by Announce 10 Jul '26

10 Jul '26

*** Last Combo Call for Workshop Papers *** 37th IEEE International Symposium on Software Reliability Engineering (ISSRE 2026) October 20-23, 2026, 5* St. Raphael Resort and Marina Limassol, Cyprus https://cyprusconferences.org/issre2026/ Workshops at ISSRE provide additional opportunities for collaborating and exchanging information, for both practitioners from industry and academic researchers. The workshops aim at discussing recent developments and open challenges in engineering high-assurance software and systems, and they are open to exchange of ideas at an early stage before maturation. All accepted workshop papers will be published by IEEE in the ISSRE 2026 accompanying proceedings volume. The following workshops are confirmed and will be organized co-located with ISSRE 2026. 3rd International Workshop on Advanced Intelligent Software Quality (AISQ 2026) https://sites.google.com/view/aisq-2026/home In the era of Industry 4.0, advanced intelligent software systems, such as cyber-physical systems (CPS), machine learning-based systems, manufacturing systems, digital twin systems, quantum software applications, multi-agent systems, real-time systems, and LLM-based systems, are playing an increasingly important role in both the industrial world and our daily lives. Failures or requirement violations in these systems may lead to disruptive consequences or even catastrophic outcomes. Nowadays, extensive research, spanning both formal methods and engineering practices, has been conducted to improve the quality of advanced intelligent software from various aspects, such as usability, correctness, reliability, scalability, and robustness. New research topics and directions, such as prompt engineering and harness engineering, are constantly emerging. Our AISQ aims to bridge the gap between the increasing complexity of modern systems and the scalability of quality assurance approaches and fundamental theories. Specifically, AISQ seeks to collect promising and high-quality research achievements and provide an international venue to discuss advanced discoveries and emerging trends related to the quality of Advanced Intelligent Software in both academia and industry. 3rd International Workshop on Human Factors for Software Dependability (HFSD 2026) https://hfsdworkshop.github.io/ Software is created by humans and widely used by humans, with the ultimate goal of benefiting society. HFSD is a specialized workshop that brings together researchers from multiple disciplines to address the human factors that shape the reliability, safety, security, and availability of software systems. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, human error, human–AI collaborative programming, social factors in security risks, and human-in-the-loop approaches for trustworthy autonomous systems. 1st International Workshop on Quality Assurance of Conversational Agentic Systems (QA4AGENTS) https://qa4agents.github.io/ The QA4Agents workshop focuses on quality assurance techniques, methodologies, and tools for conversational agentic systems, namely systems capable of interacting with users and external services through natural language. As these systems become increasingly autonomous and deeply integrated into complex software ecosystems, ensuring their reliability, robustness, safety, and correctness represents a critical challenge. The workshop aims to bring together researchers and practitioners from the fields of software engineering, software testing, artificial intelligence, and runtime verification to discuss emerging approaches for the evaluation, testing, monitoring, benchmarking, and validation of conversational agentic systems. 4th IEEE International Workshop on Reliable and Secure AI for Software Engineering (ReSAISE 2026) https://resaise.github.io/2026/ Artificial Intelligence is now deeply embedded in software engineering workflows, from code generation and program repair to vulnerability detection, test generation, maintenance, and developer support. Large Language Models and agentic AI systems make these workflows more powerful, but they also introduce dependability questions that software engineering research cannot treat as an afterthought. ReSAISE’26 brings together researchers and practitioners from the AI and Software Engineering communities to discuss how AI-based solutions for software engineering can be made reliable, secure, trustworthy, and useful in real development settings. The workshop continues the ReSAISE focus on reliability and security while reflecting the growing role of LLMs, AI coding assistants, and multi-agent software engineering systems. We welcome contributions that study the development, deployment, evaluation, and operation of reliable and secure AI for software engineering, including methods, empirical studies, tools, benchmarks, experience reports, and lessons learned from negative or unexpected results. 18th International Workshop on Software Aging and Rejuvenation (WoSAR 2026) https://www.wosar.net/ WoSAR is the premier international venue for discussing the recent advances and discoveries in theoretical and practical aspects of software aging and rejuvenation research. Software aging is the progressive degradation of performance and dependability in computer programs, especially those executing for a long period of time. This phenomenon has been extensively studied for more than 20 years, as it affects many systems, from embedded devices to server software to critical systems. Software rejuvenation, i.e., proactive restart of application (components/threads/tasks), reboot of VMs or machines, and failover to a replica are the most prominent approaches to combat software aging. A variety of rejuvenation techniques, scheduling plans, scope and granularity, have been proposed for different application types and platforms.

