Workshop on Agentic AI and Digital Twins for Secure IoT-Enabled Smart Cities
The convergence of Agentic AI, Digital Twin technology, the Internet of Things, and next-generation networking is fundamentally reshaping how modern cities are designed, operated, and secured. Agentic AI systems, capable of autonomous perception, reasoning, planning, and action, mark a paradigm shift from reactive to proactive urban management, enabling infrastructure that anticipates rather than merely responds.
When paired with Digital Twins that deliver high-fidelity virtual replicas of physical assets, dense IoT sensor networks streaming continuous real-time data, and pervasive 5G/6G, LoRaWAN, and NB-IoT connectivity, these technologies unlock unprecedented situational awareness, predictive insight, and adaptive decision-making across smart city ecosystems. Yet this same interconnectedness introduces profound security and privacy challenges that traditional, perimeter-based approaches were never designed to handle.
The AgenTwin-IoT'26 Workshop brings together researchers, practitioners, and industry stakeholders to explore the architectures, algorithms, communication protocols, and real-world deployments that advance the state of the art toward autonomous, secure, and resilient smart cities. The workshop is co-located with the ACS/IEEE AICCSA 2026 Conference, and all accepted papers will be published in proceedings indexed by IEEE Xplore, Scopus, and the Web of Science (WoS).
Autonomous perception, reasoning, and action for adaptive urban systems.
High-fidelity virtual replicas of physical infrastructure.
Pervasive sensing and ultra-reliable connectivity at city scale.
Trustworthy, resilient defenses for autonomous urban infrastructure.
We invite original research, work-in-progress, and practical experience reports across six thematic areas — including, but not limited to:
Full Papers — up to 6 pages in IEEE two-column format (10pt). The review process is double-blind; manuscripts must not include author names, affiliations, or identifying self-references.
All accepted workshop papers will be part of the AICCSA 2026 proceedings and submitted for inclusion in IEEE Xplore, Scopus, and DBLP, subject to meeting IEEE quality and scope requirements.
