Nanotechnologies empower the scientific and engineering communities with groundbreaking tools, enabling them not just to interface with existing systems at their most fundamental levels—the sub-atomic and molecular scales—but also to forge new paradigms harnessing physical phenomena inherent in micro- and nano-scales. From pioneering ultra-high-performance computing systems built on extensive chip networks and quantum computing and communication architectures, to revolutionary healthcare solutions and human-enhancement technologies rooted in synthetic biology, the spectrum of applications is vast. Achieving these advancements necessitates interdisciplinary collaboration, with teams bridging the realms of material science, physics, biology, chemistry, medicine, electrical and computer engineering, and computer science.

The 11th ACM International Conference on Nanoscale Computing and Communication (ACM NanoCom 2024) continues the legacy of its ten previous editions by uniting experts ready to break barriers and bridge gaps across disciplines, both in academia and industry. ACM NanoCom 2024 aims to showcase novel research results and breakthrough ideas, while also identifying directions for short- and medium-term exploitation. Contributions encompassing both theoretical and experimental research are encouraged. The conference will feature keynote presentations at the forefront of this interdisciplinary field, alongside contributed and invited papers, work-in-progress papers, and demo presentations.

ACM NanoCom 2024 is endorsed by the Technical Committee on Molecular, Biological, and Multi-Scale Communications of the IEEE Communications Society.
