IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems II: Express Briefs — Minor Modification included in the Brief’s Format

Starting in September 2020, the format of the IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems II: Express Briefs (TCAS-II) has been slightly modified. Briefs submitted to TCAS-II must follow the usual two-column IEEE Transactions format, with the same page limit of five pages. However, the last column, i.e. the last half page of the brief, will be reserved for references only.

Those authors submitting their papers to TCAS-II are invited to follow this new paper style for their TCAS-II briefs. This change will be gradually implemented in September and October, so that the submissions coming in these months will be processed normally, regardless they adopt or not the new briefs style, although authors will receive recommendations from TCAS-II editorial board to adapt their works to the new format. However, this modification will be mandatory for all manuscripts submitted later than October 31.

For more details about the TCAS-II paper format, style and guidelines for authors, visit the journal website at https://ieee-cas.org/pubs/tcas2/submit-manuscript.

The Chua Lectures: From Memristors and Cellular Network Networks to the Edge of Chaos 

The IEEE Circuits and Systems Society has a long tradition of pioneering the most influential research leading to scientific breakthroughs as well as setting new directions for important technical innovations. In the 1970s through 2000s, Prof Leon Chua, IEEE Life Fellow and CAS Member, had led the world in nonlinear CAS developments, through many of his seminal publications and initiatives within the IEEE CAS Society, and most notably, his visionary work in memristors, chaotic circuits, cellular nonlinear networks, and the local activity principles. A complete exposition of his 5 decades of influential work is now available in a 4-volume collection "The Chua Lectures: From Memristors and Cellular Network Networks to the Edge of Chaos”, which is undoubtably an important comprehensive archive of his extraordinary contributions to our circuits and systems related literature. His open lectures related to the topics of this collection are also available on YouTube.

CAS Relevent Publication Venue: IEEE Systems Journal

The IEEE Systems Journal provides a systems-level, focused forum for application-oriented manuscripts that address complex systems and system-of-systems of national and global significance. It intends to encourage and facilitate cooperation and interaction among IEEE Societies with systems-level and systems engineering interest, and to attract non-IEEE contributors and readers from around the globe. For example, it publishes original contributions on how to deal with disaster response such as that triggered by hurricanes, tsunamis, or current volcanic eruptions that are not solvable by pure engineering solutions. More details on the journal scope can be found here: https://ieeesystemsjournal.org/scope/

We invite you to consider this journal as one of the journals where your systems-oriented research results can be published.

Amir Aghdam Editor-in-Chief, IEEE Systems Journal
