Topics from various fields were covered, such as problems related to the use of wireless sensor networks, social media user behavior, QR code encryption, as well as image processing software. Presentations were also held on the topic of communications in maritime security, navigation and tracking of a set path in autonomous underwater vehicles, optimization and approximation in various applications, as well as digital signal processing. Papers were also presented that predominantly dealt with topics related to artificial intelligence and machine learning, as well as several papers that dealt with watermarking, electronic services and energy topics.
A special session was dedicated to presentations of the EuroCC2 project - National Competence Centers for HPC, FoodHub Center of Excellence, two H2020-MSCA projects TRACEWINDU and ODDEA, H2020 projects NI4OS-Europe and DEMETER, Horizon Europe FishEUTrust, Eureka TRADE, Erasmus DigNest and IPA HPC4S3ME.
As part of the XXVII scientific-professional conference, those present had the opportunity to participate in workshops, panels and trainings in the field of artificial intelligence, but also to hear about standardization in information technologies and cyber security. Various views of the recent Ransomware and other Internet attacks that hit many countries, including Montenegro, were presented. The current topic caused a lively exchange of opinions, which resulted in illuminating many aspects of this complex issue.
Traditionally, the conference was successfully completed for the twenty-seventh year in a row, where it fulfilled its goal by pointing out the importance of a multidisciplinary overview of current affairs and networking of a large number of experts and young researchers in the field of information and communication technologies.

18.02.2023 The final Conference day was full of interesting events |
The third day of the Conference started with parallel sections in the hotels "Žabljak" and "Gorske oči". In both sections, the authors presented papers that predominantly dealt with topics related to artificial intelligence and machine learning, and several papers were also presented that dealt with watermarking, electronic services, and energy topics.
After the end of the sections dedicated to scientific and professional papers, in the hall of the "Gorske oči" hotel, professor Đorđe Krivokapić and his colleagues realized a workshop and a lecture that represented an inspiring introduction to the panel held in the afternoon. Within the panel, various views and reviews of recent Ransomware and other Internet attacks that have hit many countries, including Montenegro, were presented. The current topic provoked a lively exchange of opinions, which resulted in illuminating many aspects of this complex issue.
The conference was concluded in a traditional way: with participants socializing with music, dance and song, until late into the night. The band Pljevaljski tamburaši were responsible for the good atmosphere, and the offer of the National Restaurant on the Crno jezero contributed to the satisfaction of the participants. More... |

17.02.2023 The second day of the conference was successfully completed |
On the second day of the XXVII Scientific-Professional Conference "Information Technologies - Present and Future", two sections were held in parallel in the morning hours both in the hotel "Zabljak" and the hotel "Gorske oci". The audience in the hall of the "Zabljak" hotel had the opportunity to hear presentations by authors on topics from various fields.
Visitors of the hall in "Gorske oci" hotel had the opportunity to attend a workshop on digitization in the field of health and agriculture within the Erasmus+ project DigNest, with examples of good practice on the development of innovations on the international market. The workshop was opened by prof. dr. Ramo Sendelj from the University of Donja Gorica, followed by the presentations of prof. dr. Laszlo Bokor, from the Budapest University for Technology and Economics from Budapest and prof. dr. Christoph Reich from Furtwagen University in Germany.
Examples of advanced digital solutions were presented by representatives of ComTrade from Serbia and ARCTUR from Slovenia, while representatives of the Chamber of Commerce and the Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Water Management presented initiatives at the national level that support digitization and the development of innovations.
The plenary part of the program continued with training for the development of competences in the field of internet of things and artificial intelligence within the framework of the ANSO project InnovateYourFuture held by the NCC Montenegro team. The training included an introduction to artificial intelligence and, more specifically, the part of artificial intelligence - machine learning - the framework by which machine learning models are developed, as well as the steps that need to be taken in this process. In further continuation, the focus of the training was on the demonstration of the data preparation process and the creation of the machine learning model itself. In addition to that, the way in which images are represented on the computer during training of models for computer vision was shown. A practical example of using the popular CVAT and Roboflow tools to prepare and annotate a data set consisting of balloon images was also presented. The result was a new data set that one of the participants used to train the Detectron2 model for detecting balloons in images. This part offered training to participants and a concrete example of the entire process of creating a machine learning model.
The training also included the presentation of Edge IoT technologies and the detection of objects on videos. The technologies used for this purpose were presented as well as two videos where the detection of people wearing masks was performed. Briefly presented were also the ways we can transfer trained machine learning models to Edge IoT devices. As part of the training, real-time detection was shown using the Jetson card and camera.
At the very end of the second day of the conference, the representatives of the Institute for Standardization of Montenegro (ISME), Zoran Glomazic, director and Ivana Vlahovic, Department for Standards in the field of electrical engineering, gave a presentation. Those present had the opportunity to familiarize themselves with the fulfillment of obligations arising from the requirements of the Agreement on Technical Recommendations on Trade of the World Trade Organization. ISME was presented, which meets the requirements and strives to become a full member of international and European organizations, and those present had the opportunity to hear about standardization in information technologies and cyber security. The Institute for Standardization of Montenegro has 16 technical committees that participate in the process of adopting MEST standards from various fields.
About 100 participants took part in the activities of the second day of the conference, which during the breaks could also enjoy the sun and snow-bathed Durmitor mountains.
Following the good old custom, the working day was brought to an end in good company and a pleasant atmosphere.
