The Electronics and Communication Engineering Department at the Institute of Technology, Nirma University organized the 9th IEEE International Symposium on Smart Electronic Systems IEEE iSES – 2023 from 18-20 December 2023. The symposium saw a plethora of researchers, academicians, industry experts and professionals from the domain of Smart Electronic Systems, Internet of Things (IoT) and cyber-physical systems (CPS), come together and present their works as well as indulge in fruitful technical discussions and exchange of knowledge. More than 150 submissions were received from all over the globe, out of which, after rigorous review with domain experts, around 105 papers were selected and 88 were presented. The experts and participants were from various geographical locations and countries like India, the USA, Germany, the UK, and Europe, to name a few.
There were in total 16 Sessions including technical paper presentations, Special Sessions, Student Research Forum, Late Breaking Research and Research Demonstrations. The technical Sessions witnessed researchers present their work in areas like Internet of Things (IoT) and cyber-physical systems (CPS), Energy-Efficient, Reliable VLSI Systems, Hardware/ Software for Internet of Things and Consumer Electronics, Nano-electronic VLSI and Sensor Systems, Hardware for Secure Information Processing and Hardware/ Software for Vehicular Intelligent Systems – Nano-electronic VLSI and Sensor Systems. The Special Sessions included research works in the domain of AI in Cyber-Physical Systems; Efficient Chip Design for Emerging Applications; Synthesis, Analysis and Verification of In-Memory Computing Designs using Memristors; IoT for Smart Villages and Smart Technologies.
Along with technical presentations, the Symposium also hosted Keynote talks by eminent speakers from around the globe, as well as two panel discussions. Six keynote addresses spanning all three days were scheduled, which included talks on Transforming Cloud Infrastructure for the AI era, Smart Healthcare – Cybersecurity Perspectives, Breaking the Thermal and Power Delivery Walls for 3D IC, Security and Privacy of Machine Learning Systems and Leveraging Spintronic Devices for Neuromorphic and Signal Processing at Edge of Network. The panel discussions brought experts from diverse fields to discuss on Growth of the Semiconductor Industry & Eco System in India and Hiring Women Engineers: Employers’ Perception. The participants also gained knowledge and understanding through the pre-conference tutorials on Smart Healthcare, Advanced SES Systems: Insights & Architecture blocks and Design Techniques for Non-Conventional Transistors, which were organized on 17 December 2023.
The 9th IEEE International Symposium on Smart Electronic Systems IEEE, iSES – 2023, provided a comprehensive platform for knowledge exchange, collaboration, and exploration of the latest trends in the field. The diverse range of technical sessions, keynote talks and tutorials contributed to the success of the event, facilitating knowledge exchange, collaboration and discussions for the advancement of smart electronic systems.
