Another MIPRO convention was successfully held. At this year's convention, the 47th in a row, more than 70% of authors, and a large number of participants in other program contents were physically present.
 

This year's MIPRO was very successful with 403 accepted papers from 1062 authors from 42 countries of the world (6 continents). This is the second highest number of papers despite the increased level of review criteria. Presented papers in English will be sent for publication in IEEE Xplore Digital Library, the largest database in technical sciences, which covers one third of papers in electrical engineering and computer science (contains over three million papers). 

The central event of the convention was the formal opening held on Wednesday in the Congress Hall of the Grand Hotel Adriatic. 

There were several surprises and novelties at this year's convention. For the first time, artificial intelligence was used for translation into all EU languages as part of the opening ceremony. The first part of the opening started with the MIPRO Annual ICT Award ceremony for a significant contribution to the development of ICT. One of the winners of this prestigious award is the Nobel laureate Prof. Ferenc Krausz. This was followed by a plenary lecture by Oliver Oberst from IBM on Quantum Computing: A Quantum Leap into the Future. The opening was concluded with a round table on the topic "Smart Vision of the Future".

The entire MIPRO 2024 program consisted of 18 conferences, a plenary lecture, a forum, 2 tutorials, 2 panels, 2 workshops, 6 invited lectures and an exhibition of information and communication equipment, services and technologies.

Most of the events were held hybridly, and could be followed on 9 ZOOM channels. The convention was attended by more than a thousand participants.

 

Special thanks to everyone who contributed to the successful MIPRO 2024!
 

The next MIPRO convention will take place from 2-6 June 2025. Looking forward to seeing you next year as well! 

This year, during the official opening of the MIPRO 2024 Convention, MIPRO provides translation into 58 languages.

This year's 47th MIPRO convention, at its opening ceremony achieves significant progress in overcoming language barriers through the adoption of advanced multilingual translation technology. To reduce the dominance of the English language in international forums, this initiative strives to increase linguistic diversity and comply with the European Union’s regulations on language equality in all circumstances.
 

The use of this technology ensures that all participants, regardless of their native language, have equal access to the opening ceremony of this traditional convention. This not only enhances the experience and engagement of all participants but also sets a new standard for inclusivity at global technological events.

Utilizing the latest AI technology, the MIPRO convention leads by example, demonstrating how technology can be used to bridge language gaps and create a more inclusive environment. This initiative is a step forward in respecting and promoting linguistic diversity, aligning with the EU's vision of language equality in all spheres.

MIPRO is proud to announce this year's keynote lecture dedicated to quantum computing.
 

Quantum Computing: Making a quantum leap into the future

Oliver Oberst
IBM Deutschland, Germany

 
His lecture will cover the following areas: 

• a brief non-technical introduction to quantum computing and why it is different to classical computing, 
• a discussion of areas where we feel that quantum computing will provide an advantage over classical computing with some examples of use cases, 
• why we think that useful quantum computing is nearer than you think – with illustrations from the IBM roadmap and IBM advances over the past 12 months.

Karla Brkic, PhD, from Meta Reality Labs, Zurich, Switzerland, will give an invited talk on “Extended Reality on Meta Quest Devices” within the AIS conference on Thursday, May 23, 2024.
 

What is augmented reality? What is mixed reality? What is extended reality? This talk will introduce mixed and virtual reality on the Meta Quest 3 platform, show some use cases, and discuss the enabling computer vision and computer graphics technologies in the Meta Presence Platform that support development for mixed reality, including scene models, scene anchors and scene mesh.
