All previous forums of this series were highly appreciated at their true value by the leading specialists and companies involved. The information technologies make a significant contribution to the automation of the physical experiment. The symposium topics covers the hybrid fields of research at the junction of detector electronics and computer science, and they are significant interest to the scientific community. Thus, NEC'2019 scientific program covered a wide range of issues and included the following sections: Computing for Large Scale Facilities (LHC, FAIR, NICA, SKA, PIC, XFEL, ELI, etc.); Distributed Computing. GRID & Cloud Сomputing; Research Data Infrastructures; on Detector & Nuclear Electronics; Triggering, Data Acquisition, Control Systems;; Machine Learning Algorithms and Big Data Analytics; Computations with Hybrid Systems (CPU, GPU, coprocessors) and the traditional topic ̶ Innovative IT Education.
