We invite submissions to the 19th International Conference on Graph Transformation (ICGT 2026), to be held in Rennes, France, as part of STAF 2026 (Software Technologies: Applications and Foundations) between 29th June and 3rd July.
Full call details: https://conf.researchr.org/track/icgt-2026/icgt-2026-icgt-research-papers
ICGT is the leading venue for research on graphs and graph transformation, encompassing theoretical foundations, tools, and applications. Graph-based formalisms are central to diverse domains including: software architectures, model driven engineering, network topologies, cyber-physical systems, quantum computing, exploring molecular structures, and graph databases.
We aim to broaden participation
ICGT is not only a theory conference, and we also welcome applications, tools, and case studies.
If your work uses graph rewriting technologies (e.g., graph databases, quantum compilers, AI/ML), ICGT is for you.
Topics Include
Theory: e.g. Models, verification, concurrency, logical aspects
Applications: e.g. Software engineering, quantum computing, AI/GNNs, graph databases, business processes
Tools: e.g. Languages, environments, tool support
Important Dates (AoE)
Abstracts: 16 Feb 2026
Papers: 23 Feb 2026
Notification: 6 Apr 2026
Camera-ready: 27 Apr 2026
Submission Categories
