The Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET) has announced the appointment of two new Editors-in-Chief for two of its academic journals. Professor Christian Rehtanz has been named co-Editor-in-Chief of IET Generation Transmission & Distribution, and Associate Professor Sherali Zeadally has been appointed as the new Editor-in-Chief of IET Wireless Sensor Systems.
Professor Rehtanz, who heads the Institute of Energy Systems, Energy Efficiency and Energy Economics at Technical University Dortmund in Germany, is an eminent expert in the field of electrical power systems and power economics. IET Generation Transmission & Distribution is a journal focusing on current practice and future developments in electric power generation, transmission and distribution.
The appointment of Associate Professor Sherali Zeadally, from the University of the District of Columbia, USA, will give a renewed impetus to the growth and development of this relatively new journal. IET Wireless Sensor Systems was launched to cover the research, engineering and technological developments in, and innovative deployment of, distributed sensor and actuator systems – areas which are specific to Professor Zeadally's experience, having written research papers funded by the likes of NASA, Cisco, HP and Microsoft, IBM and others.
