Editorial Special Section on Papers From the 2020 VLSI Symposium

Since 2017, the IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices (TED) has published a selection of extended versions of papers presented at the Symposia on VLSI Technology and Circuits held in the corresponding years (vol. 64, no. 10; vol. 65, no. 11; vol. 66, no. 12). Since 2018, the papers have been collected in a Special Section of TED titled "Papers from Symposium on VLSI Technology." This initiative, which was the result of a fruitful cooperation between the Electron Device Society and the VLSI Symposium chairs and committees, has brought to TED a number of carefully selected (by the VLSI TPC first and then through the TED usual review process), high-quality submissions. We have been able to continue this cooperation also in this difficult 2020, and we are therefore happy to announce the publication in the December issue (Vol. 67, No. 12) of a Special Section on papers from the 2020 Symposium, held virtually on June 15-19, 2020. A special thanks to the Guest Editors of the section, Peide Ye, Purdue University (Publication Chair, 2020 VLSI Symposium), and Masaharu Kobayashi, The University of Tokyo, Japan (Publication Co-Chair, 2020 VLSI Symposium).
