IEEE Workshop on Signal Processing Systems (SiPS) is a major international forum for discussion of new technology progress and innovations in the design and implementation of signal processing systems. It addresses all aspects of architecture and design methods of these systems. The focus is on emerging state-of-the-art signal processing systems (Cloud/Multimedia/Communications/Biosystems) and cutting-edge design platforms (VLSI/SoC/FPGA/Multicore/GPU) for current and future challenges in research and development.
