The ICS is introducing a number of other benefits to members. The following services are available or planned for future release:
- Promotion and support of Electromagnetic Workshops, Symposia and Conferences,
e.g. COMPUMAG, CEFC, ISEF and TEAM (Testing E.M. Analysis Methods)
- Directory of members technical interests
- Electromagnetic Software standards promotion and interaction with related disciplines
- Interaction with professional institutions and learned societies
- Electronic Bulletin Board Service - Electromagnetic Forum
Members regularly receive a copy of the newsletter, which reports on all matters relating to the society.
It also contains up to date information on recent developments in computational electromagnetics.
Particular items include:
- Reports from recent electromagnetics conferences
- Introduction of new services
- Progress towards the adoption of standards and up to date news of publications from the various standards committees
- A featured technical article on important new developments by a leading expert
- Other articles covering a diverse range of subjects, e.g. standards, benchmark problems, case studies
- Reviews of recently published books
- Member’s letters
- Advertisements
- Calendar of future conferences
