The Audio and Acoustic Signal Processing (AASP) Technical Committee promotes the advancement of technologies and applications in audio and acoustic signal processing and enhances interaction with similar organizations within IEEE and throughout the world.

Embracing the principles of open access, the IEEE-SPS has partnered with Connexions,

one of the world’s leading open education resource repositories, to develop and disseminate a critical mass of high-quality, peer-evaluated content and to make it available to anyone, anywhere, at any time, for free on the web as well as in a variety of other formats. Materials submitted to this project pass through a careful Society quality evaluation, ensuring that the content is deserving of the imprimatur of the IEEE brand for quality.

The IEEE Signal Processing Society welcomes proposals from prospective organizers of 2013 winter schools under the S3P (Seasonal Schools in Signal Processing) Program.

S3P seasonal schools are typically either summer schools or winter schools, and are geared towards providing graduate students, early stage researchers, and practitioners with background on selected topics in signal processing. For more details, please visit the full CFP.
