CfP: PPSN 2026 – 19th International Conference on Parallel Problem Solving from Nature, 29 Aug–2 Sep 2026, Trento (Italy),

Dear Colleagues,

The 19th International Conference on Parallel Problem Solving from Nature (PPSN) will take place in Trento, Italy, from August 29 to September 2, 2026.
We invite submissions on all types of iterative optimization heuristics. Notably, we also welcome submissions on connections between search heuristics and machine learning or other artificial intelligence approaches. We encourage submissions covering the entire spectrum of work, ranging from rigorously derived mathematical results to carefully crafted empirical studies.

Important Dates:
- Paper submission deadline: March 28, 2026
- Reviews due: May 11, 2026
- Notification of acceptance: May 22, 2026
- Camera-ready deadline: June 12, 2026


Submission Details:
- Papers must be original and not under review elsewhere.
Submissions must follow the Springer LNCS format and be submitted as PDF via the conference system.
- The page limit is 14 pages, excluding references.
- Authors' names need not be hidden for the reviewing process.
- Springer's proceedings LaTeX templates are available on Overleaf. If authors wish to include supplementary material, we suggest they host a separate document online (e.g., Zenodo) and cite it appropriately within the paper.
- We encourage authors to select the appropriate paper category in the submission tool and not overuse the "other" category.
- Accepted papers will be presented as posters and published in the LNCS proceedings by Springer.
