</b><a data-auth="NotApplicable" class="x_OWAAutoLink" id="OWA5488cebf-38e4-c2d2-bb03-0f6ce8b0c84f" href="https://behaviors-icsa.github.io/">https://behaviors\u2011icsa.github.io/</a><br>
This workshop aims to explore architectures that bridge human and system behaviors. Topics include human\u2011centric architectures (Internet of Behaviors, smart cities, emotion\u2011aware systems, privacy/trust, AI\u2011supported adaptation), system behaviors (self\u2011adaptation,
dynamic reconfiguration, resource\u2011aware adaptation, digital twins), and co\u2011adaptive human\u2011system interactions. We invite original research and experience reports from SE, HCI, AI, Social Science, and other domains; full papers (up to 8 pages in IEEE double-column
format) and short position papers are welcome.</span></div>

This workshop provides a forum for exploring knowledge\u2011driven software architectures in the age of AI. Topics span architectural knowledge and decision\u2011making (design decisions, patterns, antipatterns, knowledge representation), knowledge\u2011centric software engineering
(rule\u2011/model\u2011driven architecting, knowledge graphs), AI and architecture (architectures for AI\u2011enabled systems, AI\u2011assisted architecting), lifecycle and evolution (refactoring, modernization, continuous architecting), quality attributes and trade\u2011offs, and
self\u2011adaptive and dynamic architectures. We solicit research papers (8 pages in IEEE double-column format, novel frameworks or empirical studies) and short papers (2-4 pages, position papers, tool demos, or experience reports).</span></div>
