About NITJSR

National Institute of Technology, Jamshedpur, earlier known as Regional Institute of Technology was established on 15th August 1960 as a joint venture of Government of India and the Government of Bihar in the chain of REC's (Regional Engineering College) in India. This was the only REC in the country which was named as RIT (Regional Institute of Technology). The foundation stone of RIT (REC) Jamshedpur was laid by Dr. Srikrishna Sinha, the then chief minister of Bihar, with the aim of nurturing talent and setting high standards of education and excellence. On 27th December 2002, in the line of all other RECs of India, RIT Jamshedpur was converted to National Institute of Technology, Jamshedpur with the status of a Deemed University as per the decision of Govt. of India. The Institute is fully funded and governed by the Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD), Government of India since 1st April, 2003. On 15 August 2007, NIT Jamshedpur was given the status of the Institute of National Importance through an Act of the Parliament known as the NIT Act.

About CIA-2020

The Internet of Things (IOT) is an organization of interconnected computing devices, digital & mechanical machines and objects having the deftness of sharing data over a network without requiring any human interaction. It pertains to a huge count of things which can talk to the cloud using similar connectivity. IOT allows us to robotize and control the jobs that are done regularly. IOT will lead to a new putsch of the internet network which is guided by the neoteric advancement of technologies like cloud computing, mobile devices, sensor network etc. With the volatile advancement of Internet of Things (IOT) and its applications, the challenging problems in computation to serve the self-regulating e-applications are increasing exponentially.

CIA-2020 will provide a stage to research scholars, scientists and practitioners to put forward and discuss the recent innovations, concerns and trends in the region of computational intelligence. The attendees can also enlighten the challenges faced and possible solutions found in the computation of various applications of IOT. Thus, the major objective of this conference is to bring various experts of research society together and reciprocate the noble knowledge, new evolutions and key issues in the fields related to IOT. CIA is looking forward to stow the gap between knowledge and next generation development of computational intelligence of applications of IOT. CIA invites all the partakers to exchange their learnings and knowledge. We are looking forward to host you @CIA-2020 at NIT Jamshedpur.
