[TYPES/announce] PhD position in Programming Language Tooling - Lund University, Sweden
[ The Types Forum (announcements only), http://lists.seas.upenn.edu/mailman/listinfo/types-announce ] We are offering one fully funded PhD position to a qualified candidate with an interest in programming languages (both textual and visual), program analysis, meta programming, and cloud solutions. The goal of the project is to develop general methods for constructing cloud tooling for textual and visual languages. The research will be based on reference attribute grammars, which is a high-level declarative formalism for specifying type analysis and other static analyses of languages, and for generating compilers and other tooling.

Of particular relevance to SLE are technologies, methods, experiments, and case studies on software languages from modelware, grammarware and ontologyware perspectives. POSTER TRACK On-line proceedings Submission deadline: July 10 For the poster track, we solicit short papers of length between 5 and 6 pages in topics of interest to the SLE community, and we encourage authors to report on early work and applications. Poster papers will be evaluated based on novelty and clearness of presentation. Submitted papers must not have been previously published or currently be submitted for publication elsewhere.

Within this context the Doctoral Symposium at SLE 2012 contributes towards these goals by providing a forum for both early and late-stage PhD students to present their research and get detailed feedback and advice from researchers both in and out of their particular research area. The main objectives of this event are: - to provide PhD students with an opportunity to write about and present their research - to provide PhD students with constructive feedback on their work from their peers and from established researchers in their own and in different SLE sub-communities - to build bridges for potential research collaboration - to foster integrated thinking about SLE challenges crossing the boundaries between sub-communities - to encourage discussion about research methodology Besides research topics as mentioned in the SLE conference positioning, we explicitly solicit papers that address - unusual cross-domain aspects of software languages, - practical application of software language engineering concepts in real world examples, commercial or non-commercial, or - usage and usability aspects of software languages for non-IT and non-research audience as well. Furthermore, we encourage PhD students to submit papers about research aspects of and connected to software language engineering, even if not explicitly mentioned in the positioning of SLE and doctoral symposium in order to start exchange of such research ideas in the community.

[TYPES/announce] 2nd CFP: SLE 2012 - International Conference on Software Language Engineering
[ The Types Forum (announcements only), http://lists.seas.upenn.edu/mailman/listinfo/types-announce ] Second CALL FOR PAPERS Fifth International Conference on Software Language Engineering (SLE 2012) Sept 25-28, 2012, Dresden, Germany (Co-located with GPCE 2012) General chair: Uwe Assmann, Dresden University of Technology, Germany Program co-chairs: Krzysztof Czarnecki, Waterloo University, Canada Görel Hedin, Lund University, Sweden http://planet-sl.org/sle2012 The 5th International Conference on Software Language Engineering (SLE 2012) is devoted to topics related to artificial languages in software engineering. SLE's foremost mission is to encourage and organize communication among communities that have traditionally looked at software languages from different and yet complementary perspectives. Thus, of particular relevance to SLE are technologies, methods, experiments, and case studies on software languages from modelware, grammarware and ontologyware perspectives. IMPORTANT DATES Abstract submission deadline : June 4, 2012 Article submission deadline : June 11, 2012 Notification to authors : August 3, 2012 Camera-ready papers for preproceedings : September 3, 2012 Camera-ready papers for postproceedings : October 28, 2012 TYPES OF SUBMISSIONS We solicit the following types of papers: - Research papers: These should report a substantial research contribution to SLE or successful application of SLE techniques or both. Full paper submissions must not exceed 20 pages (Springer LNCS style). - Industrial experience papers: These papers discuss practical applications of SLE technology with an emphasis on the advantages and disadvantages of the method, techniques, or tools used. These papers must not exceed 10 pages. - Tool demonstration papers: Because of SLE's ample interest in tools, we seek papers that present software tools related to the field of SLE. These papers will accompany a tool demonstration to be given at the conference. These papers must not exceed 10 pages. The selection criteria include the originality of the tool, its innovative aspects, the relevance of the tool to SLE, and the maturity of the tool. Submitted articles must not have been previously published or currently be submitted for publication elsewhere. PROCEEDINGS All submitted papers will be reviewed by at least three members of the program committee. As for previous instances of SLE, all accepted papers will be made available at the conference in the pre-proceedings and published in the post-proceedings of the conference, which will appear in Springer's Lecture Notes in Computer Science series. Authors will have the opportunity to revise their accepted paper for the pre- and post-proceedings. All papers must be formatted according to the Springer’s Lecture Notes in Computer Science style. SCOPE The term software language refers to artificial languages used in software development including general-purpose programming languages, domain-specific languages, modeling and meta-modeling languages, data models, and ontologies. Examples include general purpose modeling languages such as UML, but also domain-specific modeling languages for business process modeling, such as BPMN, or embedded systems, such as Simulink or Modelica, and specialized XML-based and OWL-based languages and vocabularies. The term software language also comprises APIs and collections of design patterns that define a language implicitly. Software language engineering is the application of systematic, disciplined, and quantifiable approaches to the development (design, implementation, testing, deployment), use, and maintenance (evolution, recovery, and retirement) of these languages. Of special interest are (1) formal descriptions of languages that are used to design or generate language-based tools and (2) methods and tools for managing such descriptions, including modularization, refactoring, refinement, composition, versioning, co-evolution, recovery, and analysis. EAPLS BEST PAPER AWARD The best reviewed papers submitted to SLE and GPCE will be candidates for the 2012 SLE/GPCE Best Paper Award given by EAPLS. Out of these candidates, an independent EAPLS committee will select the award winner. TOPICS OF INTEREST We solicit high-quality contributions in the area of SLE ranging from theoretical and conceptual contributions to tools, techniques, and frameworks that support the aforementioned lifecycle activities. The topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following: - Formalisms used in designing and specifying languages and tools that analyze language descriptions: Examples are formalisms for grammars, schemas, ontologies, and metamodels; tools that detect inconsistencies in metamodels or analyze grammars to build
