Call for Papers

The International Conference on Computational Intelligence and Cyber Physical Systems (CICPS 2027) aims to provide a dynamic and interdisciplinary platform to explore the convergence of Computational Intelligence (CI) and Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS)—a fusion that is transforming the way we design, operate, and secure the intelligent systems of tomorrow.

Computational Intelligence techniques—rooted in nature-inspired, adaptive, and learning-based algorithms—offer innovative solutions for complex, uncertain, and nonlinear real-world problems. On the other hand, Cyber-Physical Systems represent a new generation of engineered systems that tightly integrate computation, networking, and physical processes, often interacting with human supervisors.

Together, these disciplines are driving technological breakthroughs across sectors such as autonomous systems, agriculture, aerospace, infrastructure, energy, environmental monitoring, healthcare, manufacturing, and transportation. CICPS 2027 will convene top researchers, practitioners, and industry leaders to showcase state-of-the-art innovations and chart a course for future developments that promise profound societal and economic impact.
