We are moving quickly towards the new era called “Quantic-Nanotechnological-Self-Sufficient Era”, where the emergence of artificial intelligence will occur. In that sense, a few years ago, the transformation of traditional computer science started, whose minimal unit of information are the “bits”, towards to the “qubit”. That is to say, the minimal unit of information in quantum computers.


Although in the 20th century the bits have revolutionized the new information technologies and interactive communication, the qubits will bring new innovating winds for all humankind and the society of information towards an exponential revolution and transformation of the human-computing-nature interactions. The limits of those interactions and interrelations, orthogonal or not, exist only in the imagination and creativity of human intelligence and artificial intelligence. The current space intends to set up those first fundamental links between the bits, quibits, the human being and the context whether it is natural or artificial.


The current overcoming of the limits of miniaturization does not only constitute a challenge to the factual, formal and natural sciences, but also a great opportunity for the new horizons of quantum computing. We are facing new paradigms in the sector of the new technologies, since we will move from the laws of classical physics valid for the macroscopic world, to the realization of calculations based on the laws of quantum physics, which control the smallest components of the universe, such as the atoms and the particles.


Simulations, for instance, through the quantum computers, will open a host of new disciplines and lines of research, especially in the field of the communications between human beings and computers, biology, medicine, chemistry, astronomy, trade, new materials, among so many others. Natural fields of work for chemists, mathematicians, physicists, nuclear engineers, aeronautical engineers, electronic engineers, industrial engineers, software engineers, among others will emerge. These new fields will require researchers unlike those who, for years or even decades, have been trivially dedicating themselves to the handicapped and/or disabled people, information retrieval, conversational agents, embodied interaction, gamification, computer supported cooperative learning, model-driven engineering, robotics, user experience, universal accessibility, educational ecosystems, recommender systems, and a long etcetera thus destroying the scientific and exact contents of the software engineering or CHI to mention two examples.


These simulations will allow the realization of models of any physical system and predict behavior, which entails a better understanding of the microscopic world that surrounds us. At the moment in which the democratization of the quantum computers takes place, an endless series of revolutionary developments will occur in all the branches of the formal, factual and natural sciences, add technological innovations, awaiting their good use in medicine, education, renewable energies, agronomy, the preservation of the natural parks, and so on.


We are at the beginning of a new era, such as was computer science in the 60s, when nobody knew for certain where the birth and development of the internet could take humanity, and especially since its democratization in the 90s. In short, these are times of major breakthroughs, and with a huge repercussion on both everyday life and the progress of scientific knowledge. Therefore, we are facing a kind of natural and artificial selection of the contents of the bits towards the qubits. Our main areas of topics can be summarized in the following groups of sub-topics, which do not mean that other disciplines, domains, specializations, and so forth, cannot be included in them (see below).


Many conferences are focussed on specific aspects of advanced visual interface, agriculture, artificial intelligence, automatization, computer science, education, podcasting, emergency services, HCI / CHI, ICT, machine learning algorithms, programming, security, simulation, users, children, IDC, IR, disabled people, older adults, opinion mining, etc., and bring together leading experts in a particular field or sometimes on a specific technology. Our conferences, workshops, symposiums, etc., are not a big scale (thousands) and aim to promote dialogue between established professors, research experts, pedagogues, and so on, and students, programmers, designers, managers, and so forth, working on new directions.


Hence topics from the whole range of quantum communication, models of quantum computation, simulations, computing graphics processing, artificial intelligence, information theory, sciences and disciplines for quantum technologies, complex networks nature and society, agriculture automatization, environment and development, new professions in quantum computing, and so on, are welcomed.


Last year’s symposiums, workshops, conferences, and so forth, organized by AInCI and ALAIPO, for instance, included papers, demos, research-in-progress, doctoral consortium, posters, etc., on the topics (see below the alphabetical order). An extensive listing connotes and reflects the requirement and also skill necessary to find intersection zones of the disciplines among the different domains, fields, and specialities; which at the same time potentially boosts and merges the formerly different scientific views.

:: Very important !!! 


The AUTHORS CAN PRESENT MORE THAN ONE RESEARCH WORK WITH ONLY ONE REGISTRATION (2 contributions). For example: Paper #1 and paper #2; paper and short paper; paper and poster ; demo and poster; research-in-progress and demo; etc. More information: 

https://www.alaipo.com/QUITANS-2026/conference_QUITANS_2026_paper.html

All contributions should be of high quality, originality, clarity, and significance and not published elsewhere or submitted for publication during the review period. 

b) The main topics and subtopics, here:

https://www.alaipo.com/QUITANS-2026/conference_QUITANS_2026_topics.html

All submitted research works will be reviewed by a double-blind (at least three reviewers), non-blind, and participative peer review. These three kinds of review will support the selection process of those that will be accepted for their presentation at the international conference. Authors of accepted research works who registered in the conference can have access to the evaluations and possible feedback provided by the reviewers who recommended the acceptance of their research works, so they can accordingly improve the final version of their contributions.



:: Additional Information 


1) Works Submissions: Open. Consequently, as they are received, they will be evaluated. It is a way to speed up the process to make up the final program of the international conference, visa requirements, should plan travel well in advance, and so on. In other words, it is not necessary to wait until the deadline to send them for the evaluation process. 

Authors Notification: Some days after submission/s.

Camera-ready, full papers: August, 20th.

2) Keynote speakers and relaters with human and professional - super 'High Quality'.
 
3) Certificate of participation and conference proceedings.

4) Conference proceedings (Color = digital version and B/W = paper version). Digital version off-line (conference room/s) and analogical / paper version next December 2025 / January 2026 (after conference)

5) Participation for the selection of the best contributions (paper, short paper, demos, research-in-progress, poster, etc.) and best research awards (certificate and voucher to spend at Blue Herons Editions - www.blueherons.net). The selected best research works –papers, short papers, posters and demos– will be exempt from registration payment. Furthermore, they will have the opportunity to expand their contributions free of charge for publication in Blue Herons editions (https://www.blueherons.net) at January / February 2027.
 
6) Free excursions in Italy ... and not folk dacing, expressive musical performances, hypocritical parties, cakes with candles to celebrate the academic corruption, and so on. It is a serious conference and we are working with zero Gardunia Factor.

7) This is an international conference 100% in-person.


This international conference is organized by ALAIPO Latin Association of Human-Computer Interaction (Asociacion Latina de Interaccion Persona Ordenador) https://www.alaipo.net, and AInCI International Association of Interactive Communication (Asociacion Internacional de la Comunicacion Interactiva) https://www.ainci.net


Finally, in case you are not interested for this international conference, we would be grateful if you can pass on this information to another interested person you see fit. Thanks :-)
