On April 22-24, 2026, the third International Conference on Information Technologies and Their Applications (ITTA 2026) was held in Baku, Azerbaijan, co-organized by the V.M. Glushkov Institute of Cybernetics of the NAS of Ukraine (Arkadiy Chikriy and Petro Stetsyuk are members of the program committee, Viktor Stovba is a member of the organizing committee).
The conference was co-organized by scientific centers of Azerbaijan, Turkey, Greece, Poland, Kazakhstan. The third conference, like the second, was supported by the Springer publishing house.
240 reports from 40 countries were presented at the conference. The conference program included 140 reports from 24 countries. The conference was held in a mixed format.
The topics of the presentations and discussions encompassed smart cities, intelligent buildings, cybersecurity, and problem-solving using artificial intelligence. The central idea of the conference was the integration of information technologies into architecture, construction, and other relevant fields. The conference participants emphasized that, in recent years, the importance of ensuring the structural strength and seismic resilience of buildings has increased significantly, with the application of sensor technologies and data analysis playing a key role in this process.
