The Institute is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year. Launched in 1976, the publication was designed to keep members informed about IEEE and what its constituents were doing, as well as to report on the organization’s initiatives, technical standards, products, and services. That directive expanded over the years to include our reporting on key historical technical achievements recognized as IEEE Milestones and support for young professionals with career-guidance articles and information about educational resources. The Institute has gone through many iterations in the past 50 years. What began as a monthly four-page insert in the print edition of IEEE Spectrum became a separate newspaper published six times a year and mailed along with Spectrum in 1977, and then a monthly publication the following year. Today we publish all of The Institute’s articles online, with a curated selection appearing in our 16-page quarterly printed in the March, June, September, and December Spectrum issues. To provide members with a quick summary of the latest online news, in 2003 a bimonthly newsletter, The Institute Alert, began appearing in your inbox. You also can stay up to date by following our Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn pages. Although much has changed, an original subsection from 1976—“IEEE People”—has been maintained for the past five decades. We continue to celebrate IEEE members from around the world through our profiles, which are among our most popular articles. As the longest-serving editor in chief for The Institute, it is a privilege for me and my staff to chronicle the stories of remarkable IEEE individuals. They are often-unseen visionaries and problem-solvers who work tirelessly behind the scenes on technologies that are reshaping the world. By highlighting their careers and how IEEE has played a role in their professional growth, we hope to inspire the next generation of engineers and technologists to continue a legacy of innovation and service to humanity.

Chief Executive John Lee announced a series of innovation and technology agreements with Uzbekistan, following a visit to the Central Asian nation’s flagship IT hub on Friday. Writing on his social media, Lee detailed the delegation’s visit to Uzbekistan IT Park, a national special economic zone in Tashkent, where they met with Ayubkhon Sultanov, Uzbekistan’s First Deputy Minister of Digital Technologies. He said the IT Park serves as a core engine for Uzbekistan’s digital economic transformation, offering tax incentives and rental concessions and facilitating visa arrangements to attract tech enterprises and talent. The park, he said, is central to implementing the “Digital Uzbekistan 2030 Strategy” and the country’s national AI Strategy. The CE noted that while Uzbekistan is accelerating its economic transformation and I&T development, Hong Kong — as an international financial centre — is actively building itself into a global innovation hub. “Leveraging its world-class financing platform, professional services and unique bridging role connecting the mainland and international markets, Hong Kong is highly complementary to Uzbekistan’s development,” the CE wrote. Both places, he added, are important partners within the Belt and Road Initiative and can strengthen exchanges of development experience. Lee said senior executives from the Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks Corporation (HKSTP), Cyberport and the Hong Kong-Shenzhen Innovation and Technology Park (HSITP) signed memoranda of understanding (MoUs) with IT Park during the visit. The agreements aim to establish platforms for startup incubation, acceleration programmes and cross-border market access. Under the deals, Uzbekistan’s I&T companies would gain a strategic gateway into the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area and global markets, while Hong Kong enterprises would be able to tap into Uzbekistan’s young IT talent pool for software development and innovative collaborations. “Going forward, we can further synergise the innovation and technology ecosystems of both sides, explore collaborative projects and achieve complementary advantages and win-win partnerships,” the CE said. Lee concludes his Central Asia trip on Friday. Edited by Tony Sabine

Everything related to actual combat operations is increasingly turning into a race of technologies, Sberbank CEO German Gref said
