Abstract This paper proposes a minimal API that enables stackful context switching **without** the need for a scheduler. The API is suitable to act as building-block for high-level constructs such as stackful coroutines as well as cooperative multitasking (aka user-land/green threads that incorporate a **scheduling** facility).

Abstract The C++ standard currently specifies that all pointers to an object become invalid at the end of its lifetime [basic.life]. Although this permits additional diagnostics and optimizations which might be of some value, it is not consistent with long-standing usage, especially for a range of concurrent and sequential algorithms that rely on loads, stores, equality comparisons, and even dereferencing

Abstract C++ currently provides two ways of customizing the creation of objects in new expressions. First, `operator new` can be provided as a static member function of a class, like `void* T::operator new`. If such a declaration is provided, an expression like `new T(...)` will use that allocation function. Otherwise, the global version of `operator new` can be replaced by users in a type-agnostic way, by

Abstract The Working Draft of C++26 includes data parallel types. It mostly provides operators which work on or with `std::simd` types, but it also includes overloads of useful functions from other parts of C++ (e.g., sin, cos, abs). In [P0543R3] a proposal was made to provide saturating operation support for some basic arithmetic operations and casts. In particular, `saturating_add`, `saturating_sub`, `sa

Abstract Node handles are an over-specified solution to the relatively simple problem of moving nodes between associative containers, which can be done with a more conservative interface similar to std::list::splice. There is a lack of consistency with std::list, where splicing and merging can be done but there is no node handle-based interface, yet lists are indeed node based, too. P00832 acknowledges the

Abstract The most convenient way to look up an element of a `map` -like container is to use the index operator, i.e., `theMap[key]` . This operator cannot be used, however, when 1) the container is `const` , 2) the mapped type is not default constructible, 3) the default-constructed value is inappropriate for the context, or 4) the container should not be modified. These limitations often force the user to

Abstract We propose `views::flat_map`, a range adaptor that applies a function returning a range for each element, then flattens the result. This pattern, commonly known as *flat mapping*, is widespread in functional programming and data processing. Providing it as a dedicated view improves readability and expressiveness, and also opens opportunities for optimization in lazy evaluation contexts.

Abstract There is one important constant in SIMD programming: `0,` `1,` `2,` `3,` `...`. In the standard library we have an algorithm called `iota` that can initialize a range with such values. For `simd` we want to have simple to spell constants that scale with the SIMD width. This paper proposes a simple facility that can be generalized.

Abstract Attributes are used to a great extent, and there is new attributes being added to the language somewhat regularly.

Abstract When `std::format` was proposed for standardization, floating-point formatting was defined in terms of `std::to_chars` to simplify specification.

This solves the same problems, but has additional benefits.

Abstract A wave of recent proposals targets parts of the standard library for `constexpr`-ification. Some of them have already been adopted in C++26, others are being considered for C++29. These papers are often perceived as straightforward, since they are only sprinkling `constexpr` around the standard library. However, in practice, these papers may involve subtle tradeofs for standard libraries and their

Abstract `std::simd` includes scalar overloads for a few operations where variants of a function or operator accept a scalar where a `simd::vec` value would otherwise be expected. Recent papers continue this theme, with better shifts [P3793R1] and funnel shifts [P4010R0] adding scalar-operand variants. This has inadvertently created an expectation that every new operation should provide scalar overloads to

Abstract The coroutine promise protocol shipped in C++20 not only banned `return_void` and `return_value` on the same promise type, but did so in an unusually restrictive manner [1]. Notably the aforementioned manner barred implementing the aforementioned mutual exclusion via mutually exclusive constraints.

Abstract `std::execution` can be thought of as the realization of the asynchronous analogue of a synchronous function [1][2]. The sender is the function itself (with all arguments selected and applied), the receiver is the channel by which the function communicates with its caller (in the synchronous realm by returning or throwing), and the operation state is the “stack” (i.e. a collection of variables wit

Abstract This paper proposes a range adaptor `views::unique` that filters out consecutive equivalent elements from a range, leaving only one element from each group of consecutive equivalent elements. This adaptor complements the existing `std::unique` algorithm by providing a composable, lazy, and allocation-free view for a common filtering operation.

Abstract This paper proposes two new range adaptors, `views::take_last` and `views::drop_last`, that respectively produce the last *N* elements of a range and all-but-the-last *N* elements of a range. They mirror the shape of the existing `views::take` / `views::drop` adaptors and fill an obvious gap in the standard range adaptor set.

Abstract [P0260](https://wg21.link/P0260) proposes concurent queue concepts as communication mechanism for concurrent systems. This communication is typically uni-directional, i.e. a specifc part of a system is either a producer and therefore only needs the pushing interface, or it is a consumer and only needs access to the pop interface.
