Call for Papers for the Scientific Conference

The CSNT 2026 conference aims to provide a leading forum for researchers, engineers, practitioners, and decision-makers to present and discuss recent advances in computer science and information technologies, with a particular emphasis on Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Data Science, and their role in shaping next-generation digital systems.
In a rapidly evolving digital landscape, computer science continues to drive innovation across software engineering, distributed systems, data management, and intelligent computing. Among these advances, Artificial Intelligence and Data Science play a central role in transforming how systems are designed, implemented, and operated, enabling automation, adaptability, and data-driven decision-makin
From healthcare and smart cities to cybersecurity, education, and sustainable development, modern computing solutions—especially those leveraging AI—are addressing complex societal and industrial challenges. These developments raise important questions related to performance, scalability, security, ethics, and trust, which must be addressed through interdisciplinary approaches.
CSNT 2026 encourages collaboration across computer science, engineering, and related disciplines, bringing together academia, industry, and policy stakeholders. The conference aims to foster discussions on both foundational and applied research, with a particular focus on responsible, scalable, and impactful AI-driven innovations.
