Invitation

Submit your work to IMCCRT 2026

The organising committee invites unpublished, original contributions from researchers worldwide for the 13th edition of the conference. Submissions are welcome in any of the twelve tracks, and interdisciplinary work that spans several of them is particularly encouraged.

Every submission is screened for scope and similarity, then sent for double-blind review to at least two reviewers with subject expertise. Accepted papers are presented online on 30 September 2026 and published free of cost with a CrossRef DOI.
