From the Program Chairs
The eighth edition of CloudIoT Pulse continues the conference's charter, established in 2019, of providing a rigorous venue for original research at the intersection of distributed cloud systems, the Internet of Things, and autonomous agent architectures. Across seven prior editions the conference has published 380 peer-reviewed papers contributed by authors from 42 countries.
Submissions are reviewed under a double-blind protocol by a programme committee of 412 active researchers drawn from leading academic institutions and industrial research laboratories. The 2026 edition introduces a dedicated track on the foundations of agentic systems, while maintaining the conference's long-standing commitments to reproducibility, artifact evaluation, and open archival publication.
