EBCCSP 2015 - First IEEE International Conference on Event-based Control, Communication, and Signal Processing

The last decade has witness an upsurge in the scientific interest to harness the benefits of the event-based paradigm applied to a wide spectrum of engineering disciplines including control, communication, signal processing, and electronic instrumentation. The event-based systems, in which the system activities are triggered by events instead of progression of time, exhibit certain advantages over other approaches, such as time-triggered, for instance, in the resource-constrained applications. Event-triggered architectures support activity-dependent allocation and efficient utilization of available resources like communication bandwidth, computational resources, and energy consumption. Specific application areas include energy-efficient control over wireless networks, ultra-low power clockless circuits and signal processing chains, bio-inspired computing architectures, or frame-free event-driven vision systems, to mention a few.

The aim of the conference is to provide a platform for the research communities that work in diverse application areas to exchange new research results and ideas to explore synergies and foster scientific advancement of the event-based paradigm.
