ACCU 2021 Call for Papers -- ACCU

By Felix Petriconi | Oct 26, 2020 11:20 AM | Tags: None

The ACCU is now putting together its program, and they want you to speak on C++. The ACCU conference has strong C++ tracks, though it is not a C++-only conference. If you have something to share, check out their

Call for Papers

by the ACCU

About the conference:

The ACCU 2021 will be from 2021-03-10 to 2021-03-13, with a pre-conference workshops on 2021-03-09.

The ACCU 2021 will be an online event because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Historically, ACCU has a lot of C++ and C content, and is proud of that: ACCU is the foremost annual conference for people interested in C++ and C, at least in and around the UK. But it is not just a C++ and C conference, ACCU is about programming in whatever language people are using, with whatever tools and processes people are using: D, Chapel, Java, Kotlin, C#, F#, Groovy, Rust, Go, Python, Ruby, Lisp, to name just a few programming languages about which there have been sessions at ACCU conferences. Git, Mercurial, CMake, Meson, TDD, BDD, allthese tools and techniques have been the focus of sessions at ACCU. The ACCU Conference is looking for sessions that will be interesting to people who create software.
The ACCU Conference is put on by ACCU (https://accu.org), but is open to anyone who wishes to be there either as a presenter or an attender.

The Call for Papers lasts for about 3 weeks and will close on Friday 2020-11-13 23:59 GMT

From the article:

With this post I'd like to give you the details for the onsite event in Berlin in November 2020.

First, let me say that unless there is a local lockdown, this is going to happen. I've been in Berlin at the beginning of the week, and had a meeting with the hotel. So this is the up to date information. And I assume for some of you its something to look forward to, to enjoy a real conference with actual people in 2020. The tickets for Berlin are available, and these include access to the online event.

From the article:

During September I was thinking about this years closing keynote. It would have been fine to leave it open, but its also the case that 2020 gives us opportunities and so I thought about who could be giving this years closing keynote.

From the article:

This was my second time attending CppCon. The first time I attended was in 2019, when I gave my first CppCon presentation in two parts, Algorithm Intuition - although I personally recommend the C++Now 2019 version which is 30 minutes shorter.

CppCon 2020 Trip Report

by Shafik Yaghmour

From the article:

CppCon 2020 was online this year due to Covid-19. I was not sure what to expect from an online only conference. I had heard mildly positive feedback from recent online only conferences but this would be my first experience. For the most part the experience exceeded my expectations. There were were technical problems here and there but mostly it ran smoothly. It was fatiguing to watching videos for so long but since I was home I was able to stretch in between sessions and move around and that usually helped...
