Call for Papers
Technical Program
The SAM Workshop is an important IEEE Signal Processing Society
event dedicated to sensor array and multichannel signal processing.
The organizing committee invites the international community to
contribute with state-of-the-art developments in the field. SAM 2018
will feature plenary talks by leading researchers in the field as well as
poster and oral sessions with presentations by the participants.
Welcome to Sheffield!
The workshop will be held at Sheffield, the "Steel City". It is the third
largest English district by population, and built on seven hills, like
Rome. An estimated 2 million trees in the exuberant city, giving
Sheffield the highest ratio of trees to people of any city in Europe. In
particular, it is at the doorstep of the first UK national park -- the Peak
District, offering breath-taking views and fantastic opportunities for
pastimes such as cycling, walking and wildlife watching.
