Abstract
In order to solve various planning and administrative issues associated with conference workshops the idea of the IEEE Global Conference on Signal and Information Processing (GlobalSIP) as a new symposia-based fall flagship conference was born - a conference essentially with a collection of colocated symposia. Each symposium has its own technical chairs and review processes. The symposia are tied together through colocation, cotiming, a shared plenary, nonoverlapping oral lecture sessions, parallel poster sessions, and a single registration fee. The first GlobalSIP will be held 3-5 December 2013 in Austin, Texas, organized by a team led by Ahmed Tewfik and Robert Heath. There are several benefits to having multiple colocated symposia. The first benefit is the cross-fertilization of research ideas across the research community. Having broad oral sessions and interactive poster sessions in each symposium allows researchers in related fields to gain exposure to new ideas. Second, the symposia format will attract top talent in related fields that are outside our community. The symposia chairs will have the flexibility to design the symposium to match the needs of their community.
