IEEE-IEC-IEEE challenge: first prize awarded to University of Colorado for academic publication on cloud computing standardization

摘要

The IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission) and IEEE presented the awards to the winners of the global IEC-IEEE Challenge. The Challenge was launched by the chief executives of both organizations in October 2011 at the IEC General Meeting in Melbourne, Australia. The IEC and IEEE were looking for publications that challenge the perception of electrotechnology with the goal of stimulating global discussion on the role technology plays in social, environmental and political development and how universal standards influence this process. The theme, "How does electrotechnology impact economic, social and environmental development?" attracted high-level submissions from universities globally.
