The ICASC 2026 conference continues the series of the former 16 annual events of the Romanian LCG Federation (RO-LCG) on “Grid, Cloud and High-Performance Computing in Science“ (2007-2022). Its title has been changed and the topics have been expanded to offer a more comprehensive coverage of the current evolution in scientific computing.

Prospective authors are invited to submit for peer review original, previously unpublished manuscripts on new results/developments, as well as technical reports, to be orally presented in the conference sections.

The main area of interest are:
T1 — Advanced Computing Infrastructures
Grid, Cloud, HPC, Quantum, Multi-core, Cluster computing

Cloud-native architectures and containerization (Docker, Kubernetes)

Middleware, resource management, runtime environments

Fault tolerance, reliability, and resilience in distributed systems

Energy-efficient computing and green IT for data centers and HPC

T2 — Scientific Software & Workflows
Scientific workflows, automation, and orchestration

Development and optimization of scientific software

Monitoring, management, and data organization tools

National and international contributions to large-scale collaborations

E-infrastructures for collaborative research

T3 — Data Management & Big Data
High-performance data storage, data lakes, and data management

Big Data analytics pipelines for scientific and industrial research

Processing and analysis of large-scale scientific data

Automated measurement systems and data analysis

T4 — Artificial Intelligence
Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning infrastructures

Machine learning applications in scientific research

AI-accelerated simulations and analytics

Intelligent optimization of scientific and engineering systems

T5 — Modeling & Digital Engineering
Numerical methods for physics and engineering

Digital twins and simulation platforms

Computational modeling in physics, chemistry, and biology

T6 — Communication, IoT & Edge Computing
Communication, networking, and broadcast technologies

Wireless, satellite, and space communications

All presentations will be uploaded on the conference web site.

Extended abstracts will be published, if accepted, in the Book of Abstracts, which will be made available at the conference venue.

Accepted up to 4-6 pages manuscripts will be published in the Conference Proceedings and IEEE Xplore digital library.

Accepted papers will be submitted for inclusion into IEEE Xplore subject to meeting IEEE Xplore’s scope and quality requirements.

Longer manuscripts, on specific topics, can be submitted for publication in international or regional journals. For more information please contact the organizers.
