ICTC 2013 - The 4th International Conference on ICT Convergence (ICTC 2013)

We have witnessed fast development of various information and communication technologies in the first decade of the 21st century. At the same time, there has been a tremendous amount of efforts to fuse these individual technologies to provide non-precedent services to the end users. Also, there have been a lot of trials to apply information and communication technology (ICT) to other industrial sectors such as green convergence, smart screen& appliances, next generation broadcasting and media, mobile convergence networks, and other ICT convergence applications and services, all under the name of “ICT convergence.” ICTC is a unique global premier event for researchers, industry professionals, and academics, organized by KICS and ETRI, Korea which aims at interacting with and disseminating information on the latest developments in the emerging industrial convergence centered around the information and communication technologies. More specifically, it will address challenges with realizing ICT convergence over the various industrial sectors, including the infrastructures and applications in wireless & mobile communication, smart devices & consumer appliances, mobile cloud computing, green communication, healthcare and bio-informatics, and intelligent transportation. The conference will include technical sessions, tutorials, and invited industrial sessions. You are invited to submit papers in all areas of infrastructures, services, and applications for ICT convergence. All accepted papers will be published in the proceedings with an assigned ISBN. The proceedings will be indexed by SCOPUS and EI Compendex.
