I was there to present my paper on customer oriented design support system (an on-going project funded by Ministry of Science, Technology and Innovations), together with two other friends who are presenting their papers as well. I was proud to know that out of 650 papers that was submitted, only 280 papers was accepted. I was even happier to note that our papers (the only 3 from Faculty of Cognitive Sciences and Human Development) was accepted with high acceptance score from the reviewers.<\/p>\n<p>As for the symposium, it was a very fruitful experience and we managed to actually meet with some top researchers and IT experts from all around the world. Personally, i&#8217;m happy to build up my networking by getting to know some new friends, some with vast experience that actually do not mind sharing their views and knowledge. I must say that the organiser (hosted by UKM) has done a splendid job organising the symposium.  Apart from the symposium, all participants were given a free 1-year membership of Malaysian Information Technology Society (MITS), the first professional IT society in Malaysia launched at the symposium.<\/p>\n<p>Oh well, that&#8217;s the mini report of the event. Will provide further updates once i&#8217;m back in Kuching. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>P\/s: updating from Cititel, KL.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For the last 5 days, I was at Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre, taking part in the 3rd International Symposium on<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[111,110,2130],"class_list":["post-279","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-personal","tag-conference","tag-itsim2008","tag-research"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/279","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=279"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/279\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=279"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=279"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/keemanxp.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=279"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
