The MIPRO 2020 International Hybrid Convention follows many traditions. One of them is the awarding best papers and giving recognition to individuals for their work in the MIPRO society.

MIPRO respected that tradition this year as well, in a modified hybrid form, but retaining all the most important elements. At the opening ceremony, on Wednesday, September 30, 2020, in the Congress Hall of the Grand Hotel Adriatic and for the first time in a live stream via the YouTube platform, the President of the Program Committee, Academician Karolj Skala, announced the three best papers, one student paper, awarded one Friend of MIPRO award and two awards to prominent individuals for significant contribution to the association.

International hybrid convention on information, communication and electronic technology MIPRO 2020 has ended successfully.

MIPRO keeps up with the time! This year, in addition to the physical convention, in addition to all epidemiological measures, we are also holding a virtual part of the convention. In cooperation with the ZOOM platform, our paper authors from all over the world will hold their presentations online.

The Formal Opening of the MIPRO 2020 Convention is currently underway, which you can watch live on our youtube channel. Be part of our hybrid convention, part of the ICT future and join us online.

Taking into account the threat from the COVID-19 pandemic MIPRO 2020 will be organized as a Hybrid Convention. This means that the implementation of all program elements is carried out physically and virtually (online), depending on the pandemic situation and the possibilities and requirements of the participants. MIPRO will ensure secure physical conditions and availability to virtual presence, through advanced communications, collaboration and interaction on hybrid conference platform that will ensure:

• obtaining sufficient information for participants regarding all relevant details of the event (access, programs and changes in static and dynamic form),
• the secure and quality transmission with interactive possibilities such as Q&A and voting,
• creating community in the form of augmented reality using modern ICT technological possibilities.

The final decision about program details of the MIPRO 2020 hybrid convention will be given depending on the pandemic situation, the standpoints of the conference chairs and the possibilities of the authors and other conference participants. A detailed program will be available here in the second half of September. It will include information about time slots and in what way will each event and presentation be held. 

If you would like to know more about computer games in education, we invite you to visit the workshop "Computer Games in Education" at this year's MIPRO.

Computer games industry has become one of the most prominent entertainment industries, more valuable than movie and music industry. Although the main focus of computer games industry is on entertainment, there are many other areas where computer games can be used. One of these areas is education. Gamification and computer games as a part of the learning process can positively affect the speed of learning and the motivation of students. The aim of this workshop is to discuss importance and give an overview of possibilities of using computer games in the context of education.

Biljana Cerin, an experienced director, consultant and project manager with a demonstrated history of working in the management consulting industry, will give an invited talk on “Cybersecurity Risk is a Board-Level Issue” within the CTI conference at this year’s MIPRO convention.

Her presentation will give an overview of the contents that should be presented to the Board, ways to gather and structure the information on cyber security risks exposure, and methods of presenting it in relatively short time given at the Board meetings, in a way that is understandable to the Board members in order for them to make informed decisions in alignment with their responsibilities as a Board. It will also examine the prerequisites for having such a successful cyber risk management system that can deliver the requested outcome at any moment in time - a clear picture of the cybersecurity risks exposure and expected trends for all the relevant stakeholders.

Domenico Caputo, an associate professor at the University of Rome “La Sapienza”, will take part at MIPRO 2020 by holding an invited lecture „Thin Film Technology Meets Lab-on-chip System“ within the special session Optoelectronics and Photonics /OPHO.

As Prof. Caputo’s present research interest is focused on the development of thin film photodetector and Lab-on-Chip device for DNA and mycotoxin detection, he will present the work that has been done with a group of researchers at the Department of Information Engineering, Electronics and Telecommunications of the University of Rome “La Sapienza” in developing a multifunctional optoelectronic platform which includes several thin film devices on a single glass substrate. In particular, the platform integrates amorphous silicon photo-sensors for on-chip detection and temperature control and optical filters for selection of specified wavelength. By coupling this platform with a microfluidic network application in the field of mycotoxin detection and DNA amplification will be presented.  
 

The global online conference ICT-20 @ COVID-19 has ended successfully with about three hundred registered participants from 20 countries on 3 continents. 24 lecturers, from India, Italy and Croatia, had the opportunity to give their contribution and testimony on initiatives and perspectives in the fight and recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic.
