Greetings from General Co-Chairs

On behalf of Organizing Committee, it is our great pleasure and honor to welcome you to International Conference on Emerging Technologies for Communications (ICETC) 2024. This conference brings together leading researchers from industries and academics to share their latest findings, innovations and ideas in the field of information and communication technologies.

As the flagship conference of the IEICE Communications Society, ICETC has been held annually since 2020. Following two online conferences in 2020 and 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, ICETC 2022 in Tokyo was held in a hybrid format, both online and on-site, and ICETC 2023 in Sapporo was held on-site. ICETC 2024, the 5th international conference, will be held in Kokura, Kitakyushu, Japan, a beautiful city with a unique blend of tradition and modernity.

This flagship conference will feature comprehensive technical sessions covering all technical areas of the technical committees of IEICE Communications Society, including fascinating keynotes and invited talks from prominent researchers and from industry and government leaders. The purpose of this conference is to provoke fruitful discussions among researchers in various technical fields. We welcome not only the solid results of completed research, but also the preliminary results of early research stages. The participation of young researchers and students is greatly encouraged.

We extend our sincere gratitude to the authors for their contributions, the reviewers for their meticulous evaluations, and the organizing committee for their hard work and dedication. We also thank our sponsors and partners for their generous support, which has been instrumental in making this conference a success.

We hope all participants to enjoy the excellent technical program of ICETC 2024, held at the Kitakyushu International Conference Center in Kokura, a beautiful northern city in Kyushu with wonderful and historical scenery and palatable cuisine. We look forward to seeing you soon in Kitakyushu!
