IEEE Robotics & Automation Magazine - September 2020 - 8
resources. A community developed,
spontaneously, driven by the students.
In addition, there were several designed
opportunities for interaction, such as a
virtual version of the Lunch with Leaders event, a town hall meeting, and
asynchronous invitations to join leaders
for small chats throughout the day. Of
course, the virtual experience did not
replicate the in-person feel of a conference, but it was far better than I had
imagined. Looking ahead, hybrid conference formats-in-person meetings
combined with valuable opportunities
for virtual attendance-will certainly
gain traction, and our Society is already
prepared for this step.
The success of ICRA 2020 is due in
large measure to the heroic work of a
few individuals who brought the entire
virtual experience into existence over
just a few weeks. Our Society owes a
debt to Sinan Haliyo, Pradeep Misra,
Wolfram Burgard, Raja Chatila, Torsten
Kroeger, and Kelly Smith, all of whom
put in extra long hours in the days leading up to the conference. Our Society
depends on the dedication of its volunteers for its success; ICRA 2020 is a case
in point.
Publication News
A final special piece of news deserves
mention in this column. This year, IEEE
Robotics and Automation Letters (RA-L)
received its first impact factor. If you are
not familiar with the impact factor, the
2019 impact factor (which is published
in June 2020) is calculated as the average number of citations in 2019 of articles published in 2017 and 2018. In
2019, RA-L articles were cited more
than 3,500 times, and the first impact
factor is 3.6, earning a sixth-place ranking among all robotics periodicals. This
is an impressive debut. Again, we could
not have achieved this success without
the dedication of our volunteers, in this
case, Antonio Bicchi (founding editorin-chief), Allison Okamura (founding
deputy editor-in-chief and current editor-in-chief), Raja Chatila (who, as
president, led the effort to create the
new journal), and Alessandro De Luca
and Pradeep Misra (who together
chased the devil from all of the details).
