On April 10–11, 2026, the SDU University successfully hosted the ICECCO 2026 (International Conference on Electronics, Communications and Computing Optimization). The large-scale scientific event was organized in a hybrid format, allowing participants to attend both offline and online. This approach enabled broad participation from both local and international researchers and contributed to strengthening global academic dialogue.

The conference covered key areas of modern science and technology. Participants presented research papers in the following sections: Computational Intelligence, Signal Processing, Electron Devices and Electronics, Industry Applications, Computers and Information Theory, and Communications.

Each research paper was presented in a 10-minute presentation followed by a 5-minute Q&A session, ensuring dynamic and engaging discussions.

On the first day of the conference (April 10), a total of 33 research papers were presented. Parallel sessions were held across several venues: Blue Hall (SDULIFE) hosted sessions on computational intelligence and signal processing; Workshop 205 focused on electronic devices and industry applications; and Workshop 204 covered computer science, information theory, and communications. The sessions were moderated by Mohammed Alaa Fadhil Al-Hadeethi.

During the conference, participants not only presented their research findings but also exchanged experiences, discussed future collaborations, and explored new scientific ideas. This contributed significantly to the development of international academic cooperation.

ICECCO 2026 served as an important platform for scientists, researchers, faculty members, and students to exchange knowledge, foster innovation, and expand professional networks.
