VISION

Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) are central to the goals of the IEEE Computer Society and all of its activities. Equity at its heart is about removing barriers, biases, and obstacles that impede equal access and opportunity to succeed. Diversity is fundamentally about valuing human differences and recognizing diverse talents. Inclusion is the active engagement of Diversity and Equity.

The TCCLS maintains a moderated mailing list: MAIL.Acceptable posts onto this list are all information related to the Technical Committee on Computational Life Sciences (TCCLS), e.g., Symposia, Conferences, and Workshop announcements of TCCLS sponsored events, respective Calls-for-Papers (CfP).

Policies of use and membership management are outlined as follows.

Policies of Use Sending Rights

Only TCCLS members can post to the tccls-announce mailing list, however, their posts are moderated. Non-members, who wish to post their messages, have two options: (1) become a list member (see “Joining TCCLS”), or (2) send the respective message to the TCCLS chair, who may periodically process them and post them on the TCCLS mailing list. This periodicity may be around once a week or a little more in vacation periods. Acceptable posts have been summarized above.

Misuse Guidelines

An improper use of this mailing list tccc-announce may result in the following:

  • Any member of the list can post, but if they violate these guidelines they may be denied further posting privileges at the discretion of the TCCLS chair (or a delegate of him/her).
  • The TCCLS chair (or a delegate of him/her) is responsible for the supervision of the list content to insure that all content restrictions (cf. below) are satisfied. If they are not, those misuse guidelines may be applied and members may be denied further posting privileges.

The following content is not permitted on the TCCLS mailing list:

  • Any item that reflects negatively on the reputation, character, professional ability, or technical competence of anyone;
  • Any item of a sexually explicit nature;
  • Any item that disparages or demeans another’s ethnicity, religion, culture, or sexual orientation;
  • Any item that misrepresents one’s position in the Communications Society or in any other professional organization;
  • Any chain letters, political discussions, or requests for donations.
  • Any item that promotes or serves as a marketing vehicle for materials in which the TC committee member has a personal, financial, or business interest. This includes books, conferences and short courses in which the IEEE Computer Society does not have any interest, however, such items for the general good, e.g., announcements of faculty openings, fellowships, student grants, may be posted, if they are in the topical interest of the TCCLS.
  • Any item that advances the candidacy of an individual for an elected office in the IEEE (including IEEE Computer Society), which is conforming to existing IEEE policy.
  • Any item that uses one’s position as a volunteer in the IEEE Computer Society for personal gain;
  • Any item that announces or encourages participation in a venue that is clearly in conflict with any initiative of the IEEE Computer Society.This includes Call-for-Papers for competing publications or announcements for competing conferences. Since the IEEE Computer Society co-sponsors a number of publications and events, it is encouraged to seek the advice of the appropriate Computer Society personnel for further details;

Messages you send to the mailing list are either (a) distributed to the list after the moderation is done, however, without further editing by anybody, or (b) denied without any notice according to those policies stated above.
