Artificial Intelligence in Multimodal Transport: From Data to Decisions

Dec 10 – 11, 2026
Universidad del Mar, Huatulco, Mexico

In an era marked by geopolitical uncertainty, climate urgency, and rapid technological transformation, the need for more efficient, resilient, and sustainable transport and logistics systems has never been greater. Disruptions in global supply chains and evolving mobility demands are reshaping transportation systems worldwide.

The integration of Artificial Intelligence, data-driven approaches, and simulation is opening new opportunities for understanding and managing complex, dynamic, and uncertain systems. From digital twins to optimization and decision-support tools, these approaches enable more informed and adaptive decision-making.

This year’s conference focuses on AI-enabled multimodal and intermodal transport systems that enhance connectivity, resilience, and sustainability. Emphasis is placed on intelligent transport networks capable of adapting to disruptions while improving operational efficiency and supporting equitable access.

Addressing these challenges requires an interdisciplinary approach, combining advances in operations research, simulation, and AI with infrastructure planning and policy development. Key barriers—such as fragmented governance, limited interoperability, and insufficient digital integration—highlight the need for stronger collaboration between academia, industry, and public institutions.

We invite researchers and practitioners to submit contributions that explore innovative methods and applications for next-generation transport and logistics systems, particularly those bridging data, simulation, and decision-making in real-world contexts.

Authors are welcome to submit their contributions to the following, but not limited to, areas such as::

Paper deadlines and requirements:

The congress encourages researchers and practitioners to submit their original contributions in the form of:

• Full paper, (max 8 pages); peer-reviewed; accepted for presentation; published in the Congress proceedings; considered for journal publication.
• or Extended Abstract of 1 page including the objective, methods and conclusions; however, upon acceptance, the authors are required to submit the full paper by the camera-ready deadline.

Instructions, information, submission forms, and procedures are available on the MULTILOG 2026 website. Each accepted contribution requires a paid registration.
