The International Symposium on Programming and Systems (ISPS) is a biennial event that aims to bring together leading practitioners, academic scientists, researchers and research scholars in computer science to exchange and share their experiences and research results in various areas of the field. To catch up with the development pace of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) and their use to improve the lives of people, the 13th edition of ISPS will focus on opportunities, challenges, case studies and future trends of e-governance in the era of digital smart cities and next generation computing ecosystem. By “digital city” we are referring to a connected community that combines a communication infrastructure, virtual environments and innovative services to meet the needs of good governance and sustainable national development.
