SPE 2011 - IEEE Signal Processing Education (SPE) Workshop

The 2011 IEEE Digital Signal Processing (DSP) Workshop and IEEE Signal Processing Education (SPE) Workshop will be held jointly January 4 to 7, 2011, at the award-winning Enchantment Resort . The Enchantment Resort is located 5 miles from Sedona in Boynton Canyon, two hours north of the Phoenix / Scottsdale metropolitan area and two and a half hours south of the Grand Canyon. The venue is surrounded by the Coconino National Forest and Red Rock Secret Mountain Wilderness. The area is revered by the Apache Native Americans as the birthplace of their tribe and holds ancient ruins of Native American cliff dwellings.

The goals of the workshops are to bring together leading engineers, researchers, and educators in signal processing from around the world to discuss novel signal processing theories, methods, and applications. The DSP/SPE Workshops will feature prominent plenary speakers from the signal processing community as well as technical sessions for presenting contributed papers.

Topics for the DSP Workshop include, but are not limited to:

? Sampling, extrapolation, and interpolation

? System modeling, representation, and identification; deconvolution

? Filtering and adaptive systems

? Stationary signals and spectral analysis
? Non-stationary signals and time-frequency analysis
? Multi-rate signal processing and wavelets
? Detection, estimation, and classification
? Signal enhancement, restoration, and reconstruction
? Nonlinear signal processing
? Multi-dimensional signal processing; image and video processing
? Distributed signal processing
? Implementations of Signal Processing Systems
? New directions and applications
Topics for the SPE Workshop include, but are not limited to:

? Signal processing education in non-traditional venues
? Novel laboratory, computer-based, and distance teaching methods
? Signal processing across the engineering curriculum
? DSP curriculum issues (early/late, simulation/real-time, theory/practice)
? DSP outreach issues
Paper Submission: Prospective authors are invited to submit double-column papers of no more than six (6) pages including title, authors’ names and contact, abstract, introduction, background, proposed method, results, figures, and references.
