Hayashi\n\n-\nFrom Robert Colburn\, Manager of IEEE History Cen ter:\n\nIt is my great pleasure to inform you that the IEEE Board of Direc tors has approved the IEEE History Committee’s recommendation that your proposal be recognized as an IEEE Milestone with the following citation:\n \nThe Single Chip A-Series Mainframe Processor (SCAMP)\, 1987\n\nIn 1987\, Unisys fabricated its first single-chip A-series CPU: SCAMP (Single Chip A-series Mainframe Processor) using advanced VLSI system design\, CMOS phy sical design\, silicon test\, and memory packaging technologies. By optimi zing power/performance\, resilience\, scalability\, and maintainability\, the A-series mainframe computer ran in a PC desktop form factor. Its inher ent flexibility allowed its proprietary operating system to run alongside UNIX\, and provided an architectural bridge to these Open Systems.\n\nhttp s://ieeemilestones.ethw.org/Milestone-Proposal:Development_of_Single_Chip_ A-Series_Mainframe_Processor_(SCAMP)\n\nCongratulations to you and the San Diego Section Section on this significant achievement. The approval of an IEEE Milestone is an important recognition of the lasting impact and hist orical significance of a technological accomplishment\, and IEEE appreciat es the collaboration and effort that made this proposal possible.\n\nCitat ions approved by the IEEE Board of Directors should be considered final. A ny changes beyond minor grammatical corrections will require additional re view and approval\, which could delay the Milestone process.\n\n-\nNew Eve nt Initiative: IEEE SD Innovation Forum: AI in San Diego - Kathy H. Hayash i\n\n- IEEE EPS Packaging Design and Characterization Summer School: Fund Requested 1000$.\n\nRequest Detail in Attachment.\n\nTo close the remainin g budget gap and ensure successful execution of the summer school\, we res pectfully request $1\,000 in financial support from the IEEE San Diego Sec tion.\n\nThis support will help us provide a high-quality educational expe rience\, maintain free registration for student attendees\, and strengthen engagement between IEEE\, local universities\, and the semiconductor indu stry.\n\nIn addition\, we would appreciate any suggestions from the ExCom regarding potential sponsors or additional funding sources that may be int erested in supporting this initiative.\n\nThank you for considering this r equest. We appreciate the Section's support and look forward to discussing the opportunity with the ExCom.\n\n- Sponsorship/Partnership Request: Eco NovaHacks\nDear IEEE San Diego Section Team\,\n\nMy name is Praneel Kona\, and I’m a high school student organizing EcoNovaHacks\, a two-day envir onmental sustainability hackathon for high school students taking place Se ptember 5–6 at the UCSD campus in San Diego. We’re bringing together a round 100 ambitious high schoolers to tackle real-world sustainability cha llenges using math\, data\, engineering\, and technology.\n\nIEEE’s comm itment to advancing technology for the benefit of humanity strongly aligns with the mission of EcoNovaHacks. Our event is designed to give students a hands-on opportunity to use technical problem-solving for social and env ironmental impact. By partnering with us\, IEEE would help inspire the nex t generation of engineers\, researchers\, and innovators while supporting students as they build practical solutions to urgent sustainability proble ms.\n\nIn terms of what we can offer:\n• Logo placement on event materia ls and our website\n• Social media recognition before\, during\, and aft er the event\n• Direct visibility with around 100 STEM-focused high scho ol students and their families\n• Opportunities for IEEE members to part icipate as judges\, mentors\, or speakers\n\nWe’re a student-run event w ith a lean budget\, and sponsorships start at $500. We’re also very open to non-monetary partnerships\, such as providing mentors\, judges\, speak ers\, workshop support\, or educational materials for attendees.\n\nWould you be open to a quick conversation about what a partnership with EcoNovaH acks could look like?\n\nThank you for considering our request and for IEE E’s continued work in supporting technology\, education\, and innovation .\n\n- Section Picnic - Fix date in early Septermber. Alex Rivera to lead. Volunteers needed.\n- Luau at Bahia Resort Hotel - July 30.
