PMS is an international workshop series initiated by the EURO Working Group on Project Management and Scheduling. The workshop is held every two years in different locations in Europe and brings together researchers and practitioners from Computer Science, Operations Research, Optimization Engineering, Mathematical Programming, and Industrial Engineering. The scientific program covers a broad range of topics related to Project Management and Scheduling, including both theoretical and applied research.
The 20th International Workshop on Project Management and Scheduling – PMS 2026 – takes place from April 14 to 16, 2026, at LAAS-CNRS in Toulouse, France.
A Master Class for young researchers, including tutorial and practice sessions, will be organized the day before the workshop, on April 13, 2026.
Please visit https://pms2026.sciencesconf.org/.
The workshop covers the following (non-exhaustive) list of topics:
• Project Management: network modeling, project scheduling, project scheduling under uncertainty, project risk management and control, multi-project scheduling, resource management, due-date management, applications and software
• Machine Scheduling: shop scheduling, parallel machine scheduling, scheduling with additional constraints, machine assignment and scheduling, flexible/robust scheduling, grid scheduling, multicriteria scheduling, applications and software
Methodological and theoretical papers related to Operations Research, Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning models and exact and heuristic algorithms for scheduling problems are welcome, as well as papers on data-driven approaches, practical applications, and industrial case-studies.
All researchers, academics, PhD students, and practitioners working on these themes are invited to join PMS 2026 by submitting an extended abstract (max. 4 pages). All submissions will undergo a standard reviewing process of international workshops, and a selection of submissions will be presented during the workshop. After the workshop, authors will have the opportunity to submit full papers to a special issue of an international journal.
For guidelines and templates, please visit the Paper Submission page. Papers can be submitted until November 28, 2025.
We are looking forward to your submission and your participation in the workshop!
Best regards
The PMS2026 organizing team
