Technological advancements are happening at lightning speed, and tools like IEEE Xplore are becoming greater assets to engineers charged with bringing innovative products to market faster.

1. Working Smarter and Faster with
the Right Technical Research
Advancing Your Work with the IEEE Xplore Digital Library

2. Technological advancements are happening at rapid speed, but lengthy
processes can cause major project delays. If businesses can’t keep up with the
speed of innovation, it might mean missing out on a big opportunity.

3. For tech companies,
time is at a premium.
Engineers have to find balance
between standard processes
that ensure accuracy and the
speed in which projects are
delivered.

4. In a recent survey by ENGINEERING.com,
engineers were asked, “What is the most
important problem or challenge facing your
industry?”
38%
said market pressures
and new products were their
greatest challenges

5. Physical testing is often a requirement with new innovations, but
depends on extensive approval, setup and supervision.

6. User Case Study:
A systems engineer for a large aerospace company
needed specifics around the laser absorption of a plastic
at a particular wavelength.
This kind of physical testing can take days or even
weeks to complete and be a costly task.

The IEEE Xplore digital library is one of the most
powerful research tools for publications in
all areas of technology.

17. The platform is comprised of more than 4 million documents
from IEEE journals, conference proceedings, standards,
eBooks, and educational courses.

18. In a recent survey of IEEE Xplore
users, more than 65 percent of
respondents said that access to
IEEE content reduces their
research time and shortens
their overall project time.

19. “IEEE means being able to do my job better. It
means being able to have the most current
information in a field of interest…and it
means knowing that I have the best
information available.”
