The International Conference on Advancements in Computing (ICAC) is organized by the Faculty of Computing of the Sri Lanka Institute of Information Technology (SLIIT) as an open forum for academics along with industry professionals to present the latest findings and research output and practical deployments in computing.

The primary objective of ICAC is to promote innovative research that addresses real-world challenges and contributes to the social well-being of communities. The conference provides a dynamic platform for researchers from around the world to present groundbreaking findings, exchange ideas, and establish meaningful collaborations.

    Group Formation and Communication of Multitasking Multi-Robots for Smart City Cleaning Process
    (IEEE, 2022-12-09) Dahanaka, D.M.S.J; Wijesooriya, A.I.E; Wickramasinghage, D.S.S; Bhaggya, G.V.C; Harshanath, S.M.B; Rajapaksha, U. U. S
    In this research paper, we focus on how multitasking robots team up to clean a city. In particular, we consider how they build their team, how they position themselves in their positions, how they work with teams, how they face obstacles along the way, and how to move groups out of control in an emergency. We use a leader-follower strategy here, and we are also tasked with selecting a leader for each group. The leader finds the shortest route to avoid the obstacle by considering the obstacle details such as obstacle location, obstacle width, and destination. The leader decides the best way for the team to go. If the leader wants to change the group, it gives the message to the relevant member. In the event of meeting an obstacle, it changes its shape and moves. A Robot Operating System (ROS) framework was created to perform real-time experiments with ROS-capable mobile robotic TURTLEBOTs to evaluate this control strategy. Simulations performed on a mobile robot team demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

    Monitoring System for Underage Smart Phone Users
    (IEEE, 2022-12-09) Jayawardena, M.A.P; Mahadi Hassan, M.H.F.M; Aflal, M.I.A; Weerathunga, W.A.A.S; Harshanath, S. M. B.; Rajapaksha, U. U. S
    In today’s world, it is very common among children to use a smartphone or a handheld digital device such as a tablet to entertain themselves and as a medium of socializing with people easily. The COVID-19 pandemic forced many people to stay in their homes and rely on these digital devices to do their day-to-day work and communication. The latter caused the increase in reliance on digital devices to acquire information about the outside world and as a source of entertainment. This new tendency increased the likelihood of children being exposed to pornography, cyberbullying, cyberstalking, excessive gaming, sexting, and behavioral traits related to narcissism. These habits caused many children to develop psychological and physiological illnesses, which affected them in the short term and, for some, which affected them and their families in the long run, such as suicide. Our research proposes to constantly monitor behavioral patterns such as this, notify the relevant individuals, and prevent the children from being prone to such ill fates. According to the findings, using machine learning and natural language processing, sexting, phonographic words, and cyberbullying can all be recognized with pinpoint accuracy. Also, by using two machine learning models, depression and anxiety are detected with an accuracy of 0.84 and 0.86. To prevent and analyze computer vision syndrome caused by improper face-screen distance. An image processing-based algorithm is used to measure the distance from face to screen, and results are narrowed down to an accuracy of 1 inch.
