The organizing committee was established by the Department of Computer Science in May 2020 and started planning everything meticulously from then onwards. This is our first collaboration with Springer as our publication partner. The proceedings agreement was signed by the Department of Computer Science and Springer in December 2020, and from that moment, ICSAC team has been effectively and actively involved, in making this conference successful in every possible way.
We received 388 research articles through Easy Chair portal from all over India as well as from countries like Srilanka, Malaysia, Sultanate of Oman and United States of America. To ensure the quality of the conference, we had national and International academic experts and professionals as our reviewers.
