IEEE Computer Society’s call for nominations for Members of the Board of Governors, Vice President, and President-Elect

The IEEE Computer Society has started to call for nominations for Members of the Board of Governors, Vice President, and President-Elect – leadership roles that guide the global activities of the IEEE Computer Society, one of the world’s largest professional computing organizations. Nominations are due no later than Monday, 6 April 2026 at 5:00 PM Eastern Daylight Time (EDT)/21:00 UTC. https://www.computer.org/volunteering/nomination-election/nominations

The Board of Governors brings together leaders from around the world who are committed to transformative and ethical progress in computing – particularly in addressing complex challenges such as sustainability and human–agentic AI collaboration. The Computer Society is a place where you can turn your ideas into action and help shape the future of computing. I encourage you to consider nominating yourself for the Board of Governors, Vice President, or President-Elect positions and to join us in making a meaningful global impact.

We organized AI Patterns Tokyo 2026: Seminar on Agentic and Responsible AI and Patterns in the vibrant Shibuya district of Tokyo

Back-to-back with the NII Shonan Meeting, we organized AI Patterns Tokyo 2026: Seminar on Agentic and Responsible AI and Patterns in the vibrant Shibuya district of Tokyo, sponsored by the Waseda Smart SE Program and Hitachi, Ltd. With distinguished speakers from the Shonan Meeting alongside experts from Hitachi, the seminar offered a comprehensive perspective on AI Patterns and related topics, while also exploring future directions of agentic and responsible AI. We were delighted to welcome many participants from the Japanese industry and academia, leading to engaging discussions and valuable networking opportunities. The event concluded with a memorable reception for the speakers at Shibuya Sky, Japan’s premier observatory, where we enjoyed a breathtaking nighttime view of Tokyo!

We had a great NII Shonan Meeting on Patterns and Practices in AI Engineering and Governance at Shonan Village Center

We had a great NII Shonan Meeting on Patterns and Practices in AI Engineering and Governance at the beautiful Shonan Village Center, Kanagawa, Japan, organized by Foutse Khomh, Shaukat Ali, Xiwei (Sherry) Xu, Qinghua Lu, and me. It was one of the best Shonan meetings I’ve ever attended, thanks to all the distinguished participants’ high engagement and very active discussion of AI Engineering Governance from a patterns-and-practices perspective. Its amazing achievements will be available soon as its report, followed by further activities, including book and article writing, joint research, and community expansion. Thank you all!
