IEEE Continuous Process• What is the continuous processing program? • This program reduces the maximum time needed to process a PAR from approximately 90 days to 25 days using email and
the Web. The time reduction is made possible through the electronic dissemination of PARs and accompanying documents via e-mail to NesCom members.
• How does it work? • When a PAR is received by the NesCom Administrator, the PAR is forwarded to two NesCom "Champions" for a five-day
review period. Upon completion of the initial review, the PAR is then forwarded to the entire committee for an additional five-day period to review the PAR. During these review periods, the project may be discussed with the Sponsor and/or Working Group Chair via email to resolve any negative comments before the NesCom vote is taken electronically. PARs that pass the NesCom vote will then be forwarded to the IEEE-SA Standards Board for email ballot for final PAR approval and subsequent sponsor notification.
• How do I submit a PAR for continuous processing? • The PAR is submitted in the same manner as for the regular NesCom meeting (see How do I submit a PAR form?).
However, continuous processing must be requested. This can be done in the body of the e-mail message sent to the NesCom Administrator.
• Is there a submission deadline and a schedule? • There is no formal submission deadline but a schedule has been posted. It is requested that all PARs to be reviewed via this
process be submitted no later than one week prior to the beginning of this process. All PARs are reviewed by the NesCom Administrator for accuracy. If a PAR does need to be corrected, the PAR will be sent back to the society liaison (with a copy to the Working Group Chair) with a request for the correction. Any correction not received prior to the beginning of the program will automatically defer the PAR until the next regularly scheduled NesCom meeting.
• As the Sponsor and/or Working Group Chair, what are my responsibilities during this process? • During this process, NesCom requires that the Sponsor and/or Working Group Chair be available to clarify any issues that
may arise.• How do I know when my PAR is approved? • Once the PAR has been approved by NesCom, it is forwarded to the IEEE-SA Standards Board for email ballot for final
PAR approval. Once approval has been obtained, the sponsor and working group chair will be notified via email.

• IEEE-SA Pilot Program Aims for Accelerated Standards Project Approval
• (Piscataway NJ - 9 November) A six-month pilot program for continuous processing and electronic dissemination of Project Authorization Requests (PARs) was approved by the IEEE-SA Standards Board in September 1999. The program endeavors to reduce the maximum time needed to process a PAR from approximately 90 days to 30 days using email and the WEB.
• The time reduction will be made possible through the electronic dissemination of PARs and accompanying documents via e-mail to NesCom members. When a PAR is received by the NesCom Administrator, the PAR is forwarded to two NesCom "Champions" for a five-day review period. Upon completion of the initial review, the PAR is then forwarded to the entire committee for an additional five-day period to review the PAR and, if necessary, discuss the project with the Sponsor via email to resolve any negative comments before the NesCom vote is taken electronically. PARs that pass the NesCom vote will then be forwarded to the IEEE-SA Standards Board for email ballot for final PAR approval and subsequent sponsor notification.
• According to Jim Carlo, chair of NesCom, "This continuous processing of PARS is part of the NesCom 2000 initiative to both increase the response time of PAR approvals (to 30 days) as well as to ensure that all PARs have maximum exposure to different groups over the WEB. Jodi Haasz, NesCom Administrator of the IEEE-SA Staff, is making maximum usage of the World Wide Internet capability to put added value into the words of the IEEE slogan "Networking the World".

Rev Com Summary
• 4.2.3 Standards Review Committee (RevCom)• This committee acts in an advisory capacity to the IEEE-SA Standards Board by making
recommendations on the approval or disapproval of standards submitted for IEEE-SA Standards Board approval or adoption.
• Approval or adoption of a standard requires a consensus of RevCom that the requirements of the procedures of RevCom and those of the IEEE-SA Standards Board have been satisfied. Specifically, this means that the final results of the ballot and statements submitted by balloters who participated in the development of the standard indicate that consensus has been achieved and unresolved negative ballots have been properly considered, together with reasons why the comments could not be resolved.
• 4.2.3.1 RevCom agenda• A preliminary agenda for each RevCom meeting shall be prepared by the Secretary of the
IEEE-SA Standards Board or a designated person and distributed to RevCom members at least 30 days prior to a scheduled meeting of RevCom. Included with the agenda shall be a list of all proposed standards to be presented to the IEEE-SA Standards Board for approval. At the same time the agenda, without supporting documentation, shall be sent to all members of the IEEE-SA Standards Board, liaison representatives, and other organizations and persons. The agenda is to be sent to all persons and organizations that have expressed an interest in the standards activities of the IEEE.

