==================================================================================================================

 

                                                        The 16th International Conference on Future Information Technology (FutureTech2021)

 

 

 

 

*********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************

 

Future technology information technology would stand for all of continuously evolving and converging information technologies, including digital

convergence, multimedia convergence, intelligent applications, embedded systems, mobile and wireless communications, bio-inspired computing, 

grid and cloud computing, semantic web, user experience and HCI, security and trust computing and so on, for satisfying our ever-changing needs.

In past twenty five years or so, Information Technology (IT) influenced and changed every aspect of our lives and our cultures. 

Without various IT-based applications, we would find it difficult to keep information stored securely, to process information efficiently, and

to communicate information conveniently.

In the future world, IT will play a very important role in convergence of computing, communication, and all other computational sciences and

application and IT also will influence the future world's various areas, including science, engineering, industry, business, law, politics, culture, 

medicine, and so on. 

Our conference is intended to foster the dissemination of state-of-the-art research in all future IT areas, including their models, services, and novel

applications associated with their utilization.
