Introduction to the Special Section on the 2018 Asian Solid-State Circuits Conference (A-SSCC)

Abstract

This issue of the IEEE Journal of Solid-State Circuits (JSSC) includes some of the highlights of the best papers from the 2018 Asian Solid-State Circuits Conference (A-SSCC), which was held at the Shangri-La’s Far Eastern Plaza Hotel, Tainan, Taiwan, on November 5–7, 2018. As one of the five conferences fully sponsored by the IEEE Solid-State Circuits Society, the A-SSCC was in its 14th appearance in 2018 since its inauguration in 2005 in Taiwan. Rotating among Asian countries, the A-SSCC is quickly becoming one of the leading global forums for the presentation of advances in solid-state circuits and system-on-a-chip (SOC). From 2018, this conference accepts field-programmable gate array (FPGA) papers for presentation and demo and allows two-page format papers for submission and publication.
