Nalin Ranasinghe Senior Lecturer, University of Colombo School of Computing (UCSC). Dr. D. N. Ranasinghe obtained his PhD from University of Wales in Network Performance Modeling. Since then he has expanded his research into distributed systems, GPU computing and natural heuristics for combinatorial optimization. Another of his research interests is looking at models of computing from a holistic viewpoint. He has also served as the deputy director of UCSC. Talk: “The Algorithm Is the Middleware” Abstract: The emergence of very large scale fault tolerant systems is now pervasive and is used as the base of flexible computing power for the user. The talk will discuss the evolution of this scenario and its underlying theoretical basis which provides for rich research experience and emerging applications. Dr. Sankalpa Gamwarige Vice President & General Manager, Zone24x7 Director, SLASSCOM Dr. Sankalpa Gamwarige obtained his PhD from University of Moratuwa in Wireless Sensor Networks. Since then he has contributed immensely to the fields of Electronic Designs and Information Technology (IT), where he works passionately and tirelessly for the betterment of the IT and Knowledge Electronic sector in Sri Lanka through product development, research and publications, advice to policy making for the sector growth, and capacity development. He has also worked at companies such as Motorola Solutions and Millennium IT. Talk: “Importance of Customer Centric R&D to Reach the $5b Target” Abstract: Sri Lanka ICT export industry has gradually evolved over a two decades. As per the records the total export value of this sector is about $800m by end of 2014 with an expectation to reach to $1b by end of this year. Sri Lanka has set very ambitious targets of $5b from ICT exports by 2022. In order to reach to this target local ICT industry has to focus on value than on cost. This will be done by existing companies focusing on Customer centric Product/Solution Engineering and many new startup companies with lean customer centric revolutionary products and solutions. In this back ground whether an establish product/solution company or a startup have to add the Customer Centric R&D to their engineering culture. This has already been practiced at many SLASSCOM member companies. In this presentation speaker will share some of these successful R&D projects and highlight the essence of these R&D teams. -1- AgendaKeynote Speakers [1.5” Binder Spine Insert Title 08:30 – 09:00 Registration Welcome address 09:00 – 09:05 Dr. E.Y.A.

We are proud to be hosting the 2018 Summit meeting. This gathering of Deans of Engineering and representatives is an auspicious occasion to explore further improvements and potential collaborations in engineering education. The AEDS was first held at National University of Singapore, Singapore in 2010 and has since been held at the Chinese University of Hong Kong, P. R. China (2012), Yonsei University, Korea (2013), Peking University, P. R. China (2014), National University of Singapore, Singapore (2015), Zhejiang University, P. R. China (2016) and University of New South Wales, Australia (2017). As the perceived value of universities has undergone shifts according to changing social demands and the global environment, these Yuji Wada external changes have spurred the production of a variety of new engineering education programs in addition to traditional discipline- based programs. As ever, engineering education is at the forefront of educational innovation with advances in artificial intelligence and educational technology. At this year’s Summit, we look forward to presentations related to the theme Diversification of Engineering Education Programs – Today and the Future.

    25th International Conference on Neural Information Processing (ICONIP 2018) Final Program December 13 – 16, 2018, Siem Reap, Cambodia December 13-16, 2018 Siem Reap, Cambodia Welcome Messages It is our pleasure to welcome you to the 25th International Conference on Neural Information Processing (ICONIP 2018), to be held in Siem Reap, Cambodia, December 13-16, 2018. The ICONIP conference series started in 1994 in Seoul, which has now become a well-established and high-quality conference on neural networks around the world. Siem Reap is a gateway to Angkor Wat, which is one of the most important archaeological sites in Southeast Asia, the largest religious monument in the world. All participants of ICONIP 2018 would have a technically rewarding experience as well as a memorable stay in this great city. In recent years, the neural network has been significantly advanced with the great developments in neuroscience, computer science, cognitive science, and engineering. Many novel neural information processing techniques have been proposed as the solutions to complex, networked and information-rich intelligent systems. To disseminate new findings, ICONIP 2018 provided a high-level international forum for scientists, engineers, and educators to present the state of the art of research and applications in all fields regarding neural networks. With the growing popularity of neural networks in recent years, we have witnessed an increase in the number of submissions and in the quality of submissions. ICONIP 2018 received 575 submissions from 51 countries and regions across six continents. Based on a rigorous peer-review process, where each submission was reviewed by at least three experts, a total of 401 high-quality papers were selected for publication in the prestigious series of Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science.

    I UNIVERSITY OF COLOMBO SCHOOL OF COMPUTING ANNUAL REPORT 2016 I DIRECTOR’S REVIEW It is with great pleasure and a sense of pride that I present the Annual Report 2016 of the University of Colombo School of Computing after being appointed as the Director of UCSC on 1st June 2016. As a centre of excellence in teaching and learning in computing which is the main goal of UCSC, this report presents the accomplishments as well as challenges faced during both undergraduate and postgraduates programmes conducted in the year 2016. 761 students, who got the opportunity to be enrolled in undergraduate programmes through the UGC selection process, continued their education similar to the last few years and 236 students were able to complete and be graduated at the end of the year. This report describes the process of the undergraduate education with collected statistics of students for your information. Since there is a huge demand for computing education, UCSC continues its most important national service of conducting BIT external degree programme for which 1602 students got the opportunity to be registered. During the year, UCSC conducted all its BIT exams as scheduled but there were some delays in releasing final results due to administration issues faced at the latter part of the year. However, the convocation and diploma awarding ceremonies were held according to the schedule. Similar to previous years, the demand for the Masters Degree Programme for 2016 is very high. Out of 540 applicants only 184 students were selected for the programmes, and they started their Masters studies in the first quarter of 2016.