Following requests, we are giving authors two extra weeks to submit their papers. If you have work in progress at the intersection of NLP and AI, this is your window. Now in its ninth edition, NL4AI brings together researchers working where Computational Linguistics and Natural Language Processing meet the broader field of Artificial Intelligence. The most interesting problems often live at that boundary: AI systems become more capable when they understand language deeply, and NLP methods gain new meaning when tested in wider AI settings. NL4AI is meant to be a moment for the Italian NLP community to come together. Co-located with AIxIA 2026 and supported by AILC, the workshop is a friendly, discussion-oriented venue to meet colleagues, present finished results, ongoing work, and early ideas, and to get feedback across both sides of the NLP–AI boundary. We warmly invite contributions from labs and researchers in Italy and beyond. We especially welcome contributions that connect language to reasoning, interaction, multimodality, and real-world applications, as well as critical work on evaluation, interpretability, and the societal impact of language technologies. Accepted papers will be published in the workshop proceedings via CEUR Workshop Proceedings. Depending on the number and quality of papers received, we will consider proposing a special issue in relevant journals. The Program Committee will select the Best Workshop Paper from the accepted papers. SUBMISSIONS We encourage original submissions that describe new theoretical models, applied techniques, and research in progress. Substantial extensions to works already published or presented in other locations are welcome as well. We invite two kinds of submissions: - Short/Demo Paper. Maximum length of 6 pages + up to 2 pages of Acknowledgements/Declaration on Generative AI/References - Regular Papers. Maximum length of 12 pages + up to 2 pages of references Acknowledgements/Declaration on Generative AI/References Please note that papers with less than 25000 characters will be considered short papers in the CEUR proceedings. Submissions Evaluation. Submissions will be peer-reviewed (single-blind) by the program committee members. Evaluation criteria will include novelty, significance for theory/practice, technical soundness, and quality of presentation. Note that reviewers will not be required to evaluate appendices providing a review of the papers. Appendices are intended for including details for reproducibility and/or additional results. How to Submit. Proceedings shall be submitted to CEUR-WS.org for online publication and all papers must follow the 2022 CEUR-ART - 1 Column paper style. The LaTeX template can be downloaded as source file from the NL4AI website <http://sag.art.uniroma2.it/NL4AI/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/CEURART-NL4AI-2…> or accessed as a Template in Overleaf <https://it.overleaf.com/read/cfvwgnqpvpys#a7a014>. All the papers should be submitted via EasyChair: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=nl4ai2026 Note: All submissions must be compatible with CEUR (https://ceur-ws.org/) and include the CEUR Declaration on Generative AI section ( https://ceur-ws.org/GenAI/Policy.html).

Special Issues of Digital Comparative Literature (Call for Expressions of Interest)
by Pianzola, Federico 08 Jul '26

08 Jul '26

We are seeking articles for a number of special issues within the framework of the International Comparative Literature Association (ICLA) Short-term Research Committee on Digital Comparative Literature (DCL) Comparative Literary Studies and Digital Humanities pose a double, mutually enriching challenge to one another. Distant reading and large-scale digitization have opened new perspectives on literature, yet comparative work remains among the hardest terrains for digital research, not least because of multilingualism and intermediality, since computational tools and corpora are still overwhelmingly English-centric and text-focused. This collection invites contributions that work at this intersection and that speak to a readership of comparative literature scholars. We welcome proposals addressing any aspect of digital comparative literature, including but not limited to: computational and distant reading methods and their epistemological stakes; the construction, use, and politics of large digital archives; books and reading in a postdigital context (multimodality, digital social reading); data visualization for literary analysis (network analysis, mapping); electronic literature, interactive digital narrative, digital storytelling; and machine translation, language models, and artificial intelligence (AI) for literary analysis. Theoretical reflections, methodological proposals, and concrete case studies are all welcome, provided they are framed for and accessible to comparative literature scholars. We have confirmed interest from a few comparative literature journals for the publication of special issues. A selection of the proposals received will be made — in consultation with the ICLA-DCL committee — and accepted articles will be assigned to the best-fitting venue, with a concrete proposal then made to each author. Two article formats - Short articles: max. 4,000 words - Long articles: max. 8,000 words Please indicate your intended format in your submission. How to express interest Submit an abstract of up to 500 words together with a short biographical note (max. 150 words) to Federico Pianzola (f.pianzola(a)rug.nl) and Samya Brata Roy (sroy4(a)gitam.edu). Deadline: 7 September 2026. Indicative timeline - September 2026: review of proposals and assignment to venues, in consultation with the ICLA-DCL committee - Late September 2026: authors contacted with a proposed venue and timeline - From Autumn 2027 onwards: first publications, with subsequent articles appearing on a rolling basis depending on each venue's schedule Selection and timelines will depend on fit with the participating journals; not all expressions of interest can be guaranteed placement. Preliminary inquiries for the suitability of contributions are welcome, please address them to Federico Pianzola (f.pianzola(a)rug.nl). The text of this call is also available at https://icla-dcl.quarto.pub/info/news/2026/ICLA-DCL-journals-cfp.html Kind regards, ICLA-DCL committee

