Research and Innovation Forum 2024

This book features research presented and discussed during the Research & Innovation Forum (Rii Forum) 2024. As such, this book offers a unique insight into emerging topics, issues and developments pertinent to the fields of technology, innovation and education and their social impact. 
Papers included in this book apply inter- and multi-disciplinary approaches to query such issues as technology-enhanced teaching and learning, smart cities, information systems, cognitive computing and social networking. What brings these threads of the discussion together is the question of how advances in computer science-which are otherwise largely incomprehensible to researchers from other fields-can be effectively translated and capitalized on so as to make them beneficial for society as a whole.
In this context, Rii Forum and Rii Forum proceedings offer an essential venue where diverse stakeholders, including academics, the think tank sector and decision-makers, can engage in a meaningful dialogue with a view to improving the applicability of advances in computer science.
