==History==
The idea of establishing the Informatics Society of Iran was proposed in (1977), followed by the development and proposal of its constitution. After discussions and exchanges of opinions among interested individuals, a general session was held on (September 19, 1978), during which the current name of the society was approved instead of "Iran Computer Society." A seven-member group was chosen with full authority to pursue the society's activities until the registration and formation of the first general assembly. The members of this group were:

# Mohammad Javad Ashjaei, [[Isfahan University of Technology]]
# The late Morteza Anvari, Higher School of Planning and Computer Application
# Lotfali Bakhshi, [[Islamic Azad University]]
# Ebrahim Bahjat, Hadabann Consulting Company
# Dr [[Behrouz Parhami]], [[Tehran Polytechnic|Tehran Polytechnic University]]
# Hossein Jafari Fesharaki
# Ahmad Miraatnia, [[Tehran Polytechnic|Tehran Polytechnic University]]
