Objectives of the conference:
The International conference on Research in Science and Technology aims at finding new and innovative synergies and promulgation of knowledge in different fields of Technology and Science. The conference was meant to promote the knowledge and development of high- quality research in engineering fields concerned with the modern technological development. The conference was planned with a mission to bring together leading academicians, Scientists, Researchers, Scholars and Students to exchange and share their knowledge, experiences and research results on the aspects of Innovations in Science, Engineering and Technology. This forum provided an opportunity to network and discuss the practical challenges encountered and the solutions adopted in their respective domains worldwide. International Conference composed of unique invited master talks and paper presentations in the tracks of Civil and Structural Engineering, Electronics and Communication Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Computer Engineering & IT, Mechanical and Production Engineering, Mathematics and Humanities Science.
Rationale:
The International Conference on “Research and Innovations in Science, Engineering and Technology” (ICRISET 2017) with theme “Responding to Challenges of Globalization through Science, Engineering and Technology Innovations” ICRISET- 2017 was a three-day event which brought together science and engineering professionals and researchers in the country and in other parts of the world to share recent discoveries and results of their scientific innovations. The Conference aims at finding new and innovative synergies and promulgation of knowledge in different fields of Science, Engineering and Technology.
The above purpose was found to be served on execution where more than 500 papers were submitted from nation and in additions global nations like Bangladesh, Russia, Korea, Syria and USA. Total 350 analysts from eminent Academic foundations, industrial sectors, research centres have indiscriminately reviewed the papers to be presented in conference.
More than 500 delegates had registered in the conference. In the light of scientific - theoretical research and the search for practical solutions, it is expected that the exchange of views and discussion come up with new ideas, solution for many current questions and encourage new questions, all in favor of improving the theory and practice of technological development.
International Academic Partners: Ural Federal University-Russia, University of Prince Edward Island-Canada, Huazhong University of Science and Technology-China, Laurentain University-Canada, Wismar University-Germany, CPIT-New Zealand and Jiangsu University- China were the academic partners and other knowledge partners supported the conference.
IC RISET -2017
The manuscript submission carried out through easy chair in which the manuscripts were received from the day the promotion of the International Conference began, i.e. from November, 2016. The last date for paper submission needed to be extended two times looking at the overwhelming response of the participants in the form of paper submission.
505 manuscripts has been received till the last date of paper submission, the plagiarism check and double blind review process had been carried out. 320 research papers were accepted for Presentation and Publication. Presented papers will be published in ISTE journal named Indian Journal of Technical Education (peer review journal). Some of the selected papers will be published in Easy chair Kalpa Series with Scopus indexing.
