Lieu : Lyon, France
First International Workshop on Agents, Things and Lightweight AI for Sustainability (ATLAS)
https://atlas.liris.cnrs.fr/
Colocated with ICWE’2026 (https://icwe2026.webengineering.org/)
About the workshop:
——————-
As IoT proliferates, the environmental and technical impact of billions of connected devices demands urgent attention. This workshop examines how AI-augmented agents should be designed, managed and coordinated while optimizing resource consumption and operating under frugal conditions and infrastructures. It also aims to review existing implementations of the Web of Things (WoT) standards with respect to long-term maintainability.
The primary goals of ATLAS are to:
– Present cutting-edge research at the intersection of agent-based systems, IoT, and sustainability
– Identify open research challenges and future directions for frugal, standards-compliant agentic systems
– Build a community around sustainable WoT technologies
The workshop topics include but are not limited to:
– Federated learning for edge intelligence
– Embedding intensive inference algorithms into constrained devices
– Predictive maintenance to reduce e-waste
– Frugal hardware-related concerns
– Ethical frameworks for sustainable AI deployment
– Resource-aware agentic LLM-based systems
– Complexity of embedded semantic Web processes
– Energy, network and/or memory management in decentralized Web-based architectures
– Deployment of IoT / WoT platforms on Constrained devices
– Lifecycle and maintenability of Cyber-Physical Systems
– Robust and resilient distributed agentic systems
– Environmental footprint of sensor and actuator-based infrastructures
– Observability and governance of agents in decentralized architectures
– Coordination architectures for agents with distributed knowledge
– Application areas such as product passports and carbon footprint tracking
The workshop format will include a keynote talk and oral presentations of long and short accepted contributions, based on peer-review.
