Dear TCCC Members,
In accordance with the TCCC bylaws, I am sending this mail to remind you about
the ongoing voting process for the election of TCCC officers.
Due to the recent outage of the TCCC mailing list, the election period has been
extended to October 23, 2012 at midnight PDT.
Officers are elected for terms of two years renewable at most once.
Please note that candidates were encouraged to be considered for any office,
and that the IRV system allows for candidates to be elected for each office
independently of consideration for other offices. The nominations are as
follows. Bios of the candidates are enclosed.
---------------------------------------------
For chair:
James Sterbenz, University of Kansas rank[ ]
Dapeng Oliver Wu, University of Florida rank[ ]
For Vice-chair:
Dan Massey, Colorado State University rank[ ]
Jorg Ott, Aalto University, Finland rank[ ]
Giovanni Pau, UCLA rank[
]
James Sterbenz, University of Kansas rank[ ]
Dapeng Oliver Wu, University of Florida rank[ ]
Zhi-Li Zhang, University of Minnesota rank[ ]
For Secretary:
Ying-Dar Lin, Nat. Chiao Tung Univ., Taiwan rank[ ]
Dan Massey, Colorado State University rank[ ]
Giovanni Pau, UCLA rank[
]
Dapeng Oliver Wu, University of Florida rank[ ]
Procedure:
----------------
For each position, please rank the candidates in your order of preference
(e.g., 1, 2, 3, etc) and email your rankings to
reissl... at asu.edu<mailto:reissl... at asu.edu> with the subject field marked as
"*vote*".
Note that some names appear for multiple offices. Votes will be tallied for the
highest offices first, and those elected will be removed from consideration for
lower offices.
It takes a majority to win. If anyone receives a majority of the first choice
votes, that candidate is elected. If not, the last place candidate is defeated,
just as in a runoff election, and all ballots are counted again, but this time
each ballot cast for the defeated candidate counts for the next choice
candidate listed on the ballot. The process of eliminating the last place
candidate and recounting the ballots continues until one candidate receives a
majority of the vote.
More details on runoff voting can be found at
http://www.fairvote.org/irv/faq.htm.
If the above procedure results in a tie, ties will be resolved by randomization.
P.S.:
As a reminder, TCCC has three elected officers: (1) Chair: The Chair sets
overall direction and policy, in consultation with other officers and the TCCC
membership, coordinates the activities of other TCCC Officers, chairs the TCCC
meetings, represents the committee in the ComSoc Technical Advisory Committee
(TAC), and initiates elections for vacant officer positions. The chair, in
consultation with the other officers, also approves or denies requests for TCCC
to technically co-sponsor conferences and workshops.
(2) Vice Chair: The Vice Chair fulfills the duties of the Chair in his or her
absence.
(3) Secretary: The Secretary maintains the TCCC web page and mailing list(s),
deals with questions regarding mailing list postings and web page, arranges for
meeting facilities for TCCC meetings, announces these meetings to the TCCC
membership, compiles minutes of the meetings, and participates in the
discussions of the TCCC Officers.
