Ericsson expects the global number of 5G subscriptions to top 2.6 billion within the next six years, driven by sustained momentum and a rapidly developing 5G ecosystem. The forecast is included in the November 2019 edition of the Ericsson Mobility Report, alongside a range of other forecasts with an end-of-2025 timeline and communications service provider insights.

Average monthly data-traffic-per-smartphone is forecast to increase from the current figure of 7.2 GB to 24 GB by the end of 2025, in part driven by new consumer behavior, such as Virtual Reality (VR) streaming. With 7.2 GB per month, one can stream 21 minutes of HD video (1280 x 720) daily, while 24 GB would allow streaming 30 minutes of HD video with an additional six minutes of VR each day.

The MIPRO  General Program Chair  and the Rudjer Boskovic Institute Advisor, Karolj Skala, was elected on the 191. Election Assembly of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences by a regular member from abroad in the Class  of Technical Sciences.

 Prof Skala is a longtime associate of the Academy in the field of optoelectronics, laser communication and distributed systems.

MIPRO2019 Convention and the WS5 Workshop on “GPU Programming and Applications”, organise visits with the expert guidance to the supercomputer BURA located at the University of Rijeka. During the visit, the visitors will get acquainted with the architecture of one of the fastest computers in this part of Europe, and its application in numerous fields of science, technology and pharmacology, and the ways and the possibilities of its use.

Invitation

We would like to invite you to the 43rd International ICT Convention MIPRO 2020 taking place in the Adriatic Hotel Congress Centre, second half of May 2020 in Opatija at the Adriatic Coast, Croatia.

The aim of MIPRO 2020 is to bring together scientists, researchers and practicing engineers of the international ICT community to present papers and disseminate knowledge, technologies and skills.

Organize your conference or workshop at the MIPRO Convention

It is our pleasure to invite you to organize a Symposium, Workshop or Seminar fitting into the scope of the MIPRO Conference.

We point out that for the time of MIPRO 2020, Croatia is the EU Presidency and additionally the City of Rijeka is the European Capital of Culture. Therefore the MIPRO 2020 slogan is:

         ICT in Society, Culture, Tourism and Smart Environments

On Tuesday, January 8 2019, Prof. Karolj Skala PhD (MIPRO General Program Chair), Prof. Mladen Mauher PhD (the first chair of DE/DS - Digital Economy/Digital Society conference), Davor Salamon PhD (DE/DS Steering Committee member) as MIPRO representatives and Đuro Njavro PhD (Dean of the Zagreb School of Economics and Management) with his associates Zoran Barac PhD (Director), M.Sc. Karmela Aleksić-Maslać (Postgraduate student), Kristina Šorić PhD (Member of the Department for Management, Entrepreneurship and Digital Transformation also the representative of the Doctoral Study of Business Administration, which is performed in cooperation with Sheffield Hallam University) and Philip Vranešić MBA as ZSEM representatives had a meeting at the Zagreb School of Economics and Management (ZSEM - https://www.zsem.hr).

We are happy to inform you that all papers have been reviewed, accepted and presented at MIPRO 2018, published on IEEE Xplore Digital Library. Thus the papers are visible and accessible to the scientific and professional community. Thank you in front of the MIPRO Program Committee for participating and collaborating on MIPRO 2018.

MIPRO 2018 uses the Mobile Conference Assistant application C4me. Download C4me application on your mobile devices (android, OS, windows). A complete instruction with all options is available at: http://conference4me.psnc.pl/en/.

New chalenge for service profiting !
Business day 23.5.2018 Congress center

Dr Tamas Kiss, University of Westminster, London. Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is essential for the digitalization of the manufacturing sector. However, less than 25% of manufacturing companies in Europe profit from ICT-enabled solutions. In order to boost the competitiveness of European manufacturers (especially Small and Medium-sized Enterprises - SMEs), innovative solutions need to consider technological and commercial scalability from the beginning. From this perspective, cloudification of services has become the ideal enabler in manufacturing digitalization. Successful European initiatives have already demonstrated the benefits of cloudifying engineering services, by combining High Performance Computing (HPC) resources, computational tools, and cloud computing platforms.

Scientific interns and students attending graduate study programs are invited and encouraged to submit their papers. The presentations may contain results of scientific research, development of new products and services including results obtained in doctoral and masters’ theses. We also welcome papers with descriptions of technical, software, hardware and other solutions as well as papers which show the use of nanotechnology, ecology and renewable energy sources. Besides, there are also expected papers of experts in the field of education and education technologies. We invite chairs of european and other projects on science, research, information, technology to present their achievements and experiences. Furthermore, we would like to point out the papers which reflect on programs as a result of european cooperation. MIPRO 2018 is a technological convention opened to all of those who seek for a technological change.

Apart from the conferences there are organized seminars of lifelong learning, round tables, panels, debates, workshops and a traditional exhibition of ICT, electronic and microelectronic products, services and technical solutions. Producers of such equipment, products and services are invited  to present themselves and their products.

We are opened to accept any suggestions and ideas which could improve and widen the scope of our conference. Please contact us at mipro@mipro.hr and we'll discuss your proposals.
