[802SEC] Dr. Robert F. Heile wins IEEE International Award
All
Today's IEEE-SA news announced (among other things) that Dr. Robert F.
Heile has been awarded the IEEE-SA International Award for extraordinary
contributions to the advancement of standards development work globally.
Assuming that this is indeed our Dr. Bob (could there be any other?), I
would like to extend my personal congratulations on a well deserved award.
According the the IEEE SA web page (which, mysteriously, is actually
working), the award consists of a crystal globe and certificate. There
is no honorarium attached to this award. Which means that Bob has
doubled the pay he gets for IEEE work.
Criteria for the award:
----------------------------------
This award may be presented annually to an IEEE-SA individual member who
has made an extraordinary contribution to establishing the IEEE-SA as a
world-class leader in standardization.
Examples include but are not limited to individuals who excel in the
following activities (regardless of venue or activity):
* Achieving acceptance of an SA standard for world-wide implementation.
* Harmonizing an SA standard with international market requirements.
* Interacting with national and international bodies to enhance
their understanding of the breadth and strength of the SA standards program.
-------------------
Yep, that sound like Bob to me.
Again, congratulations to Dr. Heile.
