[comp.org.ieee] IEEE POTENTIALS' existence verification sought

rdd@cactus.org (Robert Dorsett) (05/09/91)

I recently ran a CD-ROM literature search, which turned up a journal called
"IEEE Potentials."  I have thus far been unable to locate it.  If anyone
could verify whether it does, in fact, exist, please send email.  I suspect
the title may be an abbreviated form of another publication, but I haven't
been able to find any likely candidates.

The probable areas of specialization are software engineering or simulation-
based real-time modelling.

That is the full title.  It is sent to student members and is mainly
geared towards undergraduates.

Most University libraries should have it if there is an active IEEE student
branch on campus.

Hope this helps some.

IEEE Potentials is a quarterly magazine directed toward engineering students.
It is published by the IEEE out of the NY office.  Call 201-981-0060 for
info.

Neither of the above -- it's generic EE, Comp. E, and CS for "potential"
engineers.
