International Conference on Advancements in Computing was successfully conducted for 4 consecutive years. The last three ICAC conferences provided platforms to present 80+ papers each from both local and international authors. These papers were presented under numerous tracks such as Computer Vision, Natural Language Processing, Data Analytics, Distributed Systems, Information, and Cyber Security, Information systems, Human-Computer Interaction, Computer networks and data communication, Internet of Things, Robotics & intelligent systems, and Soft Computing.  IEEE Sri Lankan section provided technical sponsorship for the conferences and more than 100 participants participated in the event.

The ICAC2023, the 5th International Conference on Advancements in Computing 2023 (ICAC2023) which is taking place on 7th and 8th of December 2023. This conference was technically co-sponsored by IEEE and provided an open forum for both academics and industry professionals to showcase their latest findings, research output, and practical deployments in the field of Computer Science and Information Technology. The primary aim of the ICAC is to improve the research culture and the quality of research conducted by researchers from Sri Lanka.

The proceeding were eminent high-profile keynote speakers Prof. Kazuo Kiguchi, Professor, Faculty of Engineering, Kyushu University, Japan and vice-president of the Robotics Society of Japan who addressed the real time human motion intention estimation methods based on biological signals such as EMG or EEG and the generation methods of artificial motion sensation using the phenomenon of kinesthetic illusion. His topic was titled ‘Real Time Estimation of Human Motion Intention and Generation of Artificial Motion Sensation’. Prof. Roshan Ragel, Professor, Computer Engineering, University of Peradeniya in his address ‘the evolving symbiosis between Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the Internet of Things (IoT)’ highlighted on emerging trends and possible future directions.

Four  workshops were conducted by Dr. Nalinda Kulathunga, Prof. Chathura R. De Silva,  Dr. Kutila Gunasekara discussing the Understanding Adversarial Learning through Generative Models and Internet of Things for Everyday Life.

More than 100 local and international researchers presented and published their research work in IEEE Xplore at the end of the successful physical conference.
