The COVID-19 pandemic has imposed unprecedented changes in our personal and professional lives. Governments around the world are still issuing restrictions on travel, gatherings, and meetings in an effort to limit and slow down the spread of the virus. The health and safety of our participants is our first priority. Following the advice and guidelines from healthcare officials and local authorities, the 4th International Conference on Information Science and Systems (ICISS 2021) will be held virtually during March 17-19, 2021.

We are fully aware that our face-to-face meeting is and will remain the ideal format to share knowledge and research. However, in light of the pandemic, we see the online conference as the best alternative to keep the spirit of our global community alive.

Accepted papers after registration and online presentation will be published in the International Conference Proceedings Series by ACM (ISBN: 978-1-4503-8913-6), which will be archived in the ACM Digital Library, and indexed by Ei Compendex, Scopus, etc. Registration fees have been adjusted, and participants will benefit from a registration fee reduction. For more details, please refer to the registration page.

We will be updating you as we get closer to the conference and will ensure that you are briefed on the program and how it will work in the online environment to ensure you get the best experience. We extend our heartfelt thanks and appreciation to all of our participants for your understanding and engagement. Although ICISS 2021 cannot be held physically, the integrity and quality of the research and content will remain as planned for the physical conference. We look forward to meeting you at ICISS 2021 Online!
