A Santa Ana, California resident, Dianoush Emami is an engineer with 37 years of experience in the industry. In addition to his work as an engineer, Dianoush Emami is a member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), an organization that speaks for professionals in technology, computing, and engineering.
In August 2022, the IEEE announced its agreement with the University of California (UC) related to a read-and-publish platform that allows researchers to publish articles through open access to over 200 premier journals and magazines. As it stands, IEEE publishes most of UC’s research. Still, as a part of the agreement, researchers can now publish research in the above publications related to aerospace systems, computer science, artificial intelligence, consumer electronics, electrical engineering, and biomedical engineering.
Under this agreement, researchers can publish their findings in gold or traditional hybrid IEEE journals, even if they do not have the funds to pay for open access. Instead, libraries cover the costs (processing fee) on behalf of the author so that budget does not impede researchers from publishing their findings. In addition to funding assistance, UC scholars can access more than five million documents (scientific journals, standards, and proceedings) from the IEEE Xplore digital library.
