High-level Periodical Proposal Approval Process

Detailed Timeline of Final approvals in TAB meetings

Periodical proposals must also go through the CS governance process. LOIs start with TOC or MOC, then Pubs Board, then must have final BoG approval before going to IEEE TAB Periodicals Committee.

This timetable follows if LOI is approved by the CS by our Nov. meeting

This timetable follows if LOI is approved by the CS by our June meeting.

This timetable follows if LOI is approved by the CS by our Feb. meeting.

Timeline

• IEEE TAB Periodicals Committee will be enforcing submission dates• They have noted that they will not put late proposals on

their agenda for consideration• We have always worked ahead of their schedule; now we

need to be especially vigilant• Proposers should be aware that the proposal process might

take at least a year and a half depending on when they submit• For Transactions, new journal proposal topics can be captured in

TETC in the interim and also helps meet SI requirement• For magazines, SIs can continue to be scheduled in Computer

or relevant optional title and also helps meet SI requirement
