ICISS 2026

The 9th International Conference on Information Science and Systems (ICISS 2026) has wrapped up its three-day hybrid gathering hosted at Westminster College, University of Cambridge, from August 27 to 29, 2026. Bringing together onsite delegates and remote participants via Zoom, the joint event united global researchers, engineers, industry practitioners and students to share cutting-edge advances across information science, communication systems and artificial intelligence.

The conference featured three high-profile keynote speeches delivered by distinguished scholars. A series of invited speeches further explored timely subjects ranging from mobile-security adversarial threats, agent-driven requirements engineering, to parameter-free clustering algorithms. Over multiple onsite and online parallel sessions, presenters delivered peer-reviewed oral papers covering rich interdisciplinary themes: generative-AI multi-agent frameworks, federated-learning-based financial risk detection, large-foundation-model-driven technical innovation, streaming-data anomaly detection, intelligent education systems and next-generation mobile-network security assessment. Each allocated presentation included Q&A exchanges, and best-presentation recognitions were awarded across individual sessions to highlight outstanding contributions.