A SpaceX contrói e opera os foguetes e a infraestrutura de lançamento que dão suporte à sua subsidiária Starlink Getty Images A SpaceX, empresa aeroespacial de Elon Musk, divulgou um preço sugerido por ação antes de sua oferta pública inicial (IPO, na sigla em inglês). Caso saia pelo valor estimado, seria a maior IPO da história. Em um documento que detalha os planos para a operação, a SpaceX informou que cada ação deve sair por US$ 135 (cerca de R$ 686), elevando o valor de mercado da empresa para cerca de US$ 1,75 trilhão, ou aproximadamente R$ 8,9 trilhões. Anunciar um preço estimado com tanta antecedência é algo incomum, e o valor representa um aumento expressivo em relação à avaliação de mercado anterior da empresa, de US$ 1,25 trilhão (R$ 6,4 trilhões), feita no início deste ano. China e SpaceX aceleram corrida espacial A divulgação não significa que as ações serão vendidas pelo preço proposto, já que isso será decidido pelos compradores. O valor pode subir ou cair. A SpaceX fabrica foguetes, oferece um serviço de internet via satélite chamado Starlink e também é dona da empresa de inteligência artificial xAI. Em geral, as empresas só divulgam o preço das ações no dia anterior ao início das negociações na bolsa de valores. A SpaceX deve começar a ser negociada na bolsa Nasdaq em 12 de junho, o que faz da sua estimativa de preço uma das mais antecipadas, se não a mais antecipada, da história do mercado de ações. A empresa pretende captar US$ 75 bilhões (R$ 381 bilhões), o que seria um recorde para um IPO. O atual recorde pertence à gigante do petróleo saudita Saudi Aramco, que captou US$ 25,6 bilhões em 2019. Se as ações da empresa forem vendidas pelo preço estimado de US$ 135 ou acima desse valor, a SpaceX se tornará imediatamente uma das empresas mais valiosas do mundo. Com isso, Elon Musk, que controla mais de 80% da SpaceX por meio de suas próprias ações na companhia, poderia se tornar trilionário. Mas esse resultado não é garantido. Segundo dados da Dealogic, empresa de pesquisa sobre mercados de capitais, em quase metade das companhias que abriram capital nos últimos 30 anos, o valor caiu em relação ao da estreia. "Não há dúvida de que a avaliação é incrivelmente alta", disse Samuel Kerr, diretor de pesquisa de mercados de capitais da Mergermarket. Elon Musk deve se tornar a pessoa mais rica do mundo com a estreia da SpaceX na bolsa de valores REUTERS Ele observou que a relação entre o preço da SpaceX e suas vendas é maior do que a de qualquer outra grande empresa do grupo que os investidores chamam de "Mag 7" — Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, Meta, Nvidia, Microsoft e Tesla, outra empresa de Musk. "Mas a SpaceX está sendo avaliada com base em receitas e lucros futuros, e não no presente, e alguns investidores podem estar dispostos a ignorar isso", acrescentou Kerr. Em 2025, a Space Exploration Technologies, nome oficial da SpaceX, teve receita de US$ 18,6 bilhões, mas registrou prejuízo líquido de US$ 4,9 bilhões. Nos três primeiros meses deste ano, as vendas somaram US$ 4,7 bilhões, mas a empresa teve prejuízo líquido de US$ 4,3 bilhões. Segundo o balanço da empresa, a SpaceX possui US$ 102 bilhões ativos, como foguetes e outros equipamentos, mas também US$ 60,5 bilhões em dívidas. Além da exploração espacial, a empresa investe pesado em inteligência artificial (IA), redes sociais, serviços de internet via satélite e centros de dados. No início deste ano, a SpaceX comprou a xAI, outra empresa de Musk, conhecida por seu chatbot Grok. A xAI começou como parte do X, antigo Twitter, e usava o acesso aos textos e informações em tempo real da plataforma para treinar sua inteligência artificial. Há anos, Musk defende que desenvolver infraestrutura no espaço é a melhor forma de garantir os recursos necessários para sustentar o funcionamento da IA, já que há escassez de terra disponível no planeta. Ele já apresentou planos para lançar satélites de IA e, no futuro, construir centros de dados em órbita. "A SpaceX já foi uma empresa simples. Era uma empresa de lançamentos, depois também provedora de internet por satélite, e agora é uma empresa de redes sociais e um laboratório de IA", disse Laurence Pevsner, sócio da empresa de capital de risco Lux Capital, à BBC. "O laboratório de IA é o que realmente está elevando a avaliação, e acho que essa é uma aposta arriscada para os acionistas", acrescentou. O movimento da SpaceX ocorre no momento em que outras gigantes da tecnologia buscam captar mais recursos para financiar seus investimentos em IA. No início desta semana, a empresa de IA Anthropic revelou seus planos para uma oferta pública de ações ainda neste ano, enquanto a Alphabet, dona do Google, anunciou que pretende captar US$ 80 bilhões para investir em IA. A OpenAI também avalia abrir capital ainda este ano, de acordo com a imprensa.