Submission
Rev Com Expectations
• All requests for approval of a standard shall be reviewed by RevCom to ensure that the submittal is complete and that appropriate IEEE procedures are followed completely and correctly (see the IEEE-SA Standards Board Working Guide for Submittal of Proposed Standards).
• Examples of some of the points that must be carefully analyzed are given in the following paragraphs:
• Title of Document. The title on the draft document and submittal form shall be within the scope as stated on the most recently approved PAR, or action(s) shall be taken to ensure this.
• Coordination. Mandatory coordination comments shall be addressed. If the Sponsor believes that satisfying specific mandatory coordination comments will impede the utility of the draft standard, appropriate documentation of this position shall be presented to RevCom.
• Ballot Summary. A ballot summary of the vote of the members is required, e.g., showing the classification of members of the balloting group and including comments accompanying unresolved negative ballots. For complete details, see 5.4.1 and 5.4.3.2.
• Balloting Group. The balloting group shall be formulated according to 5.4.1. • Classification of Balloting Body. Classification of the balloting body shall be in accordance with
5.4.1.

• 4.2.6 Continuous processing of IEEE-SA Standards Board and committee agenda items
• In order to reduce the time involved in standards development, the IEEE-SA Standards Board and its committees may use continuous processing through electronic technologies to consider appropriate agenda items. Each agenda item to be considered under this methodology shall be carefully appraised as to its suitability for this process. The IEEE-SA Standards Board and its committees should establish means for continuous processing according to their unique needs. These methods are publicly available by contacting the Secretary of the IEEE-SA Standards Board.
• Any votes taken by the IEEE-SA Standards Board during continuous processing are subject to the provisions stated in subclause 5.1 of the IEEE-SA Standards Board Bylaws.

4. IEEE STANDARDS DEPARTMENT PROCESSING OF THE SUBMITTAL
• 4. IEEE STANDARDS DEPARTMENT PROCESSING OF THE SUBMITTAL • The proposed standard, Form for Submittal of Proposed Standards, and all supporting documentation shall be
submitted to the IEEE Standards Department for distribution by the submittal deadline [i.e., no less than 40 calendar days prior to the IEEE-SA Standards Board meeting for the first three quarterly meetings of the year; no less than 50 calendar days prior to the IEEE-SA Standards Board meeting for the last quarterly meeting of the year.]
• RevCom will consider reviewing a project if a recirculation ballot is in progress at the specified submittal deadline provided the text of the recirculated draft and all documentation except ballot results of the recirculation are submitted by the submittal deadline. The documentation must include resolution of negative ballots resulting from prior ballots. There shall be no negative votes on new issues, but additional negatives on prior issues are allowed provided the 75% affirmative required for approval is achieved.
• The Sponsor shall review results of the recirculation ballot and, if the above conditions are met, may submit results of the recirculation ballot to the RevCom Administrator no later than 25 days before the IEEE-SA Standards Board meeting. The RevCom Administrator will transmit the results of the recirculation ballot to the members of RevCom no later than 15 days before the IEEE-SA Standards Board meeting.
• RevCom will submit comments electronically to the Administrator. These comments will be forwarded to the submitter for consideration and reply. All documentation, including the replies to the comments, will be considered at the meeting. The recommendation of RevCom will be presented to the IEEE-SA Standards Board for final action. The submitter will be notified of the action taken.
• Once approved by the IEEE-SA Standards Board, the Standards Department will make formal application to ANSI for recognition as an American National Standard.
• RevCom will not consider a submittal if the recirculation commences after the submittal deadline. These submittals should be considered at a future RevCom meeting.

RevCom (Standards Review Committee)• All requests for approval of a standard shall be reviewed by RevCom prior to
submission to the IEEE SA Standards Board to ensure that the submittal is complete and that appropriate IEEE procedures are followed completely and correctly (see the IEEE-SA Standards Board Working Guide for Submittal of Proposed Standards). The IEEE-SA Standards Board has assigned to RevCom the review of standards submittals and the responsibility for recommending final approval to the IEEE-SA Standards Board.
• Approval or adoption of a standard requires a consensus of RevCom that the requirements of the procedures of RevCom and those of the IEEE-SA Standards Board (IEEE-SA Standards Board Bylaws and IEEE-SA Standards Board Operations Manual ) have been satisfied. Specifically, this means that the final results of the ballot and statements submitted by balloters who participated in the development of the standard indicate that consensus has been achieved and unresolved negative ballots have been properly considered, together with reasons why the comments could not be resolved.
• All IEEE standards shall be approved by the IEEE-SA Standards Board prior to publication. Approval requires a majority vote of the IEEE-SA Standards Board .
• 3 Meetings per year : March, June, September
