papers need not report mature scientific results; they can also
describe early-stage work, starting points for discussions, or novel
perspectives on known problems.*

Submission
link:https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=foiks2026<https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=foiks2026>
Poster papers will undergo a rather lightweight review process. A good
poster paper should include motivation, a clear problem statement, and
initial results or report on work in progress. Preliminary ideas and
modest extensions of previous work are welcome.
At least one author of each accepted poster paper must register for
the conference. Each accepted poster will be presented in a lightning
talk and a poster session at FoIKS 2026.
For inquiries, contact: [email protected]
------------------------------------------------------------------------
PUBLICATION
Accepted poster papers will appear in the FoIKS 2026 proceedings,
published by Springer in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS)
series.
