Announcing the New IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Artificial Intelligence

Screenshot 2024-02-24 at 1.02.41 AM

We are excited to announce the launch of the IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Artificial Intelligence (TCASAI), the latest addition to the IEEE's esteemed collection of scholarly publications. TCASAI publishes contributions related to circuits and systems for artificial intelligence, including circuit and electronic system design, implementation, and demonstration. This new Transactions aims to offer a timely and important venue to fulfill the strong need of the IEEE communities in publishing research and technical contributions in this fast-growing field. TCASAI is financially sponsored by the IEEE Circuits and Systems Society (CASS)IEEE Solid-State Circuits Society (SSCS), and the IEEE Council on Electronic Design Automation (CEDA), and technically sponsored by the IEEE Electron Devices Society (EDS). The submission portal of TCASAI will be announced soon.

Scope:

The IEEE Transactions on Circuits and Systems for Artificial Intelligence (TCASAI) publishes contributions related to circuits and systems for artificial intelligence, including circuit and electronic system design, implementation, and demonstration.

Description: 

  • This publication considers original works that enhance the existing body of knowledge. Results described in the article should not have been submitted or published elsewhere. Expanded versions of conference publications may be submitted. Articles must be intelligible and must be written in standard English.
  • Peer Review: Peer review is vital to the quality of published research. Each article submitted to IEEE is evaluated by at least two independent reviewers selected by a member of the publication's editorial board. Learn more about the IEEE peer review process.
  • Publication Fees: This publication is supported by subscriptions and applicable Article Processing Charges (APCs). Although there is no cost for publishing with IEEE, authors may wish to take advantage of some of our fee-based offerings; visit the IEEE Author Center for more information on available options.
  • Errors in Published Articles: Authors who have detected an error in their published article should contact the Editor-in-Chief shown above to request the publication of a correction. Note that no change may be made to the original article after it is published in IEEE Xplore.

For inquiries, please reach out to the inaugural Editor-in-Chief of TCASAI, Yiran Chen, via email at yiran.chen@duke.edu.

Nominations for the annual awards of the IEEE Circuits and Systems Society are now being accepted. Nominations should be submitted online by 1 March 2024.

Award Nomination Forms:

It is very desirable that members who have contributed significantly to the various CAS Society activities highlighted by our awards be recognized. This is our way of showing our appreciation for their accomplishments.

Questions regarding awards and nominations should be sent to the CASS Operations Manager at manager@ieee-cas.org.

CASS Goes to Universities — Now Open to Region 7

*Note: The eligibility for the CASS Goes to University program has been revised. Now we no longer require the professor to be a CASS member for three years before the event. The presenting professor should have been in a faculty position for at least three consecutive years before the event. Non-tenure-track professors are also eligible.

CASS Goes to University is a new initiative of the IEEE Circuits and Systems Society (CASS). It supports outreach events in which professors present a technical CAS-related talk of their choice, information about CASS, and the benefits and resources that CASS can bring to the students in their own universities (a slide deck about CASS will be provided). The goal is to raise awareness of CASS among the students interested in circuit and system design and inform them about the opportunities that CASS offers for their professional development: educational material, networking activities, conference participation, travel scholarships, and much more. Minority students, including women, African American, Hispanic, and others, are particularly encouraged to participate.

This initiative will provide the following for each event:

  • A one-year IEEE and IEEE CASS Membership for the professor who makes the presentation to the students in his/her own university.
  • Up to 10 IEEE and IEEE CASS Student Memberships for one year for participating students.
    • These student memberships may be given as lottery prizes for the event to encourage student participation
  • Snack food, such as pizza and soda, for the event through reimbursement.

*For individuals who haven't renewed yet, free memberships will start in 2024 for the 2024 membership year. However, anyone who has already renewed their memberships for the 2024 membership year will be added to a promotion for the 2025 membership year (starting 16 August 2024).

This call considers proposals from Region 1 (Northeastern US)Region 2 (Eastern US)Region 3 (Southern US)Region 4 (Central US)Region 5 (Southwestern US)Region 6 (Western US), and Region 7 (Canada).

For other regions, please see the call schedule below.

Eligibility:
The presenting professor should have been in a faculty position for at least three consecutive years before the event. Non-tenure-track professors are also eligible. The students eligible for participating in the event are i) undergraduate students close to graduation; ii) graduated students pursuing their MS or Ph.D. degree. 

Proposals from other IEEE regions will be considered through the following calls as tentatively scheduled below:

Regions 1-7                                            1st half 2024 (Active)
Region 8 (Western Europe)                       2nd half 2024
Region 8 (Others) and Region 9                1st half 2025
Region 10 (Northern countries)                 2nd half 2025
Region 10 (Southern countries)                 1st half 2026

*Proposals will be evaluated on a first-come, first-served basis and approved until the budget is exhausted. Each proposal must be submitted 5 days prior to the event to ensure sufficient time for evaluation.

To ensure multiple events do not occur at the same university, please view the list of approved CASS Goes to University events here
