About the theme “Connectivity”
Never have we been more interconnected, more instantaneously enabled and more empowered by the personal and professional technology at our disposal. The ability to connect from afar with homelands, mother tongues, communities and loved ones expands possibilities for us as truly global citizens.
Digital evolution is the phenomena of our age. We are always “on,” “wired” together in our global village. This universal connectivity goes from the tangible to the intangible and from the nanoscale to the mega scale.
In the realms of science and innovation, researchers can now collaborate in a multitude of new and seamless ways. Work is accomplished remotely but also collectively to better understand and solve global challenges.
This year’s topics include:
- Cognitive connectivity
- Physical and social connectivity
- Advanced networks and communications
- Cyber threats and cybersecurity
- Monitoring and mitigating threats (infectious diseases, misinformation, violence, crises and disasters)
- Machine learning and deep learning
- The Fourth Industrial Revolution
- Smart materials, devices, systems and cities
