Research Themes

Symposium Themes

Five focused research themes spanning AI & intelligent systems, information systems, complex systems engineering, emerging technologies, and digital transformation.

While the symposium will accommodate a broad range of research themes across multiple tracks, the final book proposals will be more focused. We will selectively narrow down the topics for each edited volume to ensure thematic alignment, academic depth, and a structured contribution roadmap that meets the standards of international publishers.
