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 International Atmosphere at Virginia Tech, the place he researches renewable vitality, 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 carried out in various levels in additional than 100 international locations.
A prolific lecturer, Rahman has made greater than 850 shows at conferences and invited talking engagements in additional than 30 international locations. His visionary and progressive management approaches and methods have earned him world recognition.

Because the 2023 IEEE president, his essential priorities have been to place the group as a drive for change and to make it extra related to expertise professionals worldwide. Rahman feels that IEEE, because the world’s largest group of technical professionals, has each the chance and the accountability to deal with the causes of, mitigate the impression 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 expertise and engineering professionals, policymakers, and different organizations to foster a dialogue on sustainable vitality 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 printed 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 Faculty of Engineering, goals to attach the universe and everybody and the whole lot in it by designing techniques that guarantee safe and dependable data switch in a sustainable method. Her work in communications, data idea, and synthetic intelligence covers a variety of system design subjects, from community optimization to safety and privateness of data to strong and secure machine-learning algorithms in networked settings.
Of specific curiosity to Yener is next-generation wi-fi communication and the right way to 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 help human ingenuity.
Yener has been an lively IEEE volunteer for greater than twenty years, with expertise in membership, funds, publications, conferences, and outreach. She has served as president of the
IEEE Info Concept Society(2020) and is an lively member of the IEEE Sign Processing, IEEE Communications, and IEEE Vehicular Expertise societies. As director of Division IX, she advocates for deeper cooperation amongst societies by sharing greatest practices and facilitating the cross-pollination of concepts.
Yener has been an IEEE distinguished lecturer and is at the moment the editor in chief of IEEE Transactions on Inexperienced Communications and Networking. She has delivered greater than 60 technical keynotes and invited lectures prior to now 10 years. Yener is dedicated to a broader instructional impression, having cofounded the IEEE North American Faculty of Info Concept, which provides graduate college students and postdoctoral researchers the chance to study from main consultants.
