The 6th IEEE International Workshop on Distributed Intelligent Systems
(DistInSys 2026)

Vilamoura, Algarve, Portugal - 23-26 June, 2026

https://sites.google.com/view/distinsys-2026/

in conjunction with the 31st IEEE Symposium on Computers and
Communications (ISCC 2026)

https://ieee-iscc.computer.org/2026/

=============================================================================================

MISSION:
The digital environment is, nowadays, populated by sensing devices that are ubiquitous,
strongly interconnected, and heterogeneous. The vision of a large ecosystem of machines
that can cooperate in solving articulated tasks is becoming realistic day by day.
Teams of agents, sensors, and robots are ever more capable to sense the environment,
process the gathered information, and act in structured and unstructured scenarios,
even in space and harsh environments.

To deal with complexity and a large amount of produced data,
it is necessary to decompose systems into smaller, distributed, efficient, intelligent,
and autonomous units responsible for local decision-making and control,
let them explore knowledge stored locally and communicate among themselves only when needed.
That solutions opens issues when discussing the systems design, data, and knowledge exchange,
analysis of proper and optimal coupling of system parts as well as integration of subsystems,
introducing a completely diverse nature into the overall framework.

Given the depth of interests and applications, we invite all interested researchers,
scientists and engineers to take part in DistInSys 2026
