The Hot Topics & Emerging Technologies Symposium
(HoTETS) @ AICCSA 2024 Download
The Hot Topics & Emerging Technologies Symposium is set to assemble leading minds from academia, industry, and government to sightsee the frontiers of technological innovation of Computing, Informatics, Multimedia, and Networking. In a world where rapid advancements are reshaping every aspect of human life, HoTETS 2024 aims to serve as a premier platform for exchanging groundbreaking ideas, fostering collaborations, and envisioning the future of technology.
Emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence (AI), 5G and Beyond-5G (B5G) networks, blockchain, biotechnology, and advanced materials are revolutionizing industries and societies at an unprecedented pace. The junction of these technologies holds the potential of solving some of the most pressing societal challenges, from climate change and healthcare to cybersecurity and sustainable development. HoTETS 2024 will feature a diverse array of sessions, including keynote, panel discussions with experts across various domains, fundamental, technical and poster presentations showcasing cutting-edge research, and discussing deep and innovative insights into service provisioning, security, and data privacy protection mechanisms among others.
Attendees will have the opportunity to delve into hot topics. By bringing together experts from different fields, HoTETS 2024 aims to stand-in a holistic understanding of how these emerging technologies can be integrated to create synergistic solutions. The theme for the symposium is “Transdisciplinary –Transmedia – Transformations” with a strong focus on the importance of policy and regulation in guiding the responsible development and deployment of new technologies, ensuring that their benefits are maximized while mitigating potential risks. The symposium will also feature an exhibition area where companies and startups can showcase their latest products and innovations, providing a glimpse into the future of technology.
The International symposium on Hot Topics & Emerging Technologies will be held in conjunction with 21st ACS/IEEE International Conference on Computer Systems and Applications (AICCSA' 2024) at Sousse, Tunisia.
