Rooted in the frontiers of computer science and national strategic imperatives, the Institute of Software, Chinese Academy of Sciences (ISCAS) continuously expands global academic exchanges and joint technological innovation. It has established stable, robust research cooperation networks with numerous countries and regions, forging a high-level, regular mechanism for international talent exchanges. The institute invites distinguished overseas scholars, industrial specialists and innovation leaders to carry out joint research, academic seminars and technical exchanges.

In recent years, ISCAS has pooled global intellectual strengths. It has hosted lectures delivered by academic giants including ACM A.M. Turing Award laureates Amir Pnueli, Tony Hoare and Andrew Yao, alongside a cohort of preeminent scientists specializing in computer science, artificial intelligence and software engineering. These exchanges chart cutting-edge research directions and inspire innovative thinking, greatly elevating the institute’s international academic standing in foundational software and intelligent computing.

Drawing on open cooperation platforms and international academic organizations, ISCAS hosts and co-organizes a series of globally influential conferences, namely the International Conference on Technology of Object-Oriented Languages and Systems, International Conference on Information and Communication Security, the First International Conference on World Wide Web Technology and Application in Asia, International Conference on Asian Logic and Software Engineering, Asian Logic Conference, and Asia-Pacific Conference on Computers and Human Interaction. These events serve as a premier hub for academic exchange, advance knowledge sharing and cross-disciplinary collaboration, and deliver vital support for worldwide research partnerships, young researcher cultivation and breakthroughs in core technologies.

In response to the new trends of economic globalization and digital technology transformation, ISCAS accelerates the development of global innovation partnerships and conducts in-depth collaboration with world-class universities, research institutions and high-tech enterprises to further the high-standard opening-up as well as the in-depth integration of industry, academia, research and application.
