National Workshop on Advanced Antenna Technology (NWAAT-2020)

Robotics and Machine Intelligence are the state of the art technologies for building high degree of automation. With the tremendous advancement of Machine Intelligence, especially Deep learning, the robots are getting smarter and smarter. Apart from industrial automation, the robots have a potential to help in health care automation, sharing social space with humans with emotion recognition capabilities and help differently-abled persons. The workshop will introduce the participants with the fundamental tools and techniques of the exciting area of robotics and Machine Intelligence. The workshop will also showcase the exciting fields of work and research. Industry personnel shall also demonstrate the industrial applications of robots and the technologies therein. There will be a number of hands on sessions to grasp the concepts together with invited keynote lectures from premier institutions in India and abroad.

The Department of Information Technology is organizing a workshop on Internet of Things from December 19 - 20, 2019. The objective of workshop is to equip Research and Engineering students with the essential tools for designing and realizing IoT related projects. The workshop will comprise of lectures and hands-on sessions on the following topics.

CICT “The IEEE Conference on Information and Communication Technology” is top level International Conference covering broad topics in the areas of Information and Communication Technology. This Conference is started by the five MHRD funded IIITs (IIIT Allahabad, ABV- IIITM Gwalior, PDPM-IIITDM Jabalpur, IIITDM Kancheepuram, and IIITDM Kurnool) with an aim to provide a forum for researchers, industry professionals, and academicians to present and exchange their ideas in latest technological advancements and innovations in the field of ICT. The CICT is jointly organized by the five IIITs annually on rotation basis. The CICT 2017 and 2018 was hosted by ABV-IIITM Gwalior and PDPM-IIITDM Jabalpur, respectively. The third edition of the conference, CICT 2019 will be hosted by IIIT Allahabad, India during December 06-08, 2019. The conference will feature technical paper sessions, poster sessions, and Ph.D. symposium. Website Link...

Data science is a multi-disciplinary area that uses scientific methods, algorithms and systems to extract hidden knowledge and insights from data (Structured and Unstructured). It is the study of where information comes from, what it represents and how it can be transformed into a valuable resource in the creation of business and IT strategies. Mining large amounts of structured and unstructured data to identify patterns can help an organization in many ways. Data Science is confluence of mathematics, statistics and computer science disciplines, and incorporates techniques like machine learning, cluster analysis, data mining and visualization. Hence, it is important to bring awareness among researchers & academicians and train manpower on data sciences to do innovative research work, projects, and create knowledge base.

DSAP-2019 is an initiative of IIITA to bring together the community of Astrophysics and gravitational wave data scientists with the Computer Science and Information Technology experts working in data science (Big Data) and Machine learning. This workshop will be held from 1-3 Nov, 2019.
