We are proud to announce the Twelfth Spanish-German Symposium on Applied Computer Science (SGSOACS 2026). The SGSOACS symposia were born to promote collaboration in applied Computer Science primarily but not exclusively between Spanish and German universities. This edition is organized jointly by the University of Cadiz, the Frankfurt University of Applied Sciences, and the Complutense University of Madrid.
Venue
SGSOACS 2026 will be held from June 29 to July 1st, 2026 at
Conference Venue Waldtraut Oberursel
Hohemarkstrasse 192
61440 Oberursel
Germany
The programme includes high quality talks on the following topics:
- Complex Event Processing
- Cyber Security and Blockchain
- Data Science
- Human-Activity Recognition (HAR)
- Smart Cities and Ambient-Assisted Living
- Software Architectures
- Software Engineering
- Software Testing
In its inception, the symposium goal is to present highly speculative research as a series of talks followed by open questions and debate.
We are happy to invite any student, researcher, or professional interested in these topics to join us and participate in the event. While we believe that this edition will bring in further opportunities for the existing collaboration within the Spanish-German community of Computer Scientists we explicitly encourage researchers from any country or institution to submit papers and to attend. Regarding ongoing collaborations, this will surely increase the quality of our current and future research.
Please find the details of the registration and submission process below.
