Celebrating its 10 year anniversary, the sixth in a highly-successful series of biennial international conferences on INTERNET TECHNOLOGIES AND APPLICATIONS (ITA 15) will be held in Wrexham, North East Wales, UK from Tuesday 8th to Friday 11th September 2015.
ITA 15 is sponsored by the IEEE with papers submitted to IEEE XPlore. Papers will also be indexed in Scopus.

All accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings. The conference proceedings will be submitted to be indexed to Scopus and Thomson Reuters Conference Proceedings Citation Index (Web of Science). There will be a range of events from keynote addresses, technical and poster sessions, workshops, tutorials and for the second time we will be hosting a specially curated exposition of artworks relating to the conference proceedings. The formal sessions will be supplemented by an excellent social programme including a visit to the historic English city of Chester, a boat trip on the River Dee and a medieval Welsh banquet at Ruthin Castle.
