Practical cases providing insights and real-world experience are encouraged to be submitted. Submitted contributions will be peer-reviewed and may be submitted as:     Full papers for publication in Springer’s Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS).     Extended abstracts for presentation only. The theme of this year’s conference is “Logistics in the Age of AI.” The conference topics include, among others:     Operations research, planning and decision support     Machine learning and AI for logistics     Routing     Freight, multimodal and nearshoring     Maritime logistics and port operations     Urban logistics and public transport     Warehousing and inventory     Supply chain design and sustainability     Reverse logistics and circular economy     Humanitarian and health-care logistics     Large-scale and combinatorial optimization     IoT, real-time systems and ICT     Data-driven logistics, benchmarking and reproducibility     Uncertainty, stochastic and robust planning     Simulation, modelling and digital twins     Energy-aware logistics     Sector-specific studies (e.g., agro, land)     Case studies, demos, datasets and Tools Important Dates (Extended — Firm Deadlines)     Full paper submission deadline:  May 31, 2026     Abstract submission deadline: June 15, 2026     Notification of acceptance for full papers and abstracts: June 30, 2026     Early-bird registration deadline: July 15, 2026 Submissions The submission of abstracts and papers will be handled through the ICCL 2026 EasyChair management system. Full paper submissions Full papers should have a length between 8 to 15 pages following the LNCS style files. For a paper to be included in this volume, it should be presented at the conference by one of the authors.     Upload the pdf file of the 8-15 page regular paper in LNCS style on the EasyChair platform.     Paste the abstract corresponding with the full paper in the textbox (maximum 3000 characters, including spaces) to be included in the abstracts booklet, which will be distributed     during the conference.     Authors should consult Springer’s authors’ guidelines and use their proceedings templates, either for LaTeX or for Word, for the preparation of their papers. Additionally,     Springer’s proceedings LaTeX templates are available in Overleaf. Springer encourages authors to include their ORCIDs in their papers. In addition, the corresponding author of     each paper, acting on behalf of all of the authors of that paper, must complete and sign a Consent-to-Publish form. The corresponding author signing the copyright form should     match the corresponding author marked on the paper. Once the files have been sent to Springer, changes relating to the authorship of the papers cannot be made.
