The Mediterranean Conference on Advances in Computer Science and Technology (MedCAST 2025) is an international forum that intends to project recent breakthroughs, trends, and innovations within the area of Computer Science and Technology, especially those that may influence the Mediterranean area.

MedCAST 2025 is an interactive platform where academic researchers, experts from industries, and policy makers come together to share knowledge, promote collaborations, and hold debates on state-of-the-art computer science applications across a wide scope of industries. The scientific program of MedCAST 2025 includes keynote talks by world-renowned experts, technical paper sessions, poster presentations, and special focus sessions on emerging topics. These sessions are meant to facilitate an interdisciplinary dialogue and thinking for innovation in areas like artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, big data, IoT, and many others.

All submitted papers will undergo a rigorous peer-review process, evaluated by at least two members of the International Program Committee. Additional reviewers will be assigned if needed. Criteria for acceptance will consider originality, technical merit, relevance, and clarity of the research. MedCAST 2025 is committed to publishing high-level advances related to computer science and technology, and promoting further cooperation and knowledge transfer among researchers from the Mediterranean and worldwide.
