2022 8th International Conference on Information Management and Industrial Engineering (ICII 2022) is scheduled to be in Cape town, South Africa during May 25-27, 2022, mainly sponsored by University of Cape Town, South Africa. In consideration of the health and safety of everyone, pervasive travel restrictions as well as most author’s appeals, we had to make a tough decision and convert ICMIMT 2022 into fully virtual conference.

We would like to express our gratitude to the distinguished speakers: Prof. Makoto Iwasaki (IEEE Fellow, Nagoya Institute of Technology, Japan), Prof. Dr. Chris Yuan (Case Western Reserve University, USA), Prof. Tien-Chien Jen (University of Johannesburg, South Africa), and other distinguished scholars for sharing their deep insights on future challenges and trends in the conferences. Special thanks to our committee members, all the reviewers, session chairs, presenters and listener attendees, researchers and students who participate in the virtual conference.
