Publications IEEE publishes nearly a third of the world’s technical literature in electrical engineering, computer science and electronics. This includes more than 148 transactions, journals and magazines published annually. In cooperation with John Wiley and Sons, Inc., IEEE also produces technical books, monographs, guides and textbooks. All IEEE content since 1988 plus select content dating back to 1950 is available in digital format.

IEEE journals are consistently among the most highly cited in electrical and electronics engineering, telecommunications and other technical fields.

Conferences
Each year, over 100,000 technical professionals attend the more than 1,300 conferences sponsored or co-sponsored by the IEEE.

From microelectronics and microwaves to sensors and security, IEEE conferences cover relevant topics that showcase the depth and breadth of members’ technical fields.

Awards
Accomplishments in IEEE technical fields are recognized with annual awards for outstanding contributions to technology, society and the engineering profession.

The IEEE Medal of Honor, the IEEE's highest award, recognizes an individual for an exceptional contribution or extraordinary career in the IEEE fields of interest. Past recipients have included such visionaries as:

• Guglielmo Marconi (1920, for radio telegraphy)
• William Shockley (1980, for junction, analog, and junction field-effect transistors)
• Andrew S. Grove (2000, for pioneering research in metal oxide semiconductor devices and technology)