[The Conversation Africa] Uganda's environmental impact assessment system is meant to protect the environment from harmful development projects. For nearly 30 years, the law has required developers applying for approval to consider alternatives to their proposed projects, such as different sites, designs, technologies or even whether the project should go ahead at all. This is intended to make sure that the least environmentally damaging option is chosen. Biodiversity and environmental impact assessment researcher Mulumba M. Agaba
• From penalising green technology to sidelining adaptation, the government’s spending choices seem to contradict its own climate commitments • Without new budget pillars, proper risk screening, end to ‘green taxes’, country’s fiscal plans will only deepen climate vulnerability FOR a country whose economic survival is tied to shoring up its climate-resilience, the government’s budgetary allocations have failed to reflect this pressing concern. Besides measures that discourage the adoption of solar energy and electric vehicles, the government continues to invest in mega-hydro projects despite adverse ecological impacts; proposes ‘false solutions’ such as carbon capture instead of reducing reliance on fossil fuels; and leaves the adaptation agenda by the wayside despite recurring floods. The upcoming budget, according to officials from the climate change ministry, features at least eight proposed projects focused on climate resilience, afforestation, green growth, biodiversity conservation, and environmental monitoring under the Public Sector Development Programme — with a total allocation of Rs2.78 billion. However, experts have repeatedly criticised the government’s seemingly “anti-climate policies”, particularly attempts to tax renewable energy, which they believe will undermine the climate-smart policy direction spurred by recent IMF and World Bank programs. The IMF’s Resilience and Sustainability Facility (RSF) requires Pakistan to revise its public investment framework so that at least 30 per cent of the project appraisal weighting for infrastructure projects reflects climate change adaptation and mitigation criteria. In the outgoing fiscal year, at least Rs86bn worth of PSDP projects were tagged as ‘climate adaptation’, and measures worth over Rs600bn classified as ‘climate mitigation’. “This year, these numbers will increase. However, the true essence of tagging must be followed — it should be inclusive, not just a box-ticking activity,” said SDPI Research Fellow Dr Khalid Waleed. Pakistan is no stranger to climate-induced disasters. From 1992 to 2021, it cost the country $29.3 billion, according to a State Bank of Pakistan report on climate change’s economic impact. The 2022 monsoon floods alone cost at least $28 billion. By 2050, Pakistan stands to lose up to 6.5 per cent of its GDP, with agriculture and industry bearing the brunt. Both the SBP and experts agree the country is unprepared unless it climate-proofs its fiscal plans. The approach, they stress, must be rooted in science, putting people at the centre and promoting climate-smart development models. All the tools Ali Tauqeer Sheikh, an Islamabad-based climate expert and former climate change advisor at the Planning Commission, argues that while the government has all the tools at its disposal, it doesn’t seem interested in using them. The government formally notified Pakistan’s Handbook on Climate Risk Screening for Policy Planning in June 2024. Yet, in the financial year that followed, none of the around 57 approved projects underwent “necessary risk screening, in violation of the approved policy”, said Mr Sheikh, who helped develop the handbook. “The budget exercise every year is basically the dialogue of the deaf,” he said, describing the process as devoid of climate-smart proposals. Failing to climate-proof PSDP projects “increases the cost of climate action and makes populations more vulnerable”, he warned. Dr Fahad Saeed, who runs the Weather and Climate Services think tank in Islamabad, regrets that scientific evidence is missing from Pakistan’s climate policymaking. The government allocates funds for climate action before even deciding whether they will be spent on mitigation, adaptation, or loss and damage. Without a cost-benefit analysis rooted in evidence, “decisions are not embedded in science,” he said, calling for an audit of climate-earmarked budgetary allocations. Climate-tagging development Last year, the government touted the budget as “climate-focused” and introduced “climate budget tagging” under the RSF to classify climate-sensitive expenditures in line with the National Climate Change Policy. Ammara Aslam at the Policy Research Institute for Equitable Development said that while the associated conditionalities and mandatory climate screening are “present on paper, climate-proofing the budget would require a robust implementation framework”. Every department and sector, she argued, needs to transition “from broad, unallocated budgetary statements to funding specific, verifiable, climate-resilient infrastructure projects”. Dr Shafqat Munir, who leads the resilience programme at SDPI, called tagging “a good step” but insufficient in the current scenario. “IMF and World Bank programmes are helping to open the door, but they are not yet transforming Pakistan’s fiscal model.” The RSF, he noted, “is still too reform-heavy and financing-light. It can improve systems, but it cannot close Pakistan’s adaptation financing gap”. New pillar Dr Munir argued that climate change should be embedded as a standalone pillar in development planning, with new budget heads for adaptation, climate-risk financing, and anticipatory action. “Let’s move beyond budget tagging,” he said, calling for poverty-proof and climate-risk-sensitive allocations for 2026-27. His five-point priority agenda: protection of people, livelihoods, infrastructure, fiscal stability, and growth — in that order. Experts also urged the government to promote rather than tax green technologies. “Taxing green technologies does not do any service to Pakistan’s renewable energy goals,” said Ms Aslam, calling for existing and proposed duties on solar panels, battery storage, and related components to be scrapped. Mr Sheikh agreed, warning such measures could undermine Pakistan’s climate-smart policy direction entirely. Published in Dawn, June 5th, 2026
North Dakota’s elected officials are pushing hard to deploy Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) technologies to boost oil production in the Bakken before Donald Trump's tenure as president expires. The Trump administration has significantly opened up federal lands and offshore waters for oil and gas drilling, rolling back Biden-era conservation rules to mandate more quarterly lease sales. And proposals have been advanced to expand offshore drilling to areas previously restricted, including the federal waters off the coasts of California, Florida…
Artificial intelligence (AI) is driving a surge in electricity demand, prompting companies to invest in energy technologies, grid infrastructure and innovative data centers.
The US has recently launched a new battery production line, which is expected to help researchers develop safer and cheaper energy storage technologies for the electric grid. The new line is housed at the Grid Storage Launchpad (GSL), a 93,000-square-foot research facility. It is run by the Department of Energy's (DOE) Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) in Richland, Washington State. According to PNNL, the newly commissioned production line features a total of 16 pieces of equipment inside a 1,400-square-foot laboratory. It is reportedly…
