Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMRI) has been proven to be a valuable source of diagnostic information concerning heart health. One application, myocardial blood flow (MBF) quantification using first-pass contrast-enhanced myocardial perfusion, has aided the detection of coronary artery disease and provides an accurate evaluation of myocardial ischemia, an identifier of coronary artery stenosis. 

In the coming years, cities are expected to deal with an increasing number and type of services for their citizens, all having to do with overarching goals such as sustainability, environment, quality of life, energy saving, just to name a few. As the population living in urban areas is expected to double by 2050, there is a general consensus that any new process will require more than just an incremental upgrading of the cities’ organization, infrastructure, and services provided to its citizens.

The deadline for the Regional Director-at-Large Regions 1-6 nominations noted in the below message has been extended to 20 April 2018.  The nomination period for the other noted positions is considered closed.  Submission details are noted below.

So much of our daily lives are powered by signal processing technologies. They go unnoticed mostly because that’s the purpose – to help our lives run more seamlessly, with little to no impact. For example, you’re probably reading this blog on your computer. Guess what? Signal processing is responsible for your computer’s ability to store data and run smoothly.

We encourage applications from outstanding candidates with strong academic backgrounds in Mathematics, Physics, Computer Science, Engineering and related fields. At Inria we seek to increase the number of women in areas where they are underrepresented and therefore explicitly encourage women to apply.

The IEEE Signal Processing Society welcomes proposals from prospective organizers of 2018-2019 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. 

Sensor networks deployed in high-latency environments such as underwater acoustic and satellite channels find critical applications in disaster prevention and tactical surveillance. The sensors in these networks have limited energy reserves.
