ISED 2011 - 2011 International Symposium on Electronic System Design (ISED)

When we think about one single thing that has caused maximum social impact, the "mobile phone" comes to our mind. Mobile phones and other similar systems are essentially embedded systems designed using system-on-chip (SoC) technology. This system consists of several heterogeneous components, such as: (1) analog/mixed signal circuits including radio frequency (RF) components, (2) digital circuits, (3) power management systems, including the battery, and (4) software. The objective of the International Symposium on Electronic System Design (ISED) is to bring experts from these fields together so that efficient design of such portable systems is made possible. The next issue that arises, is how to train the next generation of engineers to acquire the needed expertise. Thus, in conjunction with ISED, the Workshop for Engineering Scholars (WES) is organized. The proceedings of the ISED is published by the IEEE COMPUTER SOCIETY Conference Publishing Services and hence is archived in the digital libraries (CSDL, IEEE Xplore, IEEE IEL). ISED is planned as an annual event of India and USA, with first of its series starting from 2010 in Bhubaneswar, India. ISED 2010 was held in technical co-sponsorship with the IEEE and the IEEE Computer Society and application is under process with IEEE for ISED 2011.
