UFFC TRANSACTIONS GOES TO 12 ISSUES PER YEAR The IEEE Transactions on Ultrasonics, Ferroelectrics, and Frequency Control will be published monthly (12 issues per year) starting with volume 49 (2002). The UFFC AdCom voted at its June 2001 meeting to make this change. The figures show that the number of published papers have steadily increased over the past decade. This reflects the steady increase in the number of papers submitted. In 1993, 117 papers were accepted for publication, and in 2000, a total of 194 papers were accepted. The strength of the UFFC Transactions thus warrants the change to 12 issues per year. Authors will benefit from this change by the decreased time for their contribution to appear in print. William D.
