IISE Annual Conference & Expo 2026
Call for Abstracts and Presentation Summaries
Loews Hotel | Arlington, Texas
May 16 – 19, 2026
Track: Data Analytics & Information Systems (DAIS)
Abstract Submission Link available on Conference Website: https://www.iise.org/Annual/
Dear Colleagues,
The Data Analytics & Information Systems (DAIS) Division of the Institute of Industrial & Systems Engineers (IISE) is sponsoring the DAIS Track at the IISE Annual Conference & Expo 2026. The conference is a forum for exchanging knowledge and discoveries in the Industrial and Systems Engineering research and practitioner communities. The IISE Annual Conference & Expo 2026 will continue to integrate research and industry applications under one conference.
As Track Chairs of the DAIS Track, we encourage you to contribute to the Conference and Track by submitting a 250-word abstract or presentation summary. Authors will be able to claim these works as refereed extended abstracts, which will be available on the conference website and can be cited. They will not be copyrighted or indexed in the official conference proceedings, and therefore there is no limitation on reusing this material for other purposes (e.g., toward the publication of journal papers or subsequent conference proceedings). We highly encourage abstracts and presentation summaries that demonstrate international collaboration and the application of emerging technologies and methods. Key areas include, but are not limited to:
|
● Data Science and Artificial Intelligence
● Machine/Statistical Learning & Deep Learning
● Computer Vision and Image Processing
● Natural Language Processing & Large LanguageModels
● Robotics and Automation Systems
● Decision Support & Expert Systems
● Federated & Distributed Learning
● Cloud Computing
● Cybersecurity
● Data-Driven Simulation
● Cyber Physical Systems & Digital Twins
● System Informatics and Control
● Network Science and Complex Systems
|
● Internet of Things (IoT), Industry 4.0, & Sensor Networks
● Smart Healthcare
● Advanced Manufacturing Systems
● Intelligent Transportation Systems & Supply Chains
● Energy, Environment, & Earth Systems Analytics
● Analytics for Sustainable Environmental & Engineered Systems
● Homeland Security and Disaster Preparedness
● Hazard, Risk, and Resilience Analysis
● Human-Computer/Human-Machine Interaction (HCI/HMI) & Human Systems Integration
|
Authors of accepted abstracts and presentation summaries will be invited to share their work in a conference session. Regular sessions will be 80 minutes and have up to four presentations. There will also be options where authors can elect to share their content in a "Poster Session". In addition, there are opportunities to organize and/or participate in Special Sessions (Panels, Workshops, etc.). If you are interested in organizing a special session, please contact the track chairs directly by November 15, 2025.
While not required, we strongly encourage all presenters to submit a paper for publication so discoveries can be permanently documented. This year, two types of papers will be considered: Research Papers and Case Study Papers.
● Research Papers (with a limit of six pages) contain methods and results that are significant and have archival value to the Industrial and Systems Engineering community. They will undergo a double-blind peer review process and accepted papers will be copyrighted and indexed in the Conference Proceedings via ProQuest.
● Case Study Papers (two to six pages) describe the application of a method or technology that addresses an important industry-motivated issue. They will be reviewed to ensure that the content focuses on the value and lessons learned for the Industrial and Systems Engineering community. The case study papers should avoid significant marketing material. Accepted manuscripts will be published with access via the IISE website.
Important deadlines:
• Submission deadline for abstract/presentation summary : November 10, 2025
• Notification of decision on abstract/presentation summary : December 15, 2025
• Paper submission deadline: (Paper submission is optional but encouraged.) : January 18, 2026
• Notification on full paper decision : February 25, 2026
