The Technical Committee on Information Forensics and Security (IFS-TC) of the IEEE Signal Processing Society is inviting proposals for the third offering of its flagship workshop (WIFS 2011). Full proposals must be sent by email no later than September 20th, 2010.

The Nominations and Appointments Subcommittee for each Technical Committee will be seeking nominations for new Members, as well as the Vice Chair position for some Technical Committees. Nominations for both positions should be submitted directly to each Technical Committee’s Nominations and Appointments Subcommittee.

The IEEE Technical Activities is looking into gathering interesting technology news from IEEE Societies/Technical Councils (S/C). The S/C and the chapters/TCs under them can gain recognition when the news is publicized in IEEE publications such as the Society Spotlights and Tech News portions of THE INSTITUTE.

Brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) are devices that process a user’s brain signals to allow direct communication and interaction with the environment. BCIs bypass the normal neuromuscular output pathways and rely on digital signal processing and machine learning to translate brain signals to action.

Given the prevalence and success of speech, audio, image, and video compression algorithms in consumer electronics, it is surprising that many high-speed digital signal processing (DSP) systems such as wireless infrastructure, radar processing, and medical imaging sensor subsystems have until recently not considered compression as an alternative for reducing data acquisition bandwidth and storage bottlenecks.
