The rapid convergence of digital innovation and artificial intelligence is redefining the boundaries of what is technically possible. From edge AI and digital twins to quantum-inspired computing and neuromorphic architectures, emerging technologies are transitioning from experimental prototypes to operational systems. This conference brings together researchers, engineers, and solution architects to explore not only the breakthroughs driving these frontiers but also the practical mechanisms, integration strategies, and deployment models that turn concepts into reality.
The program emphasizes technical depth and implementable solutions across ten major technology domains, including AI-augmented software engineering, immersive XR, autonomous systems, and secure AI-driven infrastructures. Each track highlights concrete methods, toolchains, and system architectures, encouraging discussions grounded in measurable performance, scalability, and robustness. The aim is to provide participants with actionable insights and cross-domain perspectives that accelerate innovation cycles while ensuring safety, trust, and sustainability.
By fostering collaboration between academia, industry, and public sector stakeholders, the conference seeks to bridge the gap between visionary research and field-ready applications. Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of the enabling technologies, integration challenges, and solution patterns that will shape the next generation of intelligent, adaptive, and resilient digital systems.
Professionals from industry, government, and academia, researchers, engineers, practitioners, and students are invited to contribute. IntAI welcomes 1) full papers presenting significant research, development, application, position, or survey, 2) short papers on work-in-progress, 3) posters, 4) contributed talk presentations, as well as workshops, thematic sessions, and demos.
