The AGM & President's Evening

The Association's AGM takes place in the Sherfield Building at Imperial College, normally in May or early June. The proceedings include the retiring President's report on the past year and the election of the committee for the year ahead. The new President then oversees the rest of the evening. Following the AGM and a brief ceremony giving recognition to student Colours winners, a guest speaker is introduced. The talk may be engineering-orientated but could be anything with broad appeal. Drinks in the Council Room, 170 Queen's Gate and an informal buffet supper complete the evening.

2011 AGM & President's Evening

Professor Chris Hankin, our President for the current two-year period 2010-12, invites you to the Association's 2011 AGM, and looks forward to introducing you to his guest speaker, Professor Jeff Magee, Principal of the Faculty of Engineering at Imperial College.

Jeff Magee is a graduate in Electrical Engineering, and holds MSc and PhD degrees in Computing Science from Imperial. He was appointed Head of the Department of Computing at Imperial in 2004 and Deputy Principal (Research) of the Faculty of Engineering in 2008. His research is primarily concerned with the software engineering of distributed systems - groups of computers which are autonomous but also connected and operating as a network. His work on software architecture was put to commercial use by Philips in their current generation of consumer television products. His work with industry also includes collaborations with BP, BT, NATS, Fujitsu, Barclays Capital, QinetiQ, and Kodak.

Jeff was awarded the 1999 Brendan Murphy prize by BCS (The Chartered Institute for IT) for the best paper in Distributed Systems, and the IEE Informatics Premium prize for 1998/99 for a paper jointly authored with Professor Kramer on Software Architecture.
