IEEE PerCom, now in its 24th year, will be held at the National Research Council Area, Pisa, Italy from March 16 – 20, 2026, as a physical in-person conference. PerCom is the premier annual scholarly venue in pervasive computing and communications. Pervasive computing is constantly at the forefront of mobile systems research and has found its way into many commercial systems due to tremendous advances in a broad spectrum of technologies and topics such as wireless networking, mobile and distributed computing, sensor systems, ambient intelligence, and smart devices.

IEEE Percom 2026 will be held in person. Remote presentations and pre-recorded videos are not allowed unless all authors of an accepted paper are under special circumstances that prevent them from attending the conference in person. Requests for such exceptions will be considered carefully by the organizing committees. We are sympathetic to concerns and sentiments about our in-person focus. We will accommodate remote authors/speakers if they have Visa-related travel or COVID/health-related travel issues on case-by-case basis.
