The 4th International Conference on Intelligent Technologies and Applications (INTAP'21) will be held on October 11–13, 2021 at the University of Agder (UiA), Grimstad, Norway. INTAP'21 will be co-organised by the University of Agder (UiA) and by Oslo Metropolitan University (OsloMet) with the support of the Center for Artificial Intelligence Research (CAIR), UiA, Norway, and the Artificial Intelligence Research Group, Islamia University of Bahawalpur (IUB), Pakistan. INTAP'21 will be technically sponsored by Springer. INTAP'21 will address recent advancements in the field of machine learning and artificial intelligence that has resulted in a number of emerging fields of research such as Robotics, Ambient Intelligence, Pervasive Intelligence, Web Intelligence, Bio-Inspired Intelligence, and many more. Emergence of new fields of intelligent computing has opened novel horizons of research and development. These advancements in the field of intelligent computing are effecting the human life. Moreover, we are interested to investigate the way of the modern intelligent technologies simplifying decision making and information processing.

The aim of this conference is to provide an internationally respected forum for scientific research in the computer-based methods and technologies of collective intelligence and their applications in (but not limited to) such fields as green computing, ambient computing, ubiquitous computing, power computing, global computing, pervasive computing, etc.
