========================================================================
The Meta’19 workshop aims to bring together researchers working
on metaprogramming and reflection, as well as users building
applications, language extensions and/or software tools using
them.
The challenges which metaprogramming faces are manifold. They
start with formal reasoning about reflective programs, continue
with performance and tooling, and reach into the empirical field
to understand how metaprogramming is used and how it affects
software maintainability.
While industry accepted metaprogramming on a wide scale with
Ruby, Scala, JavaScript, R and others, there is still a long road
ahead to bring the same level of convenience, tooling, and
understanding as for direct programming styles.
Contributions to the workshop are welcome on a wide range of
topics related to the design, implementation, and application of
metaprogramming techniques, as well as empirical studies and
formal methods for such systems and languages.
### Topics of Interest
The workshop is a venue for all approaches that embrace
metaprogramming, from static to dynamic techniques:
- reflection, meta-level architectures, staging, open language
runtimes applications to middleware, frameworks, and DSLs
- optimization techniques
- contract systems, or typing of reflective programs
- reflection and metaobject protocols to enable tooling
- case studies and evaluation of such techniques, e.g., to build
applications, language extensions, or tools
- empirical evaluation of metaprogramming solutions
- security in reflective systems and capability-based designs
- meta-level architectures and reflective middleware for modern
runtime platforms (e.g. IoT, cyber-physical systems,
mobile/cloud/grid computing, etc)
- surveys, conceptualization, taxonomization, and formalization
of existing approaches
### Workshop Format and Submissions
This workshop welcomes the presentation of new ideas and emerging
problems as well as mature work as part of a mini-conference
format. Furthermore, we plan interactive brainstorming and
demonstration sessions between the formal presentations to enable
an active exchange of ideas.
Papers submitted by the first deadline will be considered for
publication in the ACM DL, if not requested otherwise by the
authors. Thus, they will be part of SPLASH workshop proceedings.
For all papers, use of the SIGPLAN acmart style is mandatory:
http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Author/
Please use the provided double-column templates for Latex or Word.
technical paper: max. 8 pages, excluding references
position and work-in-progress paper: 1-4 pages, excluding references
technology demos or a posters: 1-page abstract
Demos, posters, position and work-in-progress papers can be
submitted on a second, later deadline to discuss the latest
results and current work, but will not be considered for
publication in the ACM DL.
For the submission, please use the submission system at:
https://meta19.hotcrp.com/
### Important Dates
26 Jul 2019 - Abstract Submission
2 Aug 2019 - Paper Submission (considered for ACM DL)
23 Aug 2019 - Notification
28 Aug 2019 - Demo, position or work-in-progress paper submission
