LASCAS 2020, San José, Costa Rica (February 2020)

LASCAS is the flagship conference of the IEEE Circuits and Systems Society in Latin America. Since its first edition in 2010, LASCAS provides a high-quality exchange and networking forum for researchers, professionals, and students, gathering an international audience with experts from all over the world. This event is a space where the CAS community can present new concepts and innovative approaches, learn about new trends and solutions, and receive feedback from specialists in diverse fields.

The 11th edition will take place in San José, the capital of Costa Rica. The city is located in the central region of the country, a strategic place nearby the Juan Santamaría International Airport (SJO), where major government institutions, public universities, and industry converge in a metropolitan area with over two million people. The west urban area of San José hosts a vibrant business environment, encompassing the operation of more than 200 high-tech companies in fields such as electronics, software, and biomedical applications.

Important Dates:

  • Special session proposal: September 12, 2019.
  • Paper submission: September 12, 2019.
  • Notification of acceptance: November 7, 2019.

AICAS is an initiative of the IEEE Circuit and Systems Society (CASS) that brings the IEEE CASS together with the explosion of investment in artificial intelligence technology. AICAS aims to stand between ISSCC (solid state circuits) and machine learning conferences like NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, as major reference conference spanning from theory to physical circuits and systems for AI. AICAS 2020 will be held in March 23-25, 2020 in Genoa, Italy.

The topics covered by the technical sessions include (but are not limited to):

  • Circuits and systems for AI
  • Deep learning/machine learning/AI algorithms
  • Tools/Platforms for AI
  • Architectures for AI computing
  • Edge and cloud AI computing platforms
  • Hardware accelerators
  • Neuromorphic circuits, processors and systems and their applications
  • Hardware/software co-design and design automation for AI systems
  • Advanced neural network design
  • Emerging applications: Internet-of-Things, healthcare, autonomous vehicles, smart factories, environment
  • Emerging devices and materials for AI

Authors of selected best papers will be invited to submit extended versions of their work for publication in IEEE JETCAS special issue. Online submissions will be accepted via ePapers. Papers will comply with IEEE conference template and camera ready manuscripts will be checked for IEEExplore compliance. Regular and Special Session Papers length is maximum 4 pages, plus up to 1 page for references (ONLY)), or maximum 1 page for Live demos, please refer to the detailed information for authors.

VLSI DAT 2020, Hsinchu, Taiwan (April 2020)

The 2020 International Symposium on VLSI Design, Automation and Test (2020 VLSI-DAT) will again be held in the Ambassador Hotel, Hsinchu, Taiwan during April 20-23, 2020. Organized by Industrial Technology Research Institute (ITRI) and technically cooperation with the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), the VLSI-DAT symposium provides excellent opportunities for industrial and scientific researchers via presentations and discussions on innovations and achievements related to VLSI design, automation and test. It also includes various hot topics,such as AI, IoT and bio-medical electronics.

In 2020, the VLSI-DAT and the VLSI-TSA will be held in the same week with four-day overlap. In response to the need of interactions between the technology and design communities, delegates registered for either 2020 VLSI-DAT or 2020 VLSI-TSA will be able to attend the program of both symposia. Original unpublished papers are solicited. Accepted papers will be submitted for inclusion into IEEE Xplore after being presented in the symposium.
