About FOIS
============================
16th International Conference on Formal Ontology in Information Systems (FOIS 2026)
21–25 September 2026, Vitória, ES, Brazil – 9 September 2026, Online
Website: https://www.foisconference.org/
============================
FOIS is the flagship conference of the International Association for Ontology and its Applications (IAOA) a non-profit organization promoting interdisciplinary research and international collaboration in formal ontology.
FOIS is a meeting point for all researchers with an interest in formal ontology. Formal ontology is the systematic study of the types of entities and relations making up the domains of interest represented in modern information systems. The conference encourages submission of high quality, not previously published results on both theoretical issues and practical advancements. FOIS 2026 will have distinct tracks for foundational issues, ontology applications and methods, and domain ontologies.
FOIS aims to be a nexus of interdisciplinary research and communication for researchers from many domains engaging with formal ontology. Common application areas include conceptual modeling, database design, knowledge engineering and management, software engineering, organizational modeling, artificial intelligence, robotics, computational linguistics, the life sciences, bioinformatics and scientific research in general, geographic information science, information retrieval, library and information science, as well as the Semantic Web.
FOIS 2026 will be held both online and in Vitória, ES, Brazil, organized by the Federal University of Espírito Santo.
Best regards,
