* Trivandrum, India *



October 30- November 2, 2012



Venue: IIITM-Kerala, Trivandrum, India









After the success of the first World Congress on Information and Communication Technologies (WICT 2011), we are pleased to announce the organization of WICT 2012 to provide an opportunity for the researchers from academia and industry to meet and discuss latest solutions, scientific results and methods in the usage and applications of ICT in the real world.



Objective:



-------------------------------------------------



As we all know, our society has been through several dramatic changes, driven by innovations such as transportation systems, telephone etc.



Last few decades have experienced technologies that are evolving so rapidly, altering the constraints of space and time, and reshaping the way we communicate, learn and think. Rapid advances in information technologies and other digital systems are reshaping our ecosystem.

Innovations in ICT allow us to transmit information quickly and widely, propelling the growth of new urban communities, linking distant places and diverse areas of endeavor in productive new ways, which a decade ago was unimaginable. Thus, the theme of this World Congress is ‘Innovating ICT For Social Revolutions’.



The four day World Congress is expected to provide an opportunity for the researchers from academia and industry to meet and discuss the latest solutions, scientific results and methods in the usage and applications of ICT in the real world. The conference programme will include workshops, special sessions and tutorials, along with prominent keynote speakers and regular paper presentations in parallel tracks. All accepted papers will be compiled in conference proceedings published by the IEEE.
