The workshops aim at discussing recent developments and open challenges in engineering high-assurance software and systems, and they are open to exchange of ideas at an early stage before maturation. All accepted workshop papers will be published by IEEE in the ISSRE 2026 accompanying proceedings volume. The following workshops are confirmed and will be organized co-located with ISSRE 2026. 3rd International Workshop on Advanced Intelligent Software Quality (AISQ 2026) https://sites.google.com/view/aisq-2026/home In the era of Industry 4.0, advanced intelligent software systems, such as cyber-physical systems (CPS), machine learning-based systems, manufacturing systems, digital twin systems, quantum software applications, multi-agent systems, real-time systems, and LLM-based systems, are playing an increasingly important role in both the industrial world and our daily lives. Failures or requirement violations in these systems may lead to disruptive consequences or even catastrophic outcomes. Nowadays, extensive research, spanning both formal methods and engineering practices, has been conducted to improve the quality of advanced intelligent software from various aspects, such as usability, correctness, reliability, scalability, and robustness. New research topics and directions, such as prompt engineering and harness engineering, are constantly emerging. Our AISQ aims to bridge the gap between the increasing complexity of modern systems and the scalability of quality assurance approaches and fundamental theories. Specifically, AISQ seeks to collect promising and high-quality research achievements and provide an international venue to discuss advanced discoveries and emerging trends related to the quality of Advanced Intelligent Software in both academia and industry. 3rd International Workshop on Human Factors for Software Dependability (HFSD 2026) https://hfsdworkshop.github.io/ Software is created by humans and widely used by humans, with the ultimate goal of benefiting society. HFSD is a specialized workshop that brings together researchers from multiple disciplines to address the human factors that shape the reliability, safety, security, and availability of software systems. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, human error, human–AI collaborative programming, social factors in security risks, and human-in-the-loop approaches for trustworthy autonomous systems. 1st International Workshop on Quality Assurance of Conversational Agentic Systems (QA4AGENTS) https://qa4agents.github.io/ The QA4Agents workshop focuses on quality assurance techniques, methodologies, and tools for conversational agentic systems, namely systems capable of interacting with users and external services through natural language. As these systems become increasingly autonomous and deeply integrated into complex software ecosystems, ensuring their reliability, robustness, safety, and correctness represents a critical challenge. The workshop aims to bring together researchers and practitioners from the fields of software engineering, software testing, artificial intelligence, and runtime verification to discuss emerging approaches for the evaluation, testing, monitoring, benchmarking, and validation of conversational agentic systems. 4th IEEE International Workshop on Reliable and Secure AI for Software Engineering (ReSAISE 2026) https://resaise.github.io/2026/ Artificial Intelligence is now deeply embedded in software engineering workflows, from code generation and program repair to vulnerability detection, test generation, maintenance, and developer support. Large Language Models and agentic AI systems make these workflows more powerful, but they also introduce dependability questions that software engineering research cannot treat as an afterthought. ReSAISE’26 brings together researchers and practitioners from the AI and Software Engineering communities to discuss how AI-based solutions for software engineering can be made reliable, secure, trustworthy, and useful in real development settings. The workshop continues the ReSAISE focus on reliability and security while reflecting the growing role of LLMs, AI coding assistants, and multi-agent software engineering systems. We welcome contributions that study the development, deployment, evaluation, and operation of reliable and secure AI for software engineering, including methods, empirical studies, tools, benchmarks, experience reports, and lessons learned from negative or unexpected results. 18th International Workshop on Software Aging and Rejuvenation (WoSAR 2026) https://www.wosar.net/ WoSAR is the premier international venue for discussing the recent advances and discoveries in theoretical and practical aspects of software aging and rejuvenation research. Software aging is the progressive degradation of performance and dependability in computer programs, especially those executing for a long period of time. This phenomenon has been extensively studied for more than 20 years, as it affects many systems, from embedded devices to server software to critical systems. Software rejuvenation, i.e., proactive restart of application (components/threads/tasks), reboot of VMs or machines, and failover to a replica are the most prominent approaches to combat software aging. A variety of rejuvenation techniques, scheduling plans, scope and granularity, have been proposed for different application types and platforms.

It takes ontologies as input and determines as output an alignment, that is, a set of correspondences between the semantically related entities of those ontologies. These correspondences can be used for various tasks, such as ontology merging, data interlinking, query answering or navigation over knowledge graphs. Thus, matching ontologies enables the knowledge and data expressed with the matched ontologies to interoperate. The workshop has three goals: 1. To bring together leaders from academia, industry and user institutions to assess how academic advances are addressing real-world requirements. The workshop will strive to improve academic awareness of industrial and final user needs, and therefore, direct research towards those needs. Simultaneously, the workshop will serve to inform industry and user representatives about existing research efforts that may meet their requirements. The workshop will also investigate how the ontology matching technology is going to evolve, especially with respect to data interlinking, knowledge graph and web table matching tasks. 2. To conduct an extensive and rigorous evaluation of ontology matching and instance matching (link discovery) approaches through the OAEI (Ontology Alignment Evaluation Initiative) 2026 campaign: https://oaei.ontologymatching.org/2026/ 3. To examine similarities and differences from other, old, new and emerging, techniques and usages, such as web table matching or knowledge embeddings. TOPICS of interest include but are not limited to: Business and use cases for matching (e.g., big, open, closed data); Requirements to matching from specific application scenarios; Formal foundations and frameworks for matching; Novel matching methods, including link prediction, ontology-based access; Matching and knowledge graphs; Matching and deep learning; Matching and embeddings; Matching and big data; Matching and linked data; Instance matching, data interlinking and relations between them; Privacy-aware matching; Process model matching; Large-scale and efficient matching techniques; Matcher selection, combination and tuning; User involvement (including both technical and organizational aspects); Explanations in matching; Social and collaborative matching; Uncertainty in matching; Expressive alignments; Reasoning with alignments; Alignment coherence and debugging; Alignment management; FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable) alignments; Matching for traditional applications (e.g., data science); Matching for emerging applications (e.g., web tables, knowledge graphs).
