Following CEUR-WS policy, authors must “declare and detail the specific contributions of any GenAI tools and services used in the preparation of their work.” https://ceur-ws.org/GenAI/Policy.html A section on “Declaration on Generative AI” is required following the template (even if to declare no generative AI tools have been employed).

Paper submissions, when open, must be made through Easychair https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=fois2026 by selecting “author”, “New Submission”, and the workshop COMOD (which is listed as a track of FOIS 2026).

All submitted papers will be evaluated by members of the Program Committee, and, where appropriate, constructive suggestions for improvement will be communicated to the authors.

Publication:

Proceedings will be submitted to CEUR-WS.org for online Open Access publication in the JOWO 2026 volume in the IAOA series (http://ceur-ws.org/iaoa.html). This series is indexed by SCOPUS and DBLP. (For the previous editions of the JOWO proceedings, see https://www.iaoa.org/jowo/ )