Second Call for Papers: The 7th Workshop on Gender Bias in NLP (GeBNLP 2026)
by Agnieszka Faleńska 07 Jul '26

07 Jul '26

Second Call for Papers: The 7th Workshop on Gender Bias in NLP (GeBNLP 2026) 5th AACL & 15th IJCNLP, November 9, 2026 Hengqin, China (Remote-only mode) About the Workshop The GeBNLP workshop <https://gebnlp-workshop.github.io/> serves as a leading venue for the study, evaluation, and mitigation of gender bias in natural language processing. As large language models (LLMs) become foundational to recent NLP applications, addressing how these systems represent and affect different genders, alongside intersecting demographic axes such as race, ethnicity, nationality, religion, and ability, remains a critical challenge for the AI community. While foundational progress has been made in algorithmic debiasing and balanced data collection, recent large-scale evaluations reveal that state-of-the-art models continue to exhibit persistent stereotypes and confidence disparities across intersectional identities (Siddique et al., 2024; Savoldi et al., 2024). Our workshop serves as a multidisciplinary bridge, enabling researchers to define shared standards for tasks and metrics that ensure technical advancements are deeply rooted in the social and ethical realities of systemic harm (Dai et al., 2024). Topics of Interest We invite submissions on a wide range of topics related to gender bias in NLP, including but not limited to: Measurement and Evaluation: New metrics and datasets for quantifying bias in LLMs, MT, and multimodal systems. Mitigation Strategies: Technical approaches to debiasing (e.g., fine-tuning, adapter-based methods, or prompting strategies). Multilingual and Cross-Cultural Perspectives: Bias in low-resource languages or non-Western cultural contexts. Intersectionality: Research exploring how gender bias intersects with race, disability, age, or nationality. Ethical and Legal Frameworks: Policy implications and the "Human-in-the-loop" role in auditing AI systems. Authors are encouraged to go beyond binary gender definitions and discuss how their work addresses the complexity of intersecting stereotypes and the diverse demographic contexts involved. Submission Guidelines Long Papers are up to 8 pages and short Papers are up to 4 pages (excluding references and appendix). Non-Archival Submissions: Authors may opt for non-archival submission, allowing work of standard conference quality to be presented without being published in the official proceedings. Submission Link <https://openreview.net/group?id=aclweb.org/AACL-IJCNLP/2026/Workshop/GeBNLP…> (Blind submission is required) Important Dates Paper Submission Deadline: Wednesday, September 2, 2026 Pre-reviewed (ARR) submission deadline: Tuesday, September 29, 2026 Notification of Acceptance: Friday, October 2, 2026 Camera-Ready Version Due: Monday, October 12, 2026 Workshop Date: Monday, November 9, 2026 Organizers Giuseppe Attanasio, Instituto de Telecomunicações, Lisbon Christine Basta, Alexandria University & HiTZ, University of the Basque Agnieszka Faleńska, University of Stuttgart Vera Neplenbroek, University of Amsterdam Debora Nozza, Bocconi University Karolina Stańczak, ETH AI Center, Zurich Marta R.

