In conjunction with the International Symposium on Signal Processing and its Applications (ISSPA) and "Ecole National Polytechnique (ENP)", the International Summer School on Signal Processing and its Applications (ISSSPA) was set up initially to promote the signal processing research activities in developing countries taking into account the need of such scientific events in the Maghreb region.

ISSSPA is emerging as a summer school dedicated to signal and image processing research. It is a forum that gathers well known researchers and PhD students from universities and industrial groups involved in the development of new applications of Digital Signal Processing.

Areas of interest include topics such as:
• Satellite, Radar & Sonar processing.
• Digital Signal Processing (DSP).
• Signal Processing in Geophysics (Seismic Signal Processing, Petroleum Prospecting).
• Stochastic processes in power systems.
• VLSI for Signal & Image Processing.
• Biomedical Signal & Image Processing.
• Biometric Systems & Security.
• Image Processing
• (Filtering, Segmentation, Classification
• Time frequency signal processing,
• DSP for Telecommunications, and
• Signal processing using neural networks.

The applications are oriented toward the above mentioned fields.

The first ISSSPA took place at "Ecole Nationale Polytechnique, Algiers’2004", the second at the University Abdelhamid Ibn Badis, Mostaganem’2005 and the third at the University of Jijel, Jijel’2006.
For the 2007 ISSSPA session, the Steering Committee favored Boumerdes University to host the fourth edition from June 30th to July 04, 2007.
Former editions can be found in the indicated websites.

The objectives of the International Summer School on Signal Processing and its Applications, ISSSPA are
To allow meetings for ideas exchanges,
To share the experiences between researchers.
It is also meant:
To be a fertile ground for learning where doctorate students are given opportunities to present and discuss the results of their search in poster sessions, and
To obtain experts’ feedback, and
To learn about the state of the art in the fields of interest. 

The 4th International Summer school on signal Processing and it's applications ISSSPA'2007 will be held at the University of M'hamed Bougara Boumerdès, is located 40 km to the east  of Algiers, capital of Algeria.
