60th IEEE International Midwest Symposium on Circuits and Systems: Support for Student Participation, August 6 - 9, 2017. Tufts University, Boston, MA

拟议的项目将支持来自美国的初级研究人员参加将于2017年8月6日至9日在塔夫茨大学举行的第60届IEEE国际中西部电路与系统研讨会（MWSCAS）。 研讨会将为集成电路和系统的各个方面提供一个交流研究驱动思想的平台，包括电路理论，设计和实现。涉及的技术领域包括：模拟和混合信号电路和系统，数字电路和系统，通信电路和系统，射频和无线电路和系统，传感器电路和系统，生物医学电路和系统，转换器电路和系统，信号和图像处理，电源管理，功率收集和电力电子，纳米电子技术和硬件安全。研讨会将汇集一批不同的学术和行业专业人士，并将有机会讨论广泛的主题，如无线通信，雷达系统，机器人，生物传感器，网络物理系统和安全。重点将放在代表性不足群体的初级研究人员的参与上。研讨会的通知将分发给各组织的学生分会，并将向为少数群体服务的机构的有关学术部门宣布。

The proposed project will support junior researchers from the US to attend the 60th IEEE International Midwest Symposium on Circuits and Systems (MWSCAS) to be held at Tufts University from August 6 - 9, 2017. The Symposium will provide a platform for the exchange of research-driven ideas in all aspects of integrated circuits and systems, including circuit theory, design and implementation. The technical areas addressed include: Analog and Mixed-Signal Circuits and Systems, Digital Circuits and Systems, Communications Circuits and Systems, RF and Wireless Circuits and Systems, Sensor Circuits and Systems, Biomedical Circuits and Systems, Converter Circuits and Systems, Signal and Image Processing, Power Management, Power Harvesting and Power Electronics, Nano-electronics Technology, and Hardware Security. A diverse group of academic and industry professionals will be brought together on the occasion of the Symposium and will have the opportunity to discuss a wide range of topics such as wireless communications, radar systems, robotics, biosensors, cyber-physical systems, and security. Emphasis will be given on participation of junior researchers from under-represented groups. The Symposium announcements will be distributed to student chapters of various organizations and will be announced to relevant academic departments at minority-serving institutions.
