Guest Editorial Special Issue on the 2019 IEEE International Symposium on Circuits and Systems

Abstract

This special issue of the IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems—Part II: Express Briefs ( TCAS-II ) follows the successful co-publication initiative started last year by the IEEE Circuits and Systems Society (CASS) to publish a selection of the best papers accepted for presentation at the IEEE International Symposium on Circuits and Systems (ISCAS), held this year in Sapporo, Japan, on May 26–29. As TCAS-II only publishes five-page briefs, and hence both conference and journal versions of selected works would be largely overlapped, the papers included in this issue represent the only record published in IEEE Xplore and they will not appear in the Proceedings of IEEE ISCAS , which will however contain DOI links to the corresponding TCAS-II papers. Similar to other IEEE societies, IEEE-CASS intends to shift the role of IEEE conferences toward networking events as well as a scientific discussion opportunity, rather than putting the emphasis on the conference paper publication itself.
