Following the successful hosting of the 1st International Conference of IEEE Nigeria Computer Chapter (IEEEnigeriaComputConf’16) by the Department of Computer Science, University of Ilorin, Nigeria in November, 2016, IEEE Nigeria Computer Chapter (http://www.sites.ieee.org/nigeria-cs) is pleased to present its 2019 2nd International Conference, tagged IEEEnigComputConf’19. This conference is being organized in collaboration with the Department of Computer Engineering, Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, Kaduna State, Nigeria.
Present day civilization is invariably inter-twined with technology and one of the essential engines of these technologies is computer engineering and sciences. Computing drives virtually all areas of human endeavour including transportation (e.g. flying cars, express trains), power, health, (tele)communication, banking, housing, agriculture, tourism etc. In this conference, the evolution and development of emergent and alternative technologies are examined from the perspectives of computer engineering, computer science, information technology and allied areas.
The theme of the conference is "The Role of Computing in the Evolution and Development of Emergent and Alternative Technologies".
