Call for papers/Topics

The field of Electrical, Electronics, and Computing Systems is currently defined by the convergence of AI, sustainable energy, and next-generation hardware architectures.

Topics of Interest for Submission include, but are Not Limited to:

1. Electrical Engineering: Power & Energy Systems

As the global energy landscape shifts toward decentralization, research is focusing on the "Smart Grid" and the integration of intermittent renewables.

Smart Grid & Microgrid Technologies
- Subtopics: Self-healing grid architectures, DC microgrids for residential buildings, and peer-to-peer (P2P) energy trading using Blockchain.
Renewable Energy Integration
- Subtopics: Bifacial solar panel optimization, Concentrated Solar Power (CSP) with thermal storage, and green hydrogen production via high-efficiency electrolyzers.
Electric Vehicle (EV) Infrastructure
- Subtopics: Bidirectional charging (Vehicle-to-Grid/V2G), ultra-fast wireless charging systems, and AI-based battery health management.
Advanced Power Electronics
- Subtopics: Wide-bandgap (WBG) semiconductors like Gallium Nitride (GaN) and Silicon Carbide (SiC) for high-efficiency converters.

2. Electronics & VLSI Systems

The "More than Moore" era is driving innovation in how chips are packaged and the materials used to build them.

Next-Gen Semiconductor Materials
- Subtopics: Graphene and transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) for sub-2nm nodes, and organic electronics for flexible, biodegradable devices.
Advanced IC Packaging
- Subtopics: Heterogeneous integration (Chiplets), 3D-IC stacking using Through-Silicon Vias (TSVs), and Fan-Out Wafer-Level Packaging (FOWLP).
Hardware for AI (Edge & Cloud)
- Subtopics: Neuromorphic chips that mimic brain architecture, Tensor Processing Units (TPUs), and In-Memory Computing (IMC) to reduce data movement latency.
Hardware Security & Trust
- Subtopics: Physically Unclonable Functions (PUFs), detection of Hardware Trojans, and side-channel attack mitigation.

3. Computing Systems & AI

Computing is moving away from purely centralized models toward distributed, privacy-preserving, and "agentic" systems.

Edge Computing & IoT
- Subtopics: Low-latency 6G edge intelligence, Swarm Robotics coordination, and energy-harvesting sensors for massive IoT deployments.
Advanced AI Paradigms
- Subtopics: Explainable AI (XAI) for transparency in healthcare/finance, Federated Learning for decentralized training without sharing private data, and Agentic AI (autonomous agents capable of multi-step reasoning).
Quantum Computing
- Subtopics: Quantum error correction, Hybrid Quantum-Classical algorithms (QAOA, VQE), and Quantum Key Distribution (QKD) for post-quantum cryptography.
Cybersecurity & Resilience
- Subtopics: Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA), AI-powered real-time threat detection, and Secure Multiparty Computation (SMPC).

4. Communication & Signal Processing

The transition from 5G to 6G is introducing frequencies and speeds that require entirely new signal processing techniques.

Future Wireless Networks (B5G/6G)
- Subtopics: Terahertz (THz) communication, Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS), and Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC).
Satellite & Space Communications
