Workshops are an important part of the technical programme, as they provide an appropriate environment to discuss emerging trends, blue-sky ideas, and new directions in areas related to smart cities. They promote active discussion and participation, encouraging debate on trends, future developments, and promising research paths. Therefore, workshop papers do not necessarily need to report final consolidated results; they may also present work in progress, perspectives, visions of new trends, research opportunities, and new problem dimensions, provided that the topic has the potential to stimulate fruitful discussions during the workshop sessions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Workshops<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The IEEE ISC2 2026 technical programme will include the following workshops.
