[Haskell] PEPM 2016: Final Call for Papers
FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS Workshop on PARTIAL EVALUATION AND PROGRAM MANIPULATION (PEPM 2016) St. Petersburg, Florida, January 18 - 19, 2016 http://conf.researchr.org/track/POPL-2016/pepm-2016-main The 2016 PEPM workshop will be based on a broad interpretation of semantics-based program manipulation and continues efforts to expand the scope of PEPM beyond the traditionally covered areas of partial evaluation and specialization. Specifically, PEPM will include practical applications of program transformations such as refactoring tools, and practical implementation techniques such as rule-based transformation systems. In addition, the scope of PEPM covers manipulation and transformations of program and system representations such as structural and semantic models that occur in the context of model-driven development. In order to reach out to practitioners, a separate category of tool demonstration papers will be solicited. Topics of interest for PEPM’16 include, but are not limited to: * Program and model manipulation techniques such as: supercompilation, partial evaluation, fusion, on-the-fly program adaptation, active libraries, program inversion, slicing, symbolic execution, refactoring, decompilation, and obfuscation. * Program analysis techniques that are used to drive program/model manipulation such as: abstract interpretation, termination checking, binding-time analysis, constraint solving, type systems, automated testing and test case generation. * Techniques that treat programs/models as data objects including metaprogramming, generative programming, embedded domain-specific languages, program synthesis by sketching and inductive programming, staged computation, and model-driven program generation and transformation. * Application of the above techniques including case studies of program manipulation in real-world (industrial, open-source) projects and software development processes, descriptions of robust tools capable of effectively handling realistic applications, benchmarking. Examples of application domains include legacy program understanding and transformation, DSL implementations, visual languages and end-user programming, scientific computing, middleware frameworks and infrastructure needed for distributed and web-based applications, resource-limited computation, and security. To maintain the dynamic and interactive nature of PEPM, we will continue the category of `short papers’ for tool demonstrations and for presentations of exciting if not fully polished research, and of interesting academic, industrial and open-source applications that are new or unfamiliar. Student participants with accepted papers can apply for a SIGPLAN PAC grant to help cover travel expenses and other support. PAC also offers other support, such as for child-care expenses during the meeting or for travel costs for companions of SIGPLAN members with physical disabilities, as well as for travel from locations outside of North America and Europe. For details on the PAC program, see its web page. All accepted papers, short papers included, will appear in formal proceedings published by ACM Press. Accepted papers will be included in the ACM Digital Library. Selected papers from PEPM’16 will be published in a special issue of the journal Science of Computer Programming. PEPM has also established a Best Paper Award. The winner will be announced at the workshop. Submission Categories and Guidelines Regular Research Papers must not exceed 12 pages in ACM Proceedings style (including appendix). Tool demonstration papers and short papers must not exceed 6 pages in ACM Proceedings style (including appendix). At least one author of each accepted contribution must attend the workshop and present the work. In the case of tool demonstration papers, a live demonstration of the described tool is expected. Suggested topics, evaluation criteria, and writing guidelines for both research tool demonstration papers will be made available on the PEPM’16 web site. Papers should be submitted electronically via EasyChair. easychair.org/conferences/?conf=pepm2016 Authors using LaTeX to prepare their submissions should use the new improved SIGPLAN proceedings style. Specifically, use the sigplanconf.cls 9pt template. Important Dates * Abstract submission: Tue, September 8, 2015 * Paper submission: Sun, September 13, 2015 (FIRM) * Author notification: Tue, October 20, 2015 * Camera ready copies: Fri, November 20, 2015 * Workshop: Monday, January 18 - Tuesday, January 19, 2016 Note: The paper submission deadline is firm. The above schedule is tight: We have absolutely no time to wait for late submissions, and we will have no deadline extension. ___ Haskell mailing list Haskell@haskell.org http://mail.haskell.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/haskell
[Haskell] Final CFP: FLOPS 2016, International Symposium on Functional and Logic Programming
NEW: revised submission deadlines (Sep 21 for abstracts, Sep 25 for papers) FLOPS 2016: March 3-6, 2016, Kochi, Japan Final Call For Papers http://www.info.kochi-tech.ac.jp/FLOPS2016/ Writing down detailed computational steps is not the only way of programming. The alternative, being used increasingly in practice, is to start by writing down the desired properties of the result. The computational steps are then (semi-)automatically derived from these higher-level specifications. Examples of this declarative style include functional and logic programming, program transformation and re-writing, and extracting programs from proofs of their correctness. FLOPS aims to bring together practitioners, researchers and implementors of the declarative programming, to discuss mutually interesting results and common problems: theoretical advances, their implementations in language systems and tools, and applications of these systems in practice. The scope includes all aspects of the design, semantics, theory, applications, implementations, and teaching of declarative programming. FLOPS specifically aims to promote cross-fertilization between theory and practice and among different styles of declarative programming. Scope FLOPS solicits original papers in all areas of the declarative programming: * functional, logic, functional-logic programming, re-writing systems, formal methods and model checking, program transformations and program refinements, developing programs with the help of theorem provers or SAT/SMT solvers; * foundations, language design, implementation issues (compilation techniques, memory management, run-time systems), applications and case studies. FLOPS promotes cross-fertilization among different styles of declarative programming. Therefore, submissions must be written to be understandable by the wide audience of declarative programmers and researchers. Submission of system descriptions and declarative pearls are especially encouraged. Submissions should fall into one of the following categories: * Regular research papers: they should describe new results and will be judged on originality, correctness, and significance. * System descriptions: they should contain a link to a working system and will be judged on originality, usefulness, and design. * Declarative pearls: new and excellent declarative programs or theories with illustrative applications. System descriptions and declarative pearls must be explicitly marked as such in the title. Submissions must be unpublished and not submitted for publication elsewhere. Work that already appeared in unpublished or informally published workshops proceedings may be submitted. See also ACM SIGPLAN Republication Policy. The proceedings will be published by Springer International Publishing in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series, as a printed volume as well as online in the digital library SpringerLink. Post-proceedings: The authors of 4-7 best papers will be invited to submit the extended version of their FLOPS paper to a special issue of the journal Science of Computer Programming (SCP). Important dates Monday, September 21, 2015 (any time zone): Abstract Submission Friday, September 25, 2015 (any time zone): Submission deadline (FIRM) Monday, November 16, 2015: Author notification March 3-6, 2016:FLOPS Symposium March 7-9, 2016:PPL Workshop Invited Talks - Kazunori UEDA (Waseda University) The exciting time and hard-won lessons of the Fifth Generation Computer Project - Atze Dijkstra (Utrecht University) UHC: Coping with Compiler Complexity Submission Submissions must be written in English and can be up to 15 pages long including references, though pearls are typically shorter. The formatting has to conform to Springer's guidelines. Regular research papers should be supported by proofs and/or experimental results. In case of lack of space, this supporting information should be made accessible otherwise (e.g., a link to a Web page, or an appendix).
