- About to ICISCE 2026-

The International Conference on Intelligent Ship and Control Engineering (ICISCE 2026) will be held grandly in Xiamen, a highland of marine economy and technological innovation along the southeast coast of China. This conference focuses on the deep integration and cutting-edge development of intelligent ship technology and advanced control engineering, committed to building a high-level, interdisciplinary international academic exchange platform, gathering experts, scholars, researchers, ship design engineers, classification society representatives, shipping enterprise technical supervisors, and industry innovators in the fields of ship and ocean engineering, automation control, artificial intelligence, navigation communication, electric propulsion, Internet of Things, and marine safety. The conference will conduct in-depth discussions on cutting-edge topics such as autonomous navigation and path planning algorithms for intelligent ships, ship shore collaborative communication and remote monitoring systems, AI based ship status monitoring and fault diagnosis, intelligent energy efficiency management and green shipping technology, control architecture for unmanned surface vehicles (USVs) and underwater vehicles (AUVs), ship power propulsion systems and comprehensive power management, application of digital twins in ship design and operation, intelligent collision avoidance and navigation safety decision support systems, ocean environment perception and multi-sensor fusion technology, intelligent shipyards and ship construction automation. Through various forms such as keynote speeches, thematic forums, paper presentations, technology exhibitions, and engineering practice case sharing, we aim to promote the transformation and upgrading of the shipbuilding industry towards intelligence, greenness, and self-reliance. ICISCE 2026 emphasizes the core concept of "intelligent ship control, precise control for long-term development, and green navigation", and is committed to serving the national maritime power, transportation power, and intelligent manufacturing development strategy, accelerating the transformation and industrialization process of intelligent shipping technology achievements. The high-quality papers accepted by the conference will be recommended for publication in international journals indexed by IEEE, SCI, EI, or Scopus to enhance academic influence.
