Intelligent Environments (IE) are physical spaces where digital technologies are seamlessly embedded to support users and their contexts. These environments aim to enhance human experience, improve resource management, and promote environmental and situational awareness. 
 
As in previous editions of the Intelligent Environments conference, workshops will complement the main conference program by offering focused discussions on emerging and specialized topics.
 

The IE2026 workshops will take place on the first two days of the conference, June 15 and 16, 2026. Depending on the number of participants, workshops may be organized as half-day, full-day, or even two-day events.

Workshops: 

● ALLEGET– Workshop on Artificial intelligence and machine learning for Emerging Topics 
● WISHWell – Workshop on Intelligent Environments Supporting Healthcare and Well-being 
● WORIE – Workshop on the Reliability of Intelligent Environments 

ALLEGET– Workshop on Artificial intelligence and Machine Learning for Emerging Topics

Multimedia content, ranging from text, images, and videos to audio, obtained from users and physical devices, paves the way for a novel research avenue centered on analyzing and interpreting multi-modal information. This research gives place to Social Intelligent Environments by combining IEs and online social networks (OSN) as the primary multimedia content source. This workshop seeks mechanisms adept at extracting, fusing, and analyzing data from multiple sources based on artificial intelligence techniques, emphasizing the inherent data heterogeneity characteristic of OSN integrated into any intelligent environment. 

This workshop is dedicated to developing intelligent solutions for social media processing that consider such inherent heterogeneity. By creating mechanisms capable of extracting knowledge from multimedia data posted by users on online social media platforms or the fusion of different types of data coming from these feeds, we can inspire and enable practical applications in the field of social media analysis.

WISHWell – Workshop on Intelligent Environments Supporting Healthcare and Well-being 

The workshop will bring together researchers from both industry and academia from the various disciplines to contribute to this new edition of the International Workshop on Intelligent Environments Supporting Healthcare and Well-Being. This event previously joined forces with the International Workshop “PervaSense – Situation recognition and medical data analysis in Pervasive Health environments” and the workshop on “Smart Healthcare and Healing Environments”. Healthcare environments (within the hospital and the home) are extremely complex and challenging to manage from an IT and IS perspective, as they are required to cope with an assortment of patient conditions under various circumstances with a number of resource constraints. Pervasive healthcare technologies seek to respond to a variety of these pressures by integrating them within existing healthcare services. It is essential that intelligent pervasive healthcare solutions are developed and correctly integrated to assist health care professionals in delivering high levels of patient care. It is equally important that these pervasive solutions are used to empower patients and relatives for self-care and management of their health to provide seamless access for health care services.

WoRIE – Workshop on the Reliability of Intelligent Environments 

Intelligent Environments (IE) bring together software, sensors, communication networks, and diverse user needs to create systems that can transform everyday life. However, each component carries vulnerabilities: software is notoriously complex, sensors can fail, networks may be unreliable, and users often place systems under conditions that were never anticipated. These challenges are amplified by the fact that many IE applications directly affect human well-being—for instance, independent living systems that detect health emergencies or autonomous vehicles where even minor errors can have catastrophic outcomes. To mitigate these risks, the research and development community must establish rigorous, domain-specific standards and methodologies that extend beyond lessons learned from other fields.

This event aims to unite developers and researchers to confront these challenges, share innovative practices, and build greater trust and confidence in intelligent environments.
