Computer theory and engineering is an ever-evolving field that has witnessed significant advancements in recent years. With the explosive growth of technology, there has been a tremendous increase in the number of devices that rely on computers, such as smartphones, tablets, and wearable technology. In response to this growth, researchers in computer theory and engineering have been working tirelessly to develop new algorithms, hardware, and software to keep pace with the demands of these devices. The 16th International Conference on Advanced Computer Theory and Engineering (ICACTE 2023) is scheduled to take place in Hefei, Anhui, China during September 15-17, 2023. Since its inception in 2008, ICACTE has been held in various locations across the globe, including Germany, Singapore, South Korea, and China. Each edition attracts participants from all over the world, providing them with an opportunity to collaborate and network.
