This is the first edition after Asilomar’s golden jubilee, and I am really honored to serve as General Chair this year. Asilomar is well known in the community as a high-quality conference where world-renowned researchers present their most recent results, in some cases even just a few days old. Some of the greatest achievements in our field were presented first at Asilomar. For me personally, Asilomar has always been this place where you can combine great lectures on exciting emerging topics, with relaxing walks, runs and bike rides in the most beautiful natural environment. The first time I was at Asilomar was as a PhD student back in 1999 and ever since I try to make it to this one-of-a-kind conference. We have a very strong technical program for you this year with a good mix of invited, regular and poster sessions. I would like to sincerely thank the Technical Program Chair Prof. Joseph R. Cavallaro and his team of Technical Area Chairs: Urbashi Mitra, Elza Erkip, Antonio G. Marques, Marco Duarte, Piya Pal, Behtash Babadi, Christoph Studer, Tokunbo Ogunfunmi, and Markku Juntti (Vice Track Chair). They all did an outstanding job in coordinating the technical aspects of this conference. This year’s program consists of 432 accepted papers, of which 191 were invited. Among these papers, 88 were submitted to the student paper contest, from which a list of 12 finalists were selected. These finalists will present their papers in a poster session to a committee of judges on Sunday afternoon, and everybody is of course welcome to attend. The top three papers will be awarded at the Monday plenary session. I am really pleased that this year’s plenary speaker will be Prof. Robert W. Heath Jr. from the University of Texas at Austin. Robert is a lifelong attendee of Asilomar and has been actively involved in the organization for many years. Robert is an authority in millimetre wave communications for fifth generation (5G) wireless technology. He is one of the few researchers in this area who spans a bridge between theoretical foundations and practical implementation aspects. Furthermore, Robert is well-anchored in the field of signal processing and can enlighten us on this exciting area from a signal processing point of view, overviewing past achievements and pinpointing future challenges. I am greatly looking forward to this plenary. Serving as General Chair for this conference was a great journey. I hope you will enjoy the conference and please take some time to experience the special environment and atmosphere that Asilomar has to offer.
