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

The IEEE International Conference on Autonomic Computing and 
Self-Organizing Systems (ACSOS) is a premier venue for advancing 
research in autonomic computing, self-adaptation, and  
self-organization. Established in 2020 through the merger of two 
influential IEEE conferences—ICAC (International Conference on Autonomic 
Computing) and SASO (International Conference on Self-Adaptation and 
Self-Organization)—ACSOS builds on more than two decades of excellence 
in these fields. The conference serves as a hub for interdisciplinary 
collaboration, bridging academic and industrial perspectives across 
domains such as artificial intelligence, computational biology, and 
computer systems. ACSOS features a diverse program, including research 
papers, experience reports, posters, demonstrations, and a doctoral 
symposium, fostering innovation and knowledge exchange.


>       *** Registration ***

Join researchers, practitioners, and industry leaders from around the 
world to explore the latest advances in autonomic computing, 
self-adaptive systems, and self-organizing systems.

Author and early-bird registration deadline: July 20, 2026

>       *** Program ***

We have an exciting program lined up spanning our main track, workshops, 
tutorials, posters and demonstrations, artifacts, the doctoral 
symposium, ACSOS in Practice, and an Expert Panel. Across these 
sessions, attendees will have the opportunity to explore cutting-edge 
research, learn from real-world deployments and experiences, engage in 
hands-on learning, and participate in discussions on the challenges and 
future directions of the field. Together, the program offers a rich mix 
of technical depth, practical insights, and opportunities to connect 
with researchers and practitioners from across the ACSOS community:

>       *** Keynotes ***

Furthermore, we have an exciting lineup of keynote speakers who will 
share their perspectives. Their talks will complement the technical 
program by offering inspiring insights from leading researchers and 
practitioners, fostering discussion and broadening our collective view 
of the field: https://2026.acsos.org/info/keynotes


Marco Dorigo (Université Libre de Bruxelles): Bridging Centralized and 
Decentralized Control in Robot Swarms through Self-Organizing Hierarchies


Ivona Brandic (TU Wien): Bridging Classical and Quantum Computing: 
Lessons, Challenges, and Opportunities


Valeria Cardellini (Tor Vergata University of Rome): TBA


And… a Doctoral Symposium Keynote by:

Carlo Ghezzi (Politecnico di Milano): Being a researcher — in turbulent 
times


>       *** Social Program ***

If the outstanding technical program isn't reason enough to join us, 
perhaps the venue and social program will be! Set on the University of 
Bologna's Cesena Campus, ACSOS 2026 offers plenty of opportunities to 
reconnect with colleagues, meet new members of the community, and enjoy 
a memorable conference experience both inside and outside the lecture halls.
