International Conference on Current Trends in Theory and Practice of Computer Science — 2026

The SOFSEM Conference (International Conference on Current Trends in Theory and Practice of Computer Science) is a well-established annual meeting that bridges foundational computer science with practical innovation. It provides a collaborative setting for sharing new research, teaching approaches, and applications that connect diverse areas of computing.

Who Should Submit

Researchers are invited to submit work that advances theoretical computer science, software and systems design, data management, artificial intelligence, or human–computer interaction. SOFSEM welcomes both established academics and early-career scholars, emphasizing contributions that combine scientific depth with practical relevance. Tutorial and workshop proposals are also encouraged for those who want to share emerging methods or tools.

Who Should Attend

SOFSEM is ideal for computer scientists, engineers, educators, and graduate students seeking to explore trends across subfields of computing. Attendees benefit from a balance of technical talks, invited lectures, and informal discussions that inspire cross-disciplinary thinking. The conference atmosphere supports networking, collaboration, and mentorship in a close-knit international community.

Community and Atmosphere

Known for its approachable and collegial spirit, SOFSEM fosters genuine dialogue between researchers from theory, systems, and applied domains. Participants often describe it as a retreat-style gathering that combines rigorous scholarship with opportunities to reflect, connect, and inspire new ideas.
