Program

Latest Information

Initially, we have planned to organize a hybrid conference at the Aula of our university including you, the distinguished authors, and other participants in person and to provide an additional Internet access to the conference system.
Unfortunately, the regulations and restrictions imposed by the Federal Government of Germany as well as the Bavarian Government prevent a physical meeting of external persons in the coming weeks due to a current lockdown at the University of Bamberg. Regarding the ongoing slow improvement of the pandemic situation in Upper Franconia, the  Steering Committee has now decided to arrange the conference I4CS as a pure Internet event.

We strongly regret about the reported change of our conference format. However, we want to express our hope that it may be possible to meet physically at the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Bamberg during a similar conference event of the I4CS community in the future.

All accepted papers are included in the proceedings published as Vol. No. 1404 in the series Communications in Computer and Information Science (CCIS) by Springer.

Scientific Program

Look forward to an interesting scientific program. We will have three exiting conference days with high level presentations. The conference is able to welcome high-ranking invited speakers. Come back to check any changes in the program.
