Dear sir / Madam

It is our pleasure to invite you to participate in the 9^th IEEE International Conference on Computer Sciences and Engineering (UBMK - 2024) that will take place in Antalya Turkiye, on 26-28 October, 2024.

Aim and Scope of the Conference

The fields of Computer Engineering, Computer Science, Software Engineering, and related disciplines are rapidly changing and evolving in the countries and the societies. In order to keep up with this rapid transformation, find solutions to the challenges faced by relevant departments and undergraduate/graduate programs, and contribute to the future of the countries, the Department Chairs of Computer Engineering Board (BMBB) meetings have been organized for 28 years. This year marks the 38th BMBB meeting. To ensure that the valuable results produced in these meetings are shared not only among department chairs but also with all academics, it has been decided to organize International Conferences on Computer Science and Engineering (UBMK) in conjunction with BMBB meetings. This year’s conference, the 9th International Conference on Computer Science and Engineering (UBMK 2024), will be hosted by Akdeniz University in Antalya – Türkiye from October 26 to 28, 2024.

The UBMK conference is organized by the Computer Engineering Department Chairs (BMBB) Board and the Academic Information Foundation (ABV), in collaboration with Akdeniz University, İstanbul Technical University (İTU), Gazi University, and Atılım University.

The main objective of the conference is to bring together academics, researchers, students and public and private sector employees working in the fields of Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Software Engineering, Information Systems Engineering, Information Security Engineering, and related areas. The goal is to share new and different research, studies, applications, implementations and thoughts.

The UBMK 2024 conference will be held in-person. However, online “Remote Access” will be provided for those who cannot come to Türkiye from abroad.
