Leuven is the capital of the province of Flemish Brabant in Belgium. It is located about 25 kilometres (16 miles) east of Brussels. It is the 10th largest municipality in Belgium and the fourth in Flanders. Leuven is home to the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, the largest and oldest university of the Low Countries and the oldest Catholic university still in existence. The related university hospital of UZ Leuven, is one of the largest hospitals of Europe. The city is also known for being the headquarters of Anheuser-Busch InBev, the world's largest brewer and one of the five largest consumer-goods companies in the world.<br><br>Leuven's Town Hall is one of the best-known Gothic town halls worldwide and Leuven's pride and joy. It took three architects and thirty years to build it. Leuven's 'Hall of Fame' features 236 statues, which were only added to the façade after 1850. There are 220 men and 16 women in total. On the bottom floor are famous Leuven scientists, artists and historical figures, dressed in Burgundian garb. The first floor is reserved for the patron saints of the various parishes of Leuven. Above them the façade is adorned by the counts and dukes of Brabant while the towers primarily feature biblical figures.<br><br>ANT 2023 will be held in conjunction with the 6th International Conference on Emerging Data and Industry (EDI40).<br><br>Conference Tracks<br> - Agent Systems, Intelligent Computing and Applications<br> - Big Data and Analytics<br> - Cloud Computing<br> - Context-awareness and Multimodal Interfaces<br> - Emerging Networking, Tracking and Sensing Technologies<br> - Human Computer Interaction<br> - Internet of Things<br> - Mobile Networks, Protocols and Applications<br> - Modelling and Simulation in Transportation Sciences<br> - Multimedia and Social Computing<br> - Service Oriented Computing for Systems & Applications<br> - Smart, Sustainable Cities and Climate Change Management<br> - Smart Environments and Applications<br> - Systems Security and Privacy<br> - Systems Software Engineering<br> - Vehicular Networks and Applications<br> - General Track<br><br>General Chairs<br> Atta Badii, University of Reading, UK<br> Albert Zomaya, The University of Sydney, Australia<br><br>Program Chairs<br> Hossam Hassanein, Queen's University, Canada<br> Ansar-Ul-Haque Yasar, IMOB – Hasselt University, Belgium<br><br>Workshops' Chair<br> Stephane Galland, UTBM, France<br><br>Vice Chairs<br> Muhammad Adnan, Hasselt University Belgium<br> Manzoor Ahmed, Qingdao University, China<br> Ayoub Bahnasse, Hassan II University, Morocco<br> Nik Bessis, Edge Hill University, UK<br> Samia Bouzefrane, CEDRIC Lab Conservatoire National des Arts et Métiers, France<br> Junsung Choi, Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology, Republic of Korea<br> Stefano Cresci, National Research Council, Italy<br> Robertas Damasevicius, Kaunas University of Technology, Lithuania<br> Giovanni Da San Martino, University of Padua, Italy<br> Roberto Di Pietro, Hamad Bin Khalifa University, Qatar<br> Solomiia Fedushko, Lviv Polytechnic National University, Ukraine<br> Mohammad Ghanim, Ministry of Transport, Qatar<br> Stefano Guarino, IAC-CNR Rome, Italy<br> Faouzi Kammoun, Ecole Supérieure Privée d'Ingénierie et de Technologies, Tunis<br> Bouabdellah Kechar, Oran 1 Ahmed BenBella University, Algeria<br> Manzoor Khan, UAEU, UAE<br> Ridha Khedri, McMaster University, Canada<br> Natalia Kryvinska, University of Vienna, Austria<br> Ka Lok Man, Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University, China<br> Yazan Mualla, UTBM, France<br> Flavio Lombardi, Roma Tre University of Rome, Italy<br> Aneta Poniszewska-Marańda, Lodz University of Technology, Poland<br> Cristina Seceleanu, Mälardalen University, Sweden<br> Khaled Shaaban, Utah Valley University, USA<br> Kamran Siddique, Xiamen University Malaysia, Malaysia<br> Mohamed Tabaa, EMSI, Morocco<br> Igor Tchappi, University of Luxembourg, Luxembourg<br><br>Technical Program Committee<br> http://cs-conferences.acadiau.ca/ant-23/#programCommittees<br><br>Publicity Chairs<br> Rachida AIT Abdelouahid, Hassan II University, Morocco<br> Wim Ectors, Hasselt University, Belgium<br> Siddardha Kaja, Air Canada, Canada<br> Salam Traboulsi, University of Applied Sciences, Germany<br> Farhan Ullah, Northwestern Polytechnical University, China<br><br>International Journals Chairs<br> Haroon Malik, Marshall University, USA<br> Michael Sheng, Macquarie University, Australia<br><br>Advisory Committee<br> Reda Alhajj, University of Calgary, Canada<br> Sajal K.
