Resiliency in Times of Uncertainty and Chaos
There is no denying that most of 2020 has been chaotic and unpredictable. We all have our challenges, from spending our days working virtually in endless Zoom meetings to helping our kids navigate the ever-changing requirements handed down by school districts. On top of the pandemic, we’ve also been through months of political unrest. In this webinar, Speaker Cheryl A. Bond Ed.D., SPHR, Founder & President of Essential Resilience, will share salient insights and principles for how Human mind works and how that understanding may be used to maintain your well-being through these times as well beyond, regardless of circumstances.
3rd December 6:30 - 8:00 pm EST

Confront COVID-19 and Climate Change Now
Both COVID-19 and climate change are global and involve temperature increases. If we wait for a crisis, it will be too late. The Stay in Place crisis response to the increase in COVID cases in March brought about great reductions within months. In this session our own Dr. Paul Carr, IEEE Fellow and Lifetime Member, will share insightful observations and trends from his unique vantage.

Covariate Software Reliability Models
and Applications
Traditional software reliability growth models enable quantitative assessment of the software testing process by characterizing defect detection in terms of testing time or effort. However, the majority of these parametric models do not identify specific testing activities underlying defect discovery and thus can only provide general guidance on how to incrementally allocate effort. In this talk,
Dr. Lance Fiondella of University of Massachusetts Dartmouth
presents a non-homogeneous Poisson process software reliability growth model incorporating covariates based on the discrete Cox proportional hazards model, which explicitly links test activities to defect discovery. For details contact

MEMBER NEWS & ACTIVITIES |

Call for Volunteers Jim Isaak, Section Chair describes unique opportunities and needs for Member Volunteers for various upcoming programs and activities. |

IEEE NH Tech Policy Topics Discussion Group and Events IEEE-USA develops positions related to US policy activities. This includes areas
such as privacy, cybersecurity, spectrum allocation, Artificial Intelligence, intellectual property, work force issues. See the full range at:
IEEE USA
New areas are emerging such as Broadband deployment and access; regulation of high tech, issues surrounding social media such as addiction, collection and use of personal data, application of behaviour science and perhaps AI to persuade individuals into target actions. If topics like these interest you, please join the
online group where we will be both announcing related activities, listing relevant resources and carrying on NH based discussions.
Events related to this activity are planned for later this year.
One when the Broadband access proposal completes the approval process.
The second is on "Net Persuasion" -- Recent documentaries such as PBS’s “Hacking Your Mind”and Netflix’s “The Social Dilemma” have highlighted the challenges that social media and similar technologies present. These suggest that abuses of our rapidly advancing technology may (and in some cases have) led to polarization, violence, devolution of democracy and civil discourse. The potential of civil unrest, autocratic take-over of democratic societies, ecological disaster, and economic demise are some of the projected impact. Screening of the Social Dilemma and discussion is targeted for the week of Nov. 16th, although members (and other interested persons) are encouraged to view both this and the PBS series before that. Separate events for student groups or other smaller communities are possible as well.
