ISSPA 2012 is the eleventh event in the series of conferences, which since 1985 has brought together leading researchers and practitioners from academia and industry engaged in research and development related to signal processing theory and applications. In 2007, ISSPA extended its coverage to include the complementary field of Information Sciences.

ISSPA 2012 is co-organized by The University of Quebec’s Ecole de technologie supérieure and international universities around the world including the University of Queensland, Australia, Telecom Paris Tech (ENST), and Qatar University.

The regular technical program will run for three days along with an exhibition of signal processing products and research. In addition, a number of tutorial sessions will be scheduled one day before the conference starts.
Prospective authors are invited to submit full length (four pages) papers via the conference website for presentation in any of the areas listed below. We also encourage the submission of proposals for tutorial sessions on the related topics. All submitted papers must include clearly the selected area and all papers will be subjected to a blind peer-review process.
