The call for submission for the Scientific Computing Track at CppCon 2024 is now open!
Recent additions to the C++ standard library, such as mdspan or the basic linear algebra algorithms, have significantly enhanced C++’s capabilities for scientific computing. The Scientific Computing track aims to showcase these advancements and foster the exchange of knowledge between C++ scientific programmers and the general C++ community.
We invite submissions on a broad range of topics, including:
We welcome submissions from both seasoned researchers and those new to the CppCon stage. If your work pushes the boundaries of scientific computing with modern C++, share your knowledge and inspire others!
Submissions should be made through the CppCon website. Please remember to indicate your interest in being included in the Scientific Computing in the Comments section of the submission form. The deadline is May 19, 2024.

Just register for the conference and book a room in your name at the Gaylord Rockies. See the registration page for details.
Registration details are available on our registration page, but the high points are:
Substantial savings are available for Early Bird registrations through June 21st.
Visa application support for non-US attendees is available.
As always, we offer support for academics and employees of non-profits and, thanks to the support of the C++ Alliance, child care.
The CppCon Tooling Track is open for submissions!
Because C++ includes much more than the language itself, CppCon is excited to offer a Tooling Track at CppCon 2024! The Tooling Track is an explicit place to make room for talks about C++ tools and the C++ ecosystem.
Why give tooling talks? The C++ community wants and needs them! Users want to hear the best and latest about a wide range of tooling-related topics, including:
What should the talks be about? More or less, if it’s a talk for C++ engineers but not about software theory or the C++ language itself, it’s probably a talk about the C++ ecosystem, and therefore is welcome in the CppCon Tooling Track.
Who should submit? You! Previous talks from the perspectives of thoughtful users have been very well-reviewed and accepted in the past.
Of course, the Tooling Track is a place for industry experts and maintainers of widely adopted C++ tools as well. It is an excellent way for C++ tool vendors and advocates to raise awareness for the projects they are excited to share. CppCon is a great opportunity to get out from behind the ticket trackers and meet face-to-face with current and potential end users!
If you would like to submit a talk to the CppCon 2024 Tooling Track, follow the instructions at the wider CppCon 2024 Call for Submissions and be sure to mark Tooling as a target track.
If you would like to know more about the CppCon talk submission process or if you would like helpful tips for submitters, see the Main Program Submissions page. Also feel free to email tooling_track@cppcon.org or submission-advice@cppcon.org with any questions or concerns you may have.
If you are interested in helping organize the CppCon Tooling Track, please contact tooling_track@cppcon.org.
CppCon is the annual, week-long (September 15th-20th, 2024) face-to-face gathering for the entire C++ community. The conference Main Program consists of five days of several concurrent tracks of sixty-minute sessions.
This conference is organized by the C++ Community for the C++ Community. We want the whole community to be represented. We especially encourage those who identify as coming from an underrepresented community to apply to present and to be present. Presenting a talk is not limited to previous presenters or previous attendees and first-time speakers are very welcome to submit.
This year’s edition of CppCon will be onsite at the Gaylord Rockies in Aurora, Colorado, USA.
Have you learned something interesting about C++, maybe a new technique possible in C++17/20/23? Or perhaps you have implemented something cool, maybe a new C++ library? Or perhaps have an idea for a future language or library feature that you want to advocate for? If so, consider sharing it with other C++ enthusiasts by giving a Main Program talk at CppCon 2024.
While CppCon is a conference about C++, talks about other programming languages are in scope for CppCon 2024 as long as they are of interest to C++ developers and tied to C++ evolution and are not primarily talks about rewriting entire C++ codebases in something other than C++. For example, a talk on How to migrate your C++ code to Haskell is off-topic and will not be considered, but a talk on What C++ Programmers Can Learn from Swift, or What Rust Procedural Macros Might Look Like in C++, or Results of Hylo/Carbon/Circle Experiments That Could Be Incorporated Into ISO C++ Evolution are on-topic and will be considered.
The submission deadline is May 19th, with decisions sent by June 23st.
To facilitate a double-blind review process, please avoid statements in your title, abstract, and outline that remove all uncertainty about who you are. See examples on the Submissions page.
We plan to have all of the same tracks as last year (Back to Basics, Software Design, Tooling, Embedded, Robotics, and Scientific Computing). In addition, we are introducing a new GameDev track this year. If you plan to submit to one or more of these tracks, please indicate in your submission which track(s) you’d expect your talk to fit into by ticking the appropriate checkbox. Of course, you are also welcome to submit a talk to the general program that does not fit into any of these tracks. If you have new ideas for tracks or special interest areas to better serve the C++ community, please get in touch with the program committee directly with your thoughts.
For talk topic ideas, possible formats, submission instructions and valuable advice on how to make the best possible submission, see the Submissions page.
Also, if you are an author, our Call for Authors for CppCon 2024 has already been posted here. This is a great opportunity to bring more attention to your book and interact with the C++ community.
Note: Calls for Lightning Talks and Open Content sessions will be made later this summer. The deadline for these is the conference itself.

In the past year there has been great interest in C++ “evolution” or “successor” languages. These are an important part of today’s C++ community, and so CppCon 2022 had well-received talks about Val and other such experiments. These talks are in scope for CppCon 2023, as long as they are of interest to C++ developers and tied to C++ evolution and are not primarily talks about rewriting entire C++ codebases in something other than C++. For example, a talk on How to migrate your C++ code to Haskell is off-topic and will not be considered, but a talk on What C++ Programmers Can Learn from Swift, or What Rust Procedural Macros Might Look Like in C++, or Results of Val/Carbon/Circle Experiments That Could Be Incorporated Into ISO C++ Evolution are on-topic and will be considered.

We plan to have most (if not all) of the same tracks as last year, and we would like to add a few more. Each track will put out a call for submissions as we confirm their participation. If you plan to submit to a track, please indicate in your submission which track(s) you’d expect your talk to fit into. If you have new ideas for tracks or special interest areas to better serve the C++ community, please get in touch with the program committee directly with your thoughts.
