Goal of the workshop

Computer technologies are producing profound changes in society. As COMPSAC 2026 focuses on technical aspects related to the” Agentic AI: Innovative Software, Computing Paradigms, and Applications for Migrating from Reactive Models to Proactive Systems”. The SCA 2026 workshop fosters cooperation among software practitioners and researchers to exchange the latest industrial experience and research ideas on related issues in Smart Computing and Applications.

Workshop theme

The area of processes and services engineering is a very attractive field for smart computing and applications research. Smart computing and applications are those applications that incorporate data-driven, actionable insights into the user experience. Insights are delivered in context as application features that enable users to complete a desired task or action efficiently.

Smart computing and applications have become a popular paradigm for both consumer-facing and employee-facing.

SCA 2026 will address the technical challenges facing technologists developing and deploying these smart systems and applications.

Scope of the workshop

Researchers and practitioners all over the world, from both academia and industry, working in the areas of smart computing and applications, are invited to discuss state-of-the-art solutions, novel issues, recent developments, applications, methodologies, techniques, experience reports, and tools for the development and use of smart computing and applications. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following:

  • Design and development of Smart computing and applications.
  • Software Engineering of Smart computing and applications.
  • Tool Set Design for Smart computing and applications.
  • Smart computing and application development experience.
  • Trust, security, and privacy in Smart computing and application systems.
  • Verification, validation, and testing of Smart computing and applications
  • Other research issues about Smart computing and applications
