Leuven is the capital of<br>the province of Flemish Brabant in Belgium. It is located about 25<br>kilometres (16 miles) east of Brussels. It is the 10th largest<br>municipality in Belgium and the fourth in Flanders. Leuven is home to<br>the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, the largest and oldest university<br>of the Low Countries and the oldest Catholic university still in<br>existence. The related university hospital of UZ Leuven, is one of the<br>largest hospitals of Europe. The city is also known for being the<br>headquarters of Anheuser-Busch InBev, the world's largest brewer and<br>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<br>worldwide and Leuven's pride and joy. It took three architects and<br>thirty years to build it. Leuven's 'Hall of Fame' features 236<br>statues, which were only added to the façade after 1850. There are<br>220 men and 16 women in total. On the bottom floor are famous Leuven<br>scientists, artists and historical figures, dressed in Burgundian<br>garb. The first floor is reserved for the patron saints of the various<br>parishes of Leuven. Above them the façade is adorned by the counts<br>and dukes of Brabant while the towers primarily feature biblical<br>figures.<br><br>EDI40 will be held in conjunction with the 13th International<br>Conference on Ambient Systems, Networks and Technologies (ANT 2023).<br><br>Conference Tracks<br> - Benefits of Industry 4.0/6.0<br> - Big Data and Analytics<br> - Cloud Computing<br> - Cognitive Computing<br> - Computational Intelligence<br> - Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS)<br> - Fog Computing and Edge Computing<br> - Internet of Everything (IoE)<br> - Standards for IoT Application Integration<br> - The New Business Models in Industry 4.0/6.0<br> - General Track: Digitalization Startegies<br><br>General Chair<br> Danny Hughes, CTO VeraSense NV, Belgium<br><br>Program Chairs<br> Jamal Bentahar, Concordia University, Canada<br> Haroon Malik, Marshall University, USA<br><br>Workshops Chair<br> Stephane Galland, UTBM, France Program<br><br>International Journals Chair<br> Michael Sheng, Macquarie University, Australia<br><br>Publicity Chairs<br> Ali Benzerbadj, University of Oran 1 Ahmed Ben Bella, Algeria<br> Olivier Debauche, University of Mons, Belgium<br> Siddardha Kaja, Air Canada, Canada<br> Sohail Jabbar, The University of Faisalabad, Pakistan<br><br>Technical Program Committee<br> http://cs-conferences.acadiau.ca/edi40-23/#programCommittees<br><br>Advisory Committee<br> Reda Alhajj, University of Calgary, Canada<br> Ladislav Hluchy, Institute of Informatics, Slovak Academy of<br>Sciences, Slovakia<br> Vincenzo Loia, University of Salerno, Italy<br> Peter Sloot, Universiteit van Amsterdam, Netherlands<br> Peter Thomas, Manifesto Research, Australia<br> Mohamed Younis, University of Maryland Baltimore County, USA<br><br>International Liaison Chairs<br> Soumaya Cherkaoui, Sherbrooke University, Canada<br> Nik Bessis, Edge Hill University, UK<br> David Taniar, Monash University, Australia<br><br>Steering Committee Chair and Founder<br> Elhadi Shakshuki, Acadia University, Canada<br><br></div><div id="gtx-trans"><div class="gtx-trans-icon"></div></div></div><br></div></div></body></html>
