About the Journal
The Journal of Integrated Circuits and Systems (JICS) is an effort from both Brazilian Microelectronics Society (SBMicro) and Brazilian Computer Society (SBC) to keep a scientific journal intended to present state-of-art papers on microelectronics, covering the fields of Process and Materials, Device and Characterization, Digital and Analog IC Design, Test and EDA, among other relevant topics.
JICS publishes spontaneous submissions - regular papers - as well as selected papers from both Brazilian Societies annual conferences, SBCCI - Symposium on Integrated Circuits and Systems and SBMicro - Symposium on Microelectronics Technology and Devices. Also Special Issues on subjects defined by the Editorial Board are published. Acceptance of papers for publication is subject to a peer review procedure and it is conditional on revisions being made given comments from referees.
JICS publishes 3 issues (numbers) per year, with standard schedule being April (No. 1), August (No. 2) and December (No. 3).
The JICS Journal ISSN are 1872-0234 for its online version (from 2017 on) and 1807-1953 for its printed version (prior to 2017).
Please note that only original work, not published or submitted for publication in a different journal, will be eligible.
The topics of interest are (but not limited to):
_ Processes & Materials
_ Devices & Characterization
_ Modeling & Simulation
_ Analog & Digital IC Design
_ System Design, MPSOC, NOC
_ High-level Synthesis
_ HW & SW Codesign
_ EDA - Logic & Physical Synthesis
_ Technology CAD
_ IC Test and Verification
_ Sensors & Actuators (Microsystems)
