CASCON is the premier industrial and academic conference for advanced studies in computer science and software engineering sponsored by the IBM Canada Laboratory. Since 1991, CASCON has attracted software developers, researchers, innovators, technologists and decision-makers from academia, industry, and government, who come together to learn about technology trends, present papers, listen to keynote speakers, participate in workshops, and exhibit prototypes and solutions. The conference program features thought-provoking keynotes, original research papers, stimulating workshops, and an engaging technology expo. Conference proceedings are published in the ACM Digital Library (https://dl.acm.org/conference/cascon). We are excited to announce that this year CASCON will be co-located at the 1st IBM TechXchange Conference, a new IBM global event series specifically designed for technical communities and experts. The call for workshops and technical talks will follow in April.

Paper Types
CASCON 2023 calls for two types of research papers:
- Regular papers - Original research papers at most 10 pages long (including references).
- Short papers - Work in progress with some validation results, experience reports, new ideas and visionary papers based on supporting theory or evidence, and application papers at most 6 pages long (including references).
CASCON 2023 will not accept submissions that have been previously published, are in press, or have been submitted elsewhere. We encourage interdisciplinary research papers. Accepted papers will be included in the conference proceedings published in the ACM Digital Library.
One of the authors of the accepted papers must register and present the paper at the conference. Failure to attend and present the paper at the conference will result in withdrawal of the paper from the ACM proceeding.
