**About WICT 2021**
------------------

After the success of the 10th World Congress on Information and
Communication Technologies (WICT 2020), we are organizing WICT 2021 to
provide an opportunity for the researchers from academia and industry to
meet and discuss the latest solutions, scientific results, and methods in
the usage and applications of ICT in the real world. The conference
programme will include workshops, special sessions, tutorials, prominent
keynote speakers, and regular paper presentations in parallel tracks.

In the past century, our society has been through several periods of
dramatic changes, driven by innovations such as transportation systems,
telephone, etc. The last few decades have experienced rapidly evolving
technologies, altering space and time constraints and reshaping the way we
communicate, learn, and think. Rapid advances in information technologies
and other digital systems are reshaping our ecosystem. ICT innovations
allow us to transmit information quickly and widely, propelling the growth
of new urban communities, linking distant places and diverse areas of
endeavor in productive new ways, which a decade ago was unimaginable. Thus,
the theme of this World Congress is "Innovating ICT For Social Revolutions".
