The Organizing Committee of the 6th IFAC Workshop on Cyber-Physical Human Systems invites proposals for invited sessions to be presented at the conference. Invited sessions provide an opportunity for the community to focus on and discuss emerging topics. Invited session topics are welcome on a broad range of areas of relevance to CPHS, including (but not limited to) the following topics:

• Modeling, analysis, and control of integrated CPHS; 

• Social and societal aspects of CPHS; 

• Security, privacy and ethics in CPHS; 

• Human behavior and teaming between humans and autonomy; 

• Safety-critical and resilient CPHS; 

• CPHS applications in healthcare, transportation, human-space technology, and smart infrastructure;

• Game theory and applications in CPHS.

Prospective organizers of invited sessions are encouraged to discuss their ideas with the Invited Sessions Chair, prior to submission. Proposals should include the following information:

• Title of the invited session

• Organizers of the invited session

• Brief session description (2-3 paragraphs), explaining the goal of the invited session and the overarching themes of the submitted papers

• Corresponding keywords

• A list of potential paper titles, contributing authors with affiliations, corresponding authors with email, and tentative short abstracts of the papers

Proposals should be submitted via Paperplaza. We recommended that invited session proposals have six submissions. The submissions can be regular papers and extended abstracts.

The submission deadline for the invited session proposals is May 6, 2026. Once the proposals are submitted, the system will provide an invited session code. The session organizers will then provide this code to the authors participating in the invited session. These authors will use the code when they submit their papers/abstracts by the regular paper submission deadline of May 20th, 2026.

Papers that are part of an invited session proposal will undergo the same peer review process as 2026 CPHS regular papers. If the invited session does not have enough papers accepted, then other papers may be added to the session. If the session proposal is not accepted or the session is cancelled due to a shortage of accepted papers, the accepted papers submitted to the invited session will be moved to regular sessions in related areas.

For any inquiries concerning the invited session, please contact the Invited Session Chair, Angela Fontan, at angfon@kth.se.
