Due to continued interest and several requests from prospective contributors, we are pleased to open submissions of full papers for the CIB W78 Conference 2026. Therefore, authors are warmly invited to submit a full paper for review via the Abstract Submission System. This extended opportunity is intended to support high-quality contributions that were unable to meet the abstract deadline and are interested in submitting a full paper for the conference.
All full papers should be submitted directly within the system and must clearly indicate authorship details. Submissions will be reviewed in line with the conference’s academic standards and thematic scope. Deadline for late submissions: 29th of June 2026. The full paper template is available here: Full Paper Template.
We strongly encourage early submission within this extended window, as late papers will be considered on a rolling basis and subject to available capacity.
