The 27th International Conference on Computing in High Energy and Nuclear Physics (CHEP), organized by AGH University, Henryk Niewodniczanski Institute of Nuclear Physics – Polish Academy of Sciences and Jagiellonian University, took place in Krakow, from 19–25 October 2024. The conference hosted roughly 550 registered participants from 33 different countries and 166 institutions.
The CHEP conference series began in 1985, and has grown to become the largest of its kind, providing the unique opportunity for computing experts across particle and nuclear physics to come together and learn from each other. The focus of the CHEP conference evolves along with the ever-changing technologies and major scientific initiatives.
The scientific program for CHEP 24 featured engaging morning plenary sessions throughout the week, nine parallel session tracks, and a thought-provoking panel discussion on disruptive computing technologies such as Quantum Computing and LLMs: “Will They Bring Disruptive Changes to HEP Computing?” A public lecture was hosted to introduce High-Energy Physics computing challenges to the local audience. The plenary sessions featured 21 invited talks, while the parallel sessions hosted more than 350 short talks, sparking lively discussions. Additionally, more than 140 posters were showcased across four dedicated sessions.
