Norm Burns
Eulogy for Daniel Paulin, from Nexans Pierre Mirebeau Nexans
Daniel passed away March 8, 2011. Farewell Daniel When we think of him, we see the smiling face, with the cigarillos in the mouth, of a big man who calls you saying Hello my friend! Daniel lived in the area of rue Helène: a small village like a borough of Paris, close to Place de Clichy. He was born there and he was instructed there in the catholic college Saint Michel. He knew there many people: the small shopkeepers, his neighbours. He spent some time during his retirement to take care of them and the co-owners of the apartment he lived in. He liked to travel the world; for business and for his own interest, he liked especially to travel the USA where his size was found usual. He was proud to have introduced for ALCATEL the XLPE cable systems here. But the major part of his career was with lapped cables. I always remember when he was inspecting the cross channel cable, bare foot over the coiled 50km core length in the impregnation tank.
His colleagues were a second family to him. He knew the name of their husband and wife, the Established children, 1947 and Spring 2011 Meeting, St. Pete Beach, the birthday FL dates were kept in a small booklet he always carried with him. We will remind him as a professors, where he said that the "the care of the details make the difference between what works and what does not work". Let's be reminded of some works: 2002: 420 kv XLPE Insulation Cable Qualification for application in Germany ICC with D. Dubois and myself. 2001: General presentation of the new optimised 420 kv XLPE cable system ICC 1999: 400 kv XLPE insulated cable link installation carried out at Chaira pumped storage power plant in Bulgaria, with T. Torodov, F. Gahungu, P. Laventureux. 1995: 550 kv Cables Laid in Tunnel for the Guangzhou Pumping Station Jicable with J L Legue, E Vasseur, J M Couquet, 1994: Electrical Interconnection Between Spain and Morocco ICC with R Urbieta, O Kindi, And many tutorial sessions all over the world, in Brazil, Mexico, Bulgaria, Lebanon, Qatar, China, USA Farewell, our Friend!

Participants, Patents, and Duty to Inform All participants in this meeting have certain obligations under the IEEE-SA Patent Policy. Participants: Shall inform the IEEE (or cause the IEEE to be informed) of the identity of each holder of any potential Essential Patent Claims of which they are personally aware if the claims are owned or controlled by the participant or the entity the participant is from, employed by, or otherwise represents Personal awareness means that the participant is personally aware that the holder may have a potential Essential Patent Claim, even if the participant is not personally aware of the specific patents or patent claims Should inform the IEEE (or cause the IEEE to be informed) of the identity of any other holders of such potential Essential Patent Claims (that is, third parties that are not affiliated with the participant, with the participant s employer, or with anyone else that the participant is from or otherwise represents) The above does not apply if the patent claim is already the subject of an Accepted Letter of Assurance that applies to the proposed standard(s) under consideration by this group Quoted text excerpted from IEEE-SA Standards Board Bylaws subclause 6.2 Early identification of holders of potential Essential Patent Claims is strongly encouraged No duty to perform a patent search 25 March 2008 Slide #1
Patent Related Links All participants should be familiar with their obligations under the IEEE-SA Policies & Procedures for standards development. Patent Policy is stated in these sources: IEEE-SA Standards Boards Bylaws http://standards.ieee.org/guides/bylaws/sect6-7.html#6 IEEE-SA Standards Board Operations Manual http://standards.ieee.org/guides/opman/sect6.html#6.3 Material about the patent policy is available at http://standards.ieee.org/board/pat/pat-material.html If you have questions, contact the IEEE-SA Standards Board Patent Committee Administrator at patcom@ieee.org or visit http://standards.ieee.org/board/pat/index.html This slide set is available at http://standards.ieee.org/board/pat/pat-slideset.ppt Slide #2 25 March 2008
