科研費 基盤Aに課題「モビリティAIを対象としたディペンダブル・コンティニュアム基盤の実現」（PI: 鷲崎、’25-’29、早稲田大学 鵜林先生・吉岡先生、東京科学大 林先生との連携）を採択いただきました。ありがとうございます。産学連携しつつ革新的な成果を挙げられるよう取り組んでまいります。

The proposal “Dependable Continuum Foundation for Mobility AI” has been accepted for the JSPS Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (A) (PI: Washizaki, ’25-’29, in collaboration with Prof. Ubayashi and Prof. Yoshioka at Waseda University and Prof. Hayashi at Science Tokyo). We appreciate this opportunity and will continue our efforts to achieve innovative achievements in collaboration with industry and academia.

Had a great Winter Camp near ski slope. Members and students enjoyed research discussions, skiing, snowboarding, and networking!

Prof. Washizaki joined the IEEE Computer Society Region 10 Congress in Jakarta. It was great to meet all chapter leaders and coordinators, share experiences, and discuss further expansion of our community and engagement opportunities! Thank you for organizing the inspirational event.

IEEE Computer Society ‘s magazine IEEE Intelligent Systems 40th anniversary issue! I extend my deepest gratitude to EiCs, editors, reviewers, authors, readers, and all stakeholders. Thanks, the former EiC San Murugesan, for planning and organizing the amazing milestone issue! Looking forward to the next 40 years of advancing the future of AI and society together.

Thanks to the IEEE Japan Office and CS Tokyo/Japan Chapter, we held the IEEE Computer Society Standards Activities Board Seminar: Standards Development Opportunities & Leadership Experiences at Waseda University and Online. It was truly a fantastic opportunity to spread our products and services, particularly standards and SWEBOK, and reach out to larger communities. All of the talks by Mahito, Edward, Lei, and Dorothy, as well as all of the attendees, were inspiring for community members in Japan as well as globally.

Students have gone through their Graduate/Master/Doctoral thesis defense this week for this March graduation. Congrats, and good luck with future exciting professional journeys! Furthermore, there were good project research reports by undergraduates at the lab.

If it wasn’t for industry standards, every engineer would be struggling significantly more to develop and implement new technology. Many of us who have worked in computing have had to reference one standard or another, and as the industry moves quicker every year, the need to develop new standards in computer science and engineering more become even more important. But how do these standards get created? Who comes up with these? What are the hot topics in, for example, AI and Wi-Fi for standards?

Join us for a special presentation with a few IEEE Computer Society’s Standards Activities Board experienced standards experts to get all questions answered! Furthermore, the IEEE CS 2025 President will introduce its strategic areas and the SWEBOK Guide, which has been adopted as an ISO/IEC standard.
