The International Toki Conference (ITC) has been successively held reaching the 20th event this year. On this occasion, the 20th ITC will focus on the prospects for the next twenty years of plasma and fusion science, by reflecting on the progress achieved within the past years. The frontiers of simulation science in plasma and fusion research will be the main topic. At the same time, the academic systemization of plasma and fusion science should manifest itself in the 20th ITC, through the synergism of the diversity of research area, and progress of the leading edge.
List of topics
1. Prospects for the Next Twenty Years in Plasma and Fusion Science
2. The Leading Edge of Simulation Science
Multi-Scale Simulation, Large Scale Simulation, Integrated Simulation Codes, High Performance Computing, Simulation Technique
3. Imaging Science
