The ITC-CSCC has been originated from the JTC-CAS (Joint Technical Conference on Circuits and Systems) 1986 which was jointly organized by the KIEE (Korea Institute of Electronics Engineers) and the IECEJ (Institute of Electronics and Communication Engineers of Japan) and held at Hanyang University, Seoul, Korea, Oct. 23-24, 1986.
It started as an annual bilateral conference between the KIEE which was renamed to IEIE (The Institute of Electronics and Information Engineers) through IEEK (The Institute of Electronics Engineers of Korea) and the IECEJ which was renamed to IEICE (Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers) later. In 1988 the JTC-CAS had its title changed to JTC-CSCC (Joint Technical Conference on Circuits/Systems, Computers and Communications).
In 1996 the JTC-CSCC had its title changed to ITC-CSCC (International Technical Conference on Circuits/Systems, Computers and Communications). In 2001 the ITC-CSCC was held in Phuket, Thailand which was the first time to be held in a place other than Korea and Japan.
Currently the ITC-CSCC is sponsored by the IEICE (Engineering Sciences Society), the IEEK, and the Electrical Engineering/Electronics, Computer, Telecommunications and Information Association, Thailand.
"A History of IEICE TC-CAS Activities, Including ITC-CSCC's" is published in the Journal of the Institute of Electronics, Information and Communication Engineers (IEICE), Vol.89, No.8, pp.704-709, 2006, by Professor Shoji Shinoda, one of the founders of ITC-CSCC.
