UTA LIBRARY : IEEE papers and papers published in conference proceedings and journals (transactions) can be accessed and downloaded via UTA library. IEEE/IET publications           go to IEEEXPLORE Access to over 220 e-books on IEEE Xplore. Free E-Books Worldwide sales of e-books are expected to jump from US $323 million in 2008 to nearly $9 billion in 2013, according to a forecast by the market research firm In-Stat. Aware of the popularity of digital books, IEEE is now offering members a collection of 220 IEEE e-books for free through the IEEE Xplore digital library. For more information and to see a selection of these IEEE eBook Classics, visit http://bmsmail3.ieee.org:80/u/16474/128854 The e-book collection spans a number of today's technologies across nineteen different content areas, and includes: practical handbooks, introductory and advanced texts, reference works, and professional books. -->Following content added on Feb-2-2012 IEEE Transactions on Broadcasting Circuits and Systems for Video Technology Consumer Electronics Image Processing Industrial electronics Medical Imaging Multimedia Pattern Analysis and Machine Recognition Signal Processing Audio, Speech and Language Processing IEEE Multimedia Magazine IEEE Circuits and Devices Magazine IEEE Signal Processing Magazine IEEE Signal Processing Letters IEEE Journal of selected topics in signal processing Proceedings of the IEEE IEEE International workshop on multimedia signal processing IEE (Institution of Electrical Engineers – UK) changed to IET (Institution of Engineering and Technology) Electronics Letters Journal on image processing Journal on circuits, devices and systems Pattern Recognition Letters SMPTE Magazine SMPTE – Society of Motion Pictures and Television Engineering Digital Signal processing (Elsevier) dsp@elesivier.com CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS IEEE (ICASSP, ISCAS, MWSCAS, TENCON, IP, ICME, ICIP, DCC) Picture Coding Symposium IEEE International workshop on multimedia signal processing --> End of content added on Feb-2-2012 Springer Publications http://www.springerlink.com/home/main.mpx, or access through UTA Library Click on Library Databases A-Z -> S -> SpringerLink Journal of Signal Processing Systems (very useful journal) Journal of electrical engineering Journal of circuits, systems and signal processing Journal of multidimensional systems and signal processing SPIE digital library http://spiedigitallibrary.aip.org ,or access through UTA Library
