Dear Colleagues,
I am honoured to welcome you to the 1st International Conference on Algorithms and Computers (IOCAC2027), hosted by the MDPI journals Algorithms (ISSN 1999-4893, Impact Factor 2.6) and Computers (ISSN 2073-431X, Impact Factor 5.2), in collaboration with co-organizing journals Data (ISSN 2306-5729, Impact Factor 2.4), Future Internet (ISSN 1999-5903, Impact Factor 4.6), and Information (ISSN 2078-2489, Impact Factor 4.3). This three-day virtual event will bring together global experts to explore innovative directions across computing, intelligence, and next-generation networks.
Technology stands at a crucial crossroads: advanced algorithms meet distributed data, and emerging intelligence converges with complex systems, driving the digital transformation of society forward. Against this backdrop, IOCAC2027 aims to bring together cutting-edge perspectives, focusing on how fundamental computational theories, secure infrastructures, and data-driven insights can deliver meaningful technological and scientific advances. We sincerely invite computer scientists, data analysts, engineers, and scholars to join us and share their insights and latest research at this inaugural event.
IOCAC2027 will feature a wide range of sessions covering critical topics in computer science and information systems, including, but not limited to, the following:
S1: IoT, IIoT and ICT Infrastructure Cybersecurity;
S2: AI-Driven Innovations;
S3: Optimization Algorithms: Theory and Applications;
S4: Evolutionary Algorithms and Machine Learning;
S5: Data-Driven Intelligence and Analytics for Complex Systems;
S6: Networking and Communication;
S7: Information Security and Privacy.
We warmly invite your participation and look forward to working with you to shape a more secure, innovative, and data-driven future for computer science and information systems at IOCAC2027.
Sincerely,
Prof. Dr. Paolo Bellavista, University of Bologna, Italy;
Prof. Dr. Frank Werner, Otto-von-Guericke-University Magdeburg, Germany.

To acknowledge the support of the conference's esteemed authors and recognize their outstanding scientific accomplishments, we are pleased to announce the establishment of the Best Oral Presentation Award and Best Poster Award.
1. Best Oral Presentation Award
Eligibility: Open to all authors selected as oral speakers who have delivered their presentation. Failure to present, delegation of the presentation to another person, or use of AI-generated voice or similar substitutes will result in disqualification.
Criteria: Evaluation considers scientific rigor (clear, literature-supported research question or hypothesis, appropriate methodology, robust analysis and critical discussion of the results), IMRaD/field-appropriate structure, clarity of presented data (clear, well-labeled figures and tables), presentation skills and audience engagement, demonstrated scientific novelty and impact.
Prize: A prize of CHF 200 and a certificate in recognition of your outstanding contribution.
2. Best Poster Award
Eligibility: Open to all authors who have presented their work through posters. Failure to present, delegation of the presentation to another person, or use of AI-generated voice or similar substitutes will result in disqualification.
Criteria: Evaluation considers scientific rigor (clear, literature-supported research question or hypothesis, appropriate methodology, robust analysis, and critical discussion of the results), IMRaD/field-appropriate structure enabling independent understanding, clarity of presented data (clear, well-labeled figures and tables), presentation skills (if orally presented), demonstrated scientific novelty and impact.
Prize: A prize of CHF 200 and a certificate in recognition of your outstanding contribution.
(Specific details will be announced before the conference.)
Announcement of Winners: The award winners will be evaluated and selected by the scientific committee after the conference. Results will be announced on the website, and all winners will be individually contacted via email.
