Overview

PlatCon-26 will be the 12th event of the PlatCon conference series, co-hosted by the Institution of Creative Research Professionals (ICRP) and National Center of Excellence in Software, Shinhan University. This year's event will be technically co-sponsored by IEEE Busan section. This conference will be one of the most comprehensive conferences in the field of Platform Technology (PT). The main focus of PlatCon-26 is various research issues in Platform Technology; however its scope also extends to a wide spectrum of topics related to Computer Science and ICT platforms and their service domains. PlatCon-26 will be a professional and informative forum for scientists, engineers, experts, professors, and students in the areas of Computer Science, Information Technology, Computing Technology, Communication and Networking, HCI, Business and Management, Intelligent Systems, Cybersecurity, Industrial Security, Cyber-Physical Systems, Educational Technology, IT-based convergence research fields, as well as multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary research fields.

Over the last decade, many countries have adopted roadmaps for developing future infrastructure in emerging platform technology areas such as automobiles, big data processing, biotechnology, nanotechnology, grid computing, and ICT (Information and Communication Technology). Our special interest lies in both theoretical and practical research contributions, including new techniques, concepts, or analyses; reports on implementation experiences and experimental results; and tutorials on emerging technologies and trends in platform and service areas, as well as related scientific and engineering fields.

PlatCon-26 is the next event in a series of highly successful International Conferences on Platform Technology and Service, previously held as PlatCon-25 (Jeju, Korea, Aug. 2025), PlatCon-24 (Jeju, Korea, Aug. 2024), PlatCon-23 (Busan, Korea, Aug. 2023), PlatCon-22 (Jeju, Korea, Aug. 2022), PlatCon-21 (Jeju, Korea, Aug. 2021), PlatCon-19 (Jeju, Korea, Jan. 2019), PlatCon-18 (Jeju, Korea, Jan. 2018), PlatCon-17 (Busan, Korea, Feb. 2017), PlatCon-16 (Jeju, Korea, Feb. 2016), PlatCon-15 (Jeju, Korea, Jan. 2015), and PlatCon-14 (Jeju, Korea, Feb. 2014).
