The 2026 edition aims to reinforce inter-Maghreb collaboration while expanding research networks toward Europe and beyond. A particular emphasis will be placed on addressing the major socio-economic challenges of the energy and technological transitions—critical issues for the future of the region. Inspired by the dynamics of top-tier international conferences, CISTEM 2026 will spotlight transformative technologies shaping the future, from sustainable energy systems to advanced applications in electronics, automation, and industrial computing. The goal is to create a stimulating environment that fosters constructive dialogue, collaborative research, and the sharing of expertise among scholars, engineers, and professionals.
