SUMMARY:Third Visualizing Offline and Live Data with AI (VOLDA) workshop - 2026
DESCRIPTION:The Third Visualizing Offline and Live Data with AI (VOLDA) workshop will take place at The Cosener’s House\, Abingdon\, United Kingdom. The UK Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA) organises the workshop. \n\n\n\nVOLDA brings together the fusion community to explore advanced scientific visualisation\, digital twin environments\, and interactive data interpretation workflows\, alongside artificial intelligence and machine learning techniques that support insight generation from complex fusion experiments and simulations. \n\n\n\nOver 3 days\, the workshop will focus on practical experience\, lessons learned\, and innovative approaches for visualising\, analysing\, and interacting with large-scale fusion data from offline simulation outputs to live experimental streams. \n\n\n\nThe programme will include invited and contributed presentations\, structured discussions\, and opportunities for collaboration across research organisations and industry. \n\n\n\nAbstract submission\n\n\n\nWe invite authors to submit abstracts aligned with the conference topics of the Third Visualizing Offline and Live Data with AI (VOLDA) Workshop – 2026. \n\n\n\nAll submissions must come through the online submission system.  The programme committee will review submissions for relevance and scientific quality.  \n\n\n\nThe workshop offers two contribution categories: \n\n\n\n\nContributed Presentation – accepted submissions will be oral presentations within the technical programme.\n\n\n\nDiscussion Contributions – accepted submissions will be structured interactive sessions and roundtable discussions.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration\n\n\n\nParticipation in the workshop is by acceptance of abstract only.  \n\n\n\nWe will notify authors of the outcome of the review process. Once an abstract is accepted\, we will invite presenting authors and discussion participants to complete the registration process. The registration form will be available at a later date. We will provide instructions to accepted participants. \n\n\n\nParticipation is moderated\, and places are limited due to room capacity. \n\n\n\nWho can attend\n\n\n\nThe workshop is intended for researchers\, designers\, engineers\, and developers working in scientific visualisation\, fusion data interpretation\, digital twins\, interactive diagnostic systems\, real-time data platforms\, and AI and ML applications supporting insight generation in fusion research. \n\n\n\nWe particularly welcome participants developing or applying advanced visualisation workflows\, immersive and XR tools\, and interactive systems for exploring complex experimental and simulation data. \n\n\n\nDue to high demand and limited availability\, please register only if you are confident you can attend. \n\n\n\nKey dates\n\n\n\n\nWorkshop dates: 27 to 29 October 2026\n\n\n\nAbstract submission deadline: 30 April 2026\n\n\n\nNotification of Acceptance: 10 May 2026\n\n\n\n\nNote: We may close submissions early if capacity is reached. \n\n\n\n\n\nVisas and Electronic Travel Authorisation (ETA)\n\n\n\nCheck if you need a visa or ETA on the UK government website. We recommend applying at least 16 weeks before the event. \n\n\n\nIf you require an invitation letter\, please email the organising team with your full name\, organisation\, and nationality as stated in your passport. \n\n\n\nWe encourage International participants to submit their abstracts as early as possible to allow sufficient time for visa processing. \n\n\n\n\n\nEvent details\n\n\n\nDate\n\n\n\n\n\nLocation
