Call of Paper : IEEE-The 1st International Conference on Emerging Signal Processing Applications (ESPA)

The 1st International Conference on Emerging Signal
Processing Applications (ESPA) is primarily serving
practicing engineers and will have a strong emphasis on
applications and cutting edge practical SP. ESPA is
co-located with and follows the Consumer Electronics Show
(CES) to enable attendees to attend both CES and ESPA and
learn about SP technology in the latest products
announced in CES, as well as the SP technologies that may
help create future CES products. Attendees will learn
about emerging applications of Signal Processing
including (but not limited to):

   3D technology for gaming, telepresence
   Gesture recognition for games and natural user interfaces
   Digital photography
   4G wireless
   Robotics
   Multimedia tablets
   SP in automobiles: speech interfaces, cameras
   Voice search
   SP with multicore processors
   IPTV

Attendees will learn about the current technologies from
the major industry and academic players in the field, and
about the future directions from visionary keynote
speakers. In addition to keynotes, panel discussions on
hot topics, and tutorials, we would like to focus
attention on the following two important parts of ESPA:

   Presentations with or without an associated paper: Unlike
other IEEE SP conferences which require a paper
submission, ESPA provides the option of oral presentation
only, to enable presentations on new technologies
announced at CES. Please note that the oral-only option
requires an abstract submission and the oral+paper option
requires a paper submission, which are reviewed for
potential acceptance. If a paper is submitted and
accepted then it will be available in the IEEE digital
library (similar to other IEEE conferences).

   Demonstrations: A highlight of ESPA will be
demonstrations of novel applications of signal processing.

Presentations (without paper). Brief proposals should be
submitted including title, abstract, bio, target audience,
and contact information for the presenter.

Papers. Prospective authors are invited to submit papers,
two to four pages long including figures and references,
to the ESPA Technical Committee who will select papers
according to potential interest to industry attendees.
All ESPA papers and abstracts for presentations will be
handled and reviewed electronically.

Demos. Brief proposals must include title, description of
the demo, target audience, and contact information for
the presenter.

Tutorials will be held on January 12, 2012. Proposals
must include title, outline, description of the tutorial
and material to be distributed, and presenter contact
information.

IMPORTANT DEADLINES
 * Submission of Papers/Presentations/Tutorials                Aug. 15, 2011
 * Notification of Papers/Presentations/Tutorial Acceptance    Oct. 10, 2011
 * Submission of Demonstration Proposal                        Oct. 1, 2011
 * Notification of Demonstration Acceptance                    Oct. 10, 2011
