1st International Conference on Sustainable Computing and Management (ICSCM), December 12–13, 2025

The 1st International Conference on Sustainable Computing and Management (ICSCM 2025) represents a landmark initiative in the global discourse on sustainability, innovation, and interdisciplinary strategy. Organized under the auspices of AB AQUA and held in a fully digital format on December 12–13, 2025, ICSCM 2025 stands as a pioneering platform aimed at advancing research dialogues across the converging fields of computing, environmental governance, digital management, and systemic sustainability.

What makes ICSCM 2025 particularly notable is that it marks the inaugural conference of the International Journal of Sustainable Studies, Technologies, and Assessments (IJSSTA), a peer-reviewed, open-access journal devoted to bridging the gap between theoretical innovation and applied sustainability strategies. As the conference’s official publication outlet, IJSSTA offers a robust academic home for the dissemination of accepted papers, reinforcing the long-term vision of nurturing interdisciplinary research ecosystems. Significantly, all accepted and registered papers will be published in IJSSTA with no Article Processing Charges (APCs), reflecting a firm commitment to equitable access and knowledge dissemination.

The conference convenes a distinguished group of international scholars, including Dr. Hady Habib Fayek (Egyptian Chinese University, Cairo), Dr. Basant Kumar (MNNIT Allahabad, India), and Dr. Arvind Kumar (University of Colorado, USA), each contributing to cutting-edge conversations that span smart energy systems, computational sustainability, and digital transition frameworks. Their participation underscores ICSCM 2025’s global scope and intellectual depth.

Furthermore, a selection of high-quality extended papers will be considered for publication in prominent indexed journals, including the International Journal of Electric Power and Energy Systems and MDPI Processes, after further rounds of peer review. This ensures that the conference not only stimulates immediate scholarly exchange but also encourages long-term research impact through high-visibility publication pathways.

As a digital conference, ICSCM 2025 also embraces the evolving paradigms of scholarly interaction, reducing its environmental footprint while enhancing accessibility and global participation. The event stands as a forward-looking milestone that catalyzes transdisciplinary collaborations, fosters strategic innovation, and contributes meaningfully to the sustainability research agenda.
