SEAMS 2027 — 22nd International Conference on Software Engineering for Adaptive and Self-Managing Systems
by SEAMS Conference Series (ACM/IEEE)
Engineering systems that adapt themselves — now LLM-based and agentic
About This Event
SEAMS 2027, the 22nd International Conference on Software Engineering for Adaptive and Self-Managing Systems, runs 26-27 April 2027 at The Convention Centre Dublin (CCD) in Dublin, Ireland, co-located with ICSE 2027. SEAMS applies software engineering methods, techniques, processes and tools to the construction of safe, performant and cost-effective self-adaptive and autonomous systems, and the 2027 research-track call is squarely about the agentic turn: its areas of interest include 'AI, machine learning, and foundation-model-enabled self-adaptation', 'LLM-based, agentic, and multi-agent self-adaptive systems' and 'adaptive prompt engineering and retrieval-augmented adaptation', alongside mixed-initiative systems, human-AI teaming and automatic synthesis techniques. The research track solicits full research papers, short papers and industry papers, with submissions due 23 October 2026, initial decisions 3 December 2026, a revision round closing 5 January 2027 and camera-ready copy due 29 January 2027.

Topics & Focus Areas
Who Should Attend
- ✓Platform and infrastructure architects
- ✓VPs of Engineering
- ✓AI platform and agent engineering leads
- ✓Site reliability and autonomics engineers
- ✓Software engineering researchers
- ✓Doctoral researchers in self-adaptive systems
Why Attend
Agentic systems are being bought as products and run as experiments, and SEAMS is the research community that already holds the vocabulary for software that reconfigures itself at runtime: monitoring and planning loops, guarantees, and what to do when adaptation misfires. A platform or architecture leader gets two days of peer-reviewed work on LLM-based and multi-agent self-adaptation, retrieval-augmented adaptation and human-AI teaming, plus an industry paper category, which is a considerably more sceptical view of autonomy than a vendor keynote offers. Co-location with ICSE 2027 means the trip also covers the wider software engineering programme.
Event Features
- ✓Research Track with submissions due 23 October 2026 and a revision round closing 5 January 2027
- ✓Three submission categories: full research papers, short papers and industry papers
- ✓CFP areas include AI, machine learning and foundation-model-enabled self-adaptation
- ✓CFP areas include LLM-based, agentic and multi-agent self-adaptive systems
- ✓CFP areas include adaptive prompt engineering and retrieval-augmented adaptation, mixed-initiative systems and human-AI teaming
- ✓Co-located with ICSE 2027 at The Convention Centre Dublin
What Makes This Unique
- ★A twenty-two-year-old research community for systems that reconfigure themselves at runtime — it had monitoring, analysis, planning and execution loops long before agent frameworks arrived.
- ★The 2027 call names LLM-based, agentic and multi-agent self-adaptation explicitly, so agents are treated as an engineering problem with guarantees rather than a demo.
- ★A dedicated industry paper category sits beside full and short research papers, and the track runs a revision round rather than a single accept/reject.
- ★Co-located with ICSE 2027 in Dublin, which puts the rest of the software engineering programme in the same building.
