ISQED Call for Special Session Proposals
ISQED is soliciting proposals for special sessions from both academia and industry. The proposed special sessions should aim at offering a complementary experience to the regular sessions and are of general interest to the audience of ISQED. We expect that these special sessions will raise visibility on topics of focused interest scientific or application areas, establish synergies, and explore new opportunities. Emerging topics and focuses such as IoT, autonomous systems, wearable electronics, quantum computing, nano-electronic systems and machine learning are particularly encouraged, but all interesting proposals that are aligned with the core of ISQED – quality electronic design – will be considered.
Proposals are requested in the following areas:

All special session proposals should be sent to Special Session Chair, at hossein.sayadi@csulb.edu, and mimi.xie@utsa.edu and copy isqedisqed@gmail.com. Proposals will be evaluated based on the needs of the topic, the qualifications of the organizers, and the presenters of the session.
Each presenter of the contributing papers of an accepted special session can submit an invited paper up to six (6) pages covering the main aspects of their presentation in IEEE format. The invited papers will be included in the conference proceedings. For submission instructions, please refer to the regular paper submission guidelines. All special session papers will undergo the same review process as the regular papers.
The accepted special session papers will be included in the conference proceedings and will be publihsed in EEE Xplore. Each special session organizer can be included as co-author in maximum one paper within the proposed session. Note that if fewer papers in a special session are accepted, the special session may be cancelled and the accepted special papers will go to regular sessions.If you have any questions or need additional information,
