 Pan African Conference on Science, Computing and Telecommunications

PACT 2013, Lusaka, Zambia  

http://www.ib2com.org/PACT/

June 18  20, 2013

Co-Hosted by La Trobe University Australia and University of Zambia

Technically Sponsored by IEEE Region 8

PACT

The objective of PACT is to support and stimulate active productive
research which could strengthen the technical foundations of engineers
and scientists in the continent, develop strong technical foundations
and skills and lead to new small to medium enterprises within the
African sub-continent. We also seek to encourage the emergence of
highly skill technocrats within the continent.

We invite research papers, workshop proposals, and panel proposals on
the following topics. The list is not exhaustive. Tutorials and
Sessions which will impact on and enhance post graduate research
within the continent will be considered. Training Workshops on
research software tools such as Matlab, Scilab, Genesys, Comsol
Multiphysics and others are welcome.



Zambia!! Wow!!

Zambia is one of the most peaceful, hospitable and lively countries in
the African continent. You will have the chance to visit its tourist
attractions including game reserves, breath taking Victoria Falls, the
river Zambezi and Lake Tanganyika. Track the footsteps of early
European explorers to this picturesque country
(http://www.zambiatourism.com/ ). If you are into outdoor living, then
Zambia is a bliss and affords you opportunities for kayaking, boating,
bungie jumping, white water rafting, abseiling, lion walks, elephant
back trains and driving around the beautiful lush natural settings.

Above all, enjoy the glamour of African hospitality, culture and the
gentle nature of the Zambian people. If you are into football
(soccer), Zambia is the current African champion. Be in Zambia to
network and participate in the renaissance of African economic and
technical growth.
