Empowering the Future: Innovations in Multicore/Many-core Systems-on-Chip & Embedded AI
About MCSOC
MCSOC is recognized as the global event for Embedded Systems and Embedded Mulicore/Manycore SoCs design. It offers outstanding networking opportunities for designers, researchers, tool developers, and vendors. The symposium is sponsored by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and the IEEE Computer Society Technical Community on Microprocessors and Microcomputers (TCMM). The symposium proceedings, including all technical tracks, special tracks, special sessions, and workshop papers, will be published by IEEE Conference Proceedings, which will be included in the Computer Society Digital Library CSDL and IEEE Xplore, subject to meeting IEEE Xplore’s scope and quality requirements.
All CPS conference publications are also submitted for indexing to EI’s Engineering Information Index, Compendex, ISI Thomson’s Scientific, and Tech. Pro. Scopus, ISTP/ISI Proceedings. We look forward to welcoming attendees from approximately 30 countries and territories each year.
