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. 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. Proceedings will be published electronically and will be accessible on the IEEE Xplore Digital library.
