The 26th annual conference on Astronomical Data Analysis Software and Systems ( http://adass.org ) will be held from 16-20 October 2016 at the Stazione Marittima Conference Centre, Trieste, Italy. The host of ADASS XXVI will be the Trieste Astronomical Observatory (OATs) of the Italian National Institute of Astrophysics (INAF). 

This annual conference, held in a different location each year, is a forum for scientists, engineers, developers and programmers working in areas related to algorithms, software and systems for the acquisition, reduction, analysis, and dissemination of astronomical data. 

The ADASS XXVI program will include invited talks, contributed papers, display sessions, tutorials, computer demonstrations, and special interest ("Birds of a Feather" or BoF) meetings. These activities aim to encourage communication between software specialists and scientists, and to stimulate further development of software and systems to meet the data science challenges of astronomy. 

Contributions related, but not limited, to the following key themes are welcome: 
* Reduction and Analysis Algorithms for Large Databases and Vice-versa 
* Management of Scientific and Data Analysis Projects 
* New Trends in HPC and Distributed Computing 
* Long-term Management of Data Archives 
* Data Models in Astrophysics 
* Python in Astronomy 
* Surveys for Transient Objects in the Era of Gravitational Wave Astronomy 

Confirmed invited speakers include: 
* Tom Aldcroft (CfA/SAO/CXC) 
* Christophe Arviset (ESA-ESAC) 
* Tiziana Ferrari (EGI) 
* Gerard Lemson (Johns Hopkins)
