| President’s Message: Welcome to New Members |
|
Let me start with a warm 'thank you' to everyone who made EUSIPCO 2019 in A Coruna, Spain, a great success - not only the organizers but also everyone who participated.
By registering for EUSIPCO you also enjoy a new (or renewed) membership of EURASIP for the coming year. Welcome (back)! Thank you for engaging with EURASIP and supporting the Association's activities.
Your membership benefits are wide-ranging and valuable. Please take a look at www.eurasip.org for details.
As a highlight, I wish to mention the 10% discount on Open Access publication charges in our EURASIP-SpringerOpen journals.
EURASIP members are entitled to this discount by entering the code TC00888044 at the end of the submission process when prompted for a SpringerOpen membership account number.
EURASIP continues to innovate with new initiatives. Internally, the associations Technical Area Board is now well established, as are the Technical Area Committees.
These bodies have responsibility for EURASIP's technical leadership of signal processing in Europe and beyond. Externally, EURASIP seasonal schools are growing in number, as are our workshops and seminars.
Several EURASIP events are now being organized jointly with the IEEE Signal Processing Society (SPS) as part of the joint Memorandum of Understanding between the two organizations. A comprehensive list of seasonal schools and other events is posted on the EURASIP webpage. I want to extend an invitation to you to organize a seasonal school in your area of expertise or to encourage your colleagues to do so. Such schools are an invaluable resource, not only for graduate students but also for research engineers and established researchers. They offer the chance to discover new and emerging areas or deepen knowledge in an established area of signal processing research and applications. EURASIP has a scheme to provide financial support for events of this type. For more details, please visit the webpage.
I'm delighted that our 3-Minute Thesis (3MT) competition was such a success this year.
Held at EUSIPCO each year, it is a chance for PhD students to present their work in, you guessed it(!), 3 minutes. The winner receives a prize of 1000 Euros. Because of the very high standard of entries this year, EURASIP extended additional awards for runners-up.
Thank you once again for your participation and engagement with EURASIP.
The Association is run by volunteers and is a 'not for profit' organization. We, therefore, rely on the enthusiasm and energies of the members, like you. Please feel encouraged to get involved in activities, nominate awardees, organize a future EUSIPCO or a seasonal school, or contributing towards whatever and wherever your enthusiasm leads you. Should you have any suggestions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
In closing, let me remind you that the next EUSIPCO is taking place in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, August 24-28, 2020. The Call for Papers and more detailed information is available at eusipco2020.org. I very much look forward to welcoming you to EUSIPCO 2020.
With best regards,
Patrick A. Naylor
President, EURASIP
