The IEEE International Conference on Cyber Humanities (IEEE CH) is an annual event co-sponsored by the IEEE Systems, Man, and Cybernetics (SMC) Society. It focuses on theoretical and practical aspects of technologies applied to Social Science and Humanities (SSH) that includes Arts, Heritage, History, Archeology, Linguistics, Libraries, Archives and so forth. SSH Is now considered as a Critical and Complex Human-Cyber-Physical Ecosystem that need protection, valorization and resilience for the future generations. The conference explores novel concepts, technologies, solutions and applications to along the digital continuum including digitization, curation, protection, reuse and disseminate Digital Cultural Assets. The IEEE CH 2025 conference will be held in Florence, Italy, during September 8–10, 2025.

The IEEE CH 2025 conference will accept high-quality regular research papers, Systematization of Knowledge (SoK) papers providing insights in the above areas, and industrial papers promoting contributions on technology development, innovations and implementations. IEEE CH 2025 will also host workshops specializing into the conference’s areas or focusing on high-quality applied research and innovation results that are obtained from cyber-security and resilience projects.
Submitted manuscripts should not exceed 6 pages (plus 2 extra pages, being subject to overlength page charges) and should be of sufficient detail to be evaluated by expert reviewers in the field. The conference (including workshops) proceedings will be published by IEEE and will be included in IEEE Xplore. Detailed information about the paper submission and guidelines to authors will be posted on the IEEE CH conference website https://www.ieee-ch.org.
