The 39th International Conference on Industrial, Engineering & Other Applications of Applied Intelligent Systems IEA/AIE 2026 continues the tradition of emphasizing on applications of applied intelligent systems to solve real-life problems in all areas including engineering, science, industry, automation & robotics, business & finance, medicine and biomedicine, bioinformatics, cyberspace, and human-machine.

The conference will publish a Special issue in Applied Intelligence, after the conference selecting the best papers in terms of quality, reviews, and presentation. The selection will be done after the conference through emails sent to the corresponding authors with detailed instructions.  Therefore we advise all authors to do their best in good presentation. 

The sequences would be:
– submission to the conference;
– acceptance at the conference and inclusion in the proceedings;
– and only then possible invitation (with further instructions) to the journal special issue by its guest editors later.
