The 17th Annual Non-Volatile Memories Workshop (NVMW 2026) provides a unique showcase for outstanding research on solid-state, non-volatile memories, including devices, error coding, architectures, systems, and applications. 

Topics of interest
The organizing committee solicits presentations on any topic related to non-volatile, solid-state memories.
Presentations may include new results or work that has already been published during the 18 months prior to the submission deadline.
The workshop also encourages submissions from industry experiences and innovative, work-in-progress ideas.
The industry track of NVMW 2026 will accept submissions with the goal of reflecting the trends and values of real memory hardware products, software systems, and new applications from the industry. We also encourage submissions with insightful discussions on the design philosophy and implementation strategies of real systems from industry perspectives.
The work-in-progress track will accept papers on new and crazy ideas in the domain of memory research. We will select the submissions based on their potential to inspire exciting discussions and thoughts, so it is okay if the work is not fully concluded at the time of submission.

In lieu of printed proceedings, we will post the slides and extended abstracts of the presentations online. Presentation of new work at the workshop does not preclude future publication.
Submissions to the workshops are 2-page extended abstracts.

Submission Deadline: December 12th, 2025.
