● First initiative in southeast Asia for organizing an international conference on Sustainable Technologies for Industry 5.0
● Only conference in Bangladesh, technically co-sponsored by the central IEEE Computer Society, USA
● All the papers of the previous editions were included in the IEEE Xplore digital library within short period of times
● From the very first edition, all the accepted papers are included in the Scopus and other renowned indexed databases
● With each subsequent edition, involvement of international participants is increasing, e.g., 2019: 20 countries, 2020: 22 countries, 2021: 35 countries, and 2022: 39 countries

From its inception, innovation shows no signs of slowing down. However, to overcome the post-covid economic challenges and to establish competitive, sustainable, and greener industries, a new wave of innovation needs to be introduced, which inspires to transit from Industry 4.0 to Industry 5.0. The latter complements the earlier by highlighting synergic co-existence of human intelligence and machine intelligence as drivers for a transition to a sustainable, human-centric and resilient industry. Attaining green and digital transitions requires new technologies to be introduced focusing on the values of stakeholder unlike Industry 4.0 － on machine intelligence and automation only. Hence, Industry 5.0 attempts to capture the value of new technologies, providing prosperity beyond jobs and growth, while respecting planetary boundaries, and placing the well-being of the industry worker at the centre of the production process.

STI 2023 welcomes researchers, industry professionals, and practitioners to display their scientific achievements and sustainable solutions for industrial developments in the fields of computer science & engineering, electrical & electronic engineering, textile engineering, robotics and cyber-physical systems related to Industry 4.0. It will be hosted at the permanent campus of Green University of Bangladesh, Purbachal American City, Dhaka, Bangladesh during 09-10 December 2023.

We are seeking original high-quality innovative research for submissions. All submissions to STI 2023 will go through a double-blind peer reviewing process.

Accepted and presented papers of Track 1 and Track 2 will be submitted to the IEEE Xplore digital library. Note that, papers of our last four editions are already accepted and archived in IEEE Xplore digital library and they are also archived in Scopus database.
