The Laboratory of Parallel Architectures, Embedded and High-Performance Computing (LAPECI) (Oran1 University) is pleased to announce the organization of the 5th International Conference on Embedded and Distributed Systems (EDiS'2026 ). The conference will be held on November 2-5, 2026, at Oran 1 University. (https://univ-oran1.dz/edis/edis26/ )

For the first time, EDiS will include two cross-sector workshops: one on precision agriculture (Smart Farming) and the other on Smart Health.

The first workshop, organized with LBRAP and RIIR laboratories, is a special event dedicated to exploring the latest advancements in technology for the agriculture sector. This joint event brings together researchers, developers, and practitioners to explore the exciting intersection of embedded systems, distributed computing, and smart farming technologies.

The second workshop (Smart Health I) will be the first edition, organized on November 4 and 5, 2026. The goal of this event is to inform and raise awareness among operators and decision-makers about the importance of e-health research, particularly the use of the latest artificial intelligence technologies and their medical applications. The idea is to bring together medical experts working in this field with IT specialists in order to implement ideas for dedicated platforms and/or software. The framework is that of pilot projects carried out in collaboration with the medical sector.

 EDiS'2026 brings together researchers, developers, and practitioners from around the world to explore the latest advancements in a variety of cutting-edge fields, including:
• Embedded and Real-time systems: Design, analysis, and optimization of systems with strict performance and resource constraints.
• Parallel and Distributed Computing: Efficient utilization of multiple processors and distributed resources for complex problems.
• Internet of Things (IoT) in precision agriculture: Leveraging interconnected sensors and devices to optimize agricultural practices and resource utilization.
• Artificial intelligence and machine learning: Development and application of intelligent algorithms for various tasks in diverse domains.
• Advanced Architectures and Network on Chip (NoC): Design and implementation of efficient on-chip communication architectures.
• Multi-Objective Optimization using Metaheuristics: Efficient search algorithms for finding solutions that optimize multiple competing objectives.
• Model Driven Engineering (MDE): Utilizing models to automate various aspects of software development.
• Communication Networks, Protocols and Security: Design, analysis, and improvement of secure and reliable communication infrastructure.
• Automotive Systems: Advances in technology and methodologies for the development of intelligent and connected vehicles.
• New Trends in Information and Computing Technology: Exploring emerging trends and potential future directions in computing and information technology.
• Smart farming: Utilizing technology to improve decision-making and resource management in agricultural production.
• Smart Health : Applying embedded systems, IoT, and AI to improve healthcare services, monitoring, and diagnostics.
The conference will be in hybrid mode ( in person and virtual).
