IEEE Life Fellow Saifur Rahman
2023 IEEE President
Chelsea Seeber
Rahman is the founding director of the
Superior Analysis Institute and the Heart for Vitality and the World Surroundings at Virginia Tech, the place he researches renewable power, sensor integration, good grids, and good cities. His work promotes clean-tech options for local weather sustainability, and his six-point resolution to scale back carbon dioxide emissions within the electrical energy sector is being applied in various levels in additional than 100 international locations.
A prolific lecturer, Rahman has made greater than 850 displays at conferences and invited talking engagements in additional than 30 international locations. His visionary and modern management approaches and techniques have earned him world recognition.

Because the 2023 IEEE president, his principal priorities had been to place the group as a drive for change and to make it extra related to know-how professionals worldwide. Rahman feels that IEEE, because the world’s largest group of technical professionals, has each the chance and the accountability to handle the causes of, mitigate the affect of, and adapt to local weather change. His forward-thinking methods led to the creation of the
IEEE Local weather Change web site and helped foster collaboration amongst know-how and engineering professionals, policymakers, and different organizations to foster a dialogue on sustainable power insurance policies and practices. Beforehand, Rahman served because the vp of IEEE Publication Providers and Merchandise (2006) and president of the IEEE Energy & Vitality Society (2018 and 2019).
Rahman has revealed greater than 160 journal papers with over 20,000 citations. He’s the founding editor in chief of the
IEEE Electrification Journal and IEEE Transactions on Sustainable Vitality. He has additionally acquired a number of IEEE recognitions, together with the Energy & Vitality Society Service Award, PES Excellent Energy Engineering Educator Award, Technical Actions Board Corridor of Honor, and IEEE Millennium Medal.
IEEE Fellow Aylin Yener
Director, Division IX
Aylin Yener
Yener, an endowed chair professor at
The Ohio State College School of Engineering, goals to attach the universe and everybody and every part in it by designing methods that guarantee safe and dependable info switch in a sustainable method. Her work in communications, info principle, and synthetic intelligence covers a variety of system design subjects, from community optimization to safety and privateness of data to sturdy and protected machine-learning algorithms in networked settings.
Of specific curiosity to Yener is next-generation wi-fi communication and how you can create an energy-neutral digital society. She additionally works to make sure digital connectivity for underserved populations and creating honest and personal AI algorithms to assist human ingenuity.
Yener has been an lively IEEE volunteer for greater than 20 years, with expertise in membership, funds, publications, conferences, and outreach. She has served as president of the
IEEE Data Concept Society(2020) and is an lively member of the IEEE Sign Processing, IEEE Communications, and IEEE Vehicular Expertise societies.
