Following on the success of the previous three editions of NEXTCOMP, the University of Mauritius is organizing its fourth International Conference on Next Generation Computing Applications, NextComp2024. We invite submissions from academia, government, and industry presenting novel research on state of the art computing technologies, as well
as case studies and implementation experiences. The conference will address new developments in theory and practice in a range of themes as per the four(4) tracks. The technical program will consist of keynote addresses and papers presented in regular technical sessions.
All conference papers undergo a thorough peer review process prior to the final decision and publication. This process is facilitated by experts in the Technical Program Committee. Acceptance of papers will be communicated to authors by email. Papers accepted by the NextComp2024’s Technical Committee will be included in the Conference Proceedings and submitted to IEEE Xplore for inclusion in the IEEE Xplore Digital Library (Pending Approval).