We also introduce the Special Theme "The Human in Language", which we hope will stimulate exciting research contributions. As in recent years, some of the presentations at the conference will be of papers accepted by the Transactions of the ACL (TACL) and the Computational Linguistics (CL) journals. *Submission information* EACL 2027 will use ACL Rolling Review (ARR) as its reviewing system, but final decisions will be made by the conference. Both the submission of articles for review and the commitment of reviewed articles to the conference will be handled via the OpenReview platform, in a two-step process: * Authors submit articles to ARR, where submissions receive reviews and meta-reviews from ARR reviewers and action editors. * Authors commit their reviewed articles to a publication venue (e.g. EACL 2027), where Senior Area Chairs and Program Chairs make acceptance decisions from the ARR reviews and meta-reviews. Papers must be submitted, at the latest, by the ARR 2026 August cycle. Papers that have received reviews and a meta-review from ARR (whether from the ARR 2026 August cycle or an earlier ARR cycle) may be committed to EACL via the commitment link. Dual submissions are not allowed; please check the ARR Call for Papers for details. The reviewing process will continue to be double-blind. Reviewers will not see authors, nor will authors see reviewers, and reviews on ARR will not be made publicly visible. However, authors will be given the option through ARR to make their anonymized submitted articles publicly visible. Following the ACL and ARR policies, there is no anonymity period requirement. During the commitment phase, it is not allowed to modify the author list (addition/deletion of authors is not allowed); however, modification of author order is possible. The authors should contact ARR with any questions about the review process at editors [at] aclrollingreview.org. For questions about commitment and post-review topics, contact eacl2027-pcs [at] googlegroups.com. *Important Dates* * *ARR submission deadline (long & short papers)*: 3 August 2026 * *Reviewer registration deadline for ALL authors*: 5 August 2026 * *Author response period*: 14 - 19 September 2026 * *Reviewer engagement & author-reviewer discussion*: 20 - 24 September 2026 * *Meta-reviews released*: 8 October 2026 * *EACL 2027 commitment deadline*: 11 October 2026 * *Notification of acceptance (long & short papers)*: 12 November 2026 * *Camera-ready papers due (long & short)*: 26 November 2026 * *Main Conference (Workshops/Tutorials dates TBD)*: 9 - 14 March 2027 All deadlines are 11:59 PM UTC-12:00 ("anywhere on Earth"). *Important change*: For this cycle, author response and author-reviewer discussion are two separate stages. In the first (14-19 September 2026), authors take the time to respond to the reviewers; reviewers will not be engaged at this stage. In the second (20-24 September 2026), reviewers and authors engage in any necessary discussion and reviewers finalise their reviews. Further details will be provided in due time. Mandatory Reviewing Workload All authors are expected to sign up to review, or serve as an Area Chair or Senior Area Chair, with assignments subsequently based on qualifications. After submission, all authors must complete the author registration form by 5 August 2026 EoD AoE. If you receive assignments, reviews must be completed by 7 September, and meta-reviews by 2 October. In case of emergencies, the chairs should be warned via the emergency declaration form. Exemptions to this policy are detailed in the ARR Author Reviewer Exemption Policy page. Highly irresponsible reviewers may be ineligible to (re-)submit or commit their work during the next ARR cycle. Submitting authors should (a) make sure all other authors are aware of this policy, and (b) check that everybody on their team(s) submits their (meta-)reviews on time and in accordance with the guidelines. Additional details on the definition of highly irresponsible reviewers and the corresponding ARR policy are available at https://aclrollingreview.org/incentives2025 *AI Reviewing Experiment (opt-in)* The Program Committee plans to run an opt-in AI Reviewing Experiment to collect feedback from authors on the utility of AI Reviewers in the review process. The AI reviews for opted-in submissions will not inform any part of the conference decision process. The experiment will run under IRB approval, using open-weights models on in-house compute resources, or closed models that guarantee zero-data retention. *Paper Submission Details* Both long and short paper submissions should follow all ARR submission requirements, including instructions for two-way anonymized review; authorship; citation and comparison; the multiple submission, resubmission and withdrawal policies; ACL's Publication Ethics Policy and ARR's Ethics Policy (including the responsible NLP research checklist); ACL's Disclosure Policy; a dedicated Limitations section; writing assistance rules; paper templates; and optional supplementary materials. Please see the ARR CfP for full details (https://aclrollingreview.org/cfp). *Contact Information* General Chair: * Isabelle Augenstein, University of Copenhagen Program Chairs: * Malvina Nissim, University of Groningen * Roi Reichart, Technion - Israel Institute of Technology * Sara Tonelli, Fondazione Bruno Kessler For questions related to paper submission and the review process in general, email: editors [at] aclrollingreview.org For questions about commitment and post-review related topics, email: eacl2027-pcs [at] googlegroups.com Read more: https://2027.eacl.org/calls/papers/
