Should the term paper material be from ACM or IEEE, or it can be from other
publications?
At least 75% of references in your paper should be from books and archival
professional journals. The intention is to deal with source material that is
technically competent (via peer-review) and focused on fundamental issues (by
being exploratory rather than commercial). As long as your source material
meet that criteria, it doesn't matter much who publishes it.
It seems most likely that you'll find appropriate source material from the ACM
or IEEE, but they're not the only places. Other possibilities include
standards bodies like NIST and ITU (IEEE is also a standards body in the US)
and corporate and university research labs. Don't forget government funded
research, which is performed by corporate and university research labs but is
usually gathered together and summarized at the funding agency.
