Scope:
-----
The ICTCC 2019 conference (co-located with ICCASA 2019 conference) sponsored by EAI, Tien Giang University (TGU) and Nguyen Tat Thanh University (NTTU) is a place for highly original ideas about how the nature is going to shape computing systems of the future. Hence, it focuses on rigorous approaches and cutting-edge solutions, which encompass three classes of major methods:

-Those that take inspiration from nature for the development of novel problem-solving techniques
-Those that are based on the use of computers or networks to synthesize natural phenomena
-Those that employ natural materials (e.g., molecules,) to compute or communicate

Its purpose is to make a formal basis more accessible to researchers, scientists, professionals and students as well as developers and practitioners in ICT by providing them with state-of-the-art research results, applications, opportunities and future trends.

We hope that the conference will receive many papers and the participation of a large number of students, researchers, and professionals from all over the world.

Original papers are solicited for the ICTCC 2019. In particular, theoretical contributions should be formally stated and justified, and practical applications should be based on their firm formal basis. Suggested topics include, but are not limited to, the following:

Topics:
------
Autonomic computing/communicating
Amorphous computing
Biologically-inspired computing/communicating
Cellular automata
Cellular computing
Collective intelligence in computing/communicating
Collision-based computing
