AOMC is a premier international workshop dedicated to multi-modal computing. Following successful past two editions at ISCA (themed Exploring Applications and Building Tools), AOMC‘26 proudly co-locates with APPT’26 in Brussels, Belgium. This year’s theme is Embrace Innovations. We invite experts from academia and industry to explore the future of intelligent systems. We highly welcome thought-provoking submissions on emerging technologies, including Multimodal Large Models , Embodied AI, and transformative architectures like Processing-in-Memory and Photonic Computing.

This year, we are launching the second 3rd International Workshop on Acceleration and Optimization of Multi-modal Computing (AOMC), which is Co-located with APPT 2026 at Brussels, Belgium, July 2026.
