STUST President Deng-maw Lu said that the school would continue to actively invest in research and development of cutting-edge technologies, and encourage teachers and students to participate in various domestic and foreign related competitions, with fruitful and impressive results. Although the international pandemic is still severe, STUST is even more actively co-organizing this annual event through cross-border information technology integration. In addition to displaying the achievements of STUST in cutting-edge technology research, it has also successfully acted as a cross-field international academic exchange platform. It is hoped that domestic and foreign scholars in different fields will be here, and there will always be sufficient knowledge and information exchange in the conference, which can stimulate the novel application of cutting-edge technology.
