About ESS Symposium

The ESS Symposium, organized by the Engineering Sciences Society (ESS) of the Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers (IEICE), is a flagship international symposium covering a broad spectrum of research areas in electronics, engineering, information, and communication sciences, from fundamental theories to practical applications. By encompassing diverse topics across the four ESS sub-societies, the symposium aims to encourage interdisciplinary exchange and stimulate cross-community collaboration. We invite contributions from researchers and practitioners worldwide to share their latest results, insights, and visions.
