### Workshops
**** Formal Techniques for Safety-Critical Systems (FTSCS) ****
The aim of this workshop is to bring together researchers and engineers
who are interested in the application of formal and semi-formal methods
to improve the quality of safety-critical computer systems. FTSCS
strives to promote research and development of formal methods and tools
for industrial applications, and is particularly interested in
industrial applications of formal methods. The workshop will provide a
platform for discussions and the exchange of innovative ideas, so
submissions on work in progress are encouraged.

**** Human Aspects of Types and Reasoning Assistants (HATRA) ****
This workshop brings together programming languages, software
engineering, security, and human-computer interaction researchers to
investigate methods for making languages that provide stronger safety
properties more effective for programmers and software engineers. HATRA
is interested in two different kinds of contributions. First, extended
abstracts that summarize an existing body of work that is relevant to
the workshop’s topic. Second, research papers that describe a new idea,
approach, or hypothesis in the space and are presented as an opportunity
for the authors to receive community feedback and for the community to
seek inspiration from others.

**** Live Programming (LIVE) ****
Programming is cognitively demanding, and too difficult. LIVE is a
workshop exploring new user interfaces that improve the immediacy,
usability, and learnability of programming. Whereas PL research
traditionally focuses on programs, LIVE focuses more on the activity of
programming. Our goal is to provide a supportive venue where early-stage
work receives constructive criticism. Whether graduate students or
tenured faculty, researchers need a forum to discuss new ideas and get
helpful feedback from their peers. Towards that end, we will allot about
ten minutes for discussion after every presentation.

**** Programming Abstractions and Interactive Tools, Notations, and
Environments (PAINT) ****
In this workshop, we want to discuss programming environments that
support users in working with and creating domain-specific abstractions
and notations. Topics of interest include the composition and
integration of domain-specific abstractions and tools inside
general-purpose programming languages and environments, the
implementation and evaluation of editing ergonomics and UX concerns, or
tool support for creating domain-specific abstractions and tools.
Environments that typically exhibit such properties include meta tools
or tool creation frameworks, language workbenches, block-based editors
and other visual programming approaches or projectional editors.

**** Reactive and Event-Based Languages and Systems (REBLS) ****
This workshop will gather researchers in reactive and event-based
languages and systems. The goal of the workshop is to exchange new
technical research results and to better define the field by coming up
with taxonomies and overviews of the existing work.
Details: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://2022.splashcon.org/home/rebls-2022__;!!IBzWLUs!QRJeNawGB5lt369uOkIWoIj5gINI4lb2W9mRk3QvLcVqsgl6juEVF-V5TocTn1mwf5FN-JUpzw5YdJFeTO-7WAvpu9yX2hvcEamVE5g$
**** Sources of Unsoundness in Verification (Unsound) ****
Participants to Unsound will be able to share their experience and
exploits on how different verification tools can either be broken or
expose confusing behavior, likely to be unexpected by users. We are
particularly interested in sources of unsoundness that are accidentally
shared by many different unrelated research lines, and to develop an
understanding on why this is the case. The workshop is meant to be
welcoming for both people with strong theoretical skills, as well as
people who just like hacking things. We do not expect fully polished
submissions and we will not have formal proceedings.
Details: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://2022.splashcon.org/home/unsound-2022__;!!IBzWLUs!QRJeNawGB5lt369uOkIWoIj5gINI4lb2W9mRk3QvLcVqsgl6juEVF-V5TocTn1mwf5FN-JUpzw5YdJFeTO-7WAvpu9yX2hvcCR36SKQ$
**** Virtual Machines and Language Implementations (VMIL) ****
The concept of Virtual Machines is pervasive in the design and
implementation of programming systems. Virtual Machines and the
languages they implement are crucial in the specification,
implementation and/or user-facing deployment of most programming
technologies. The VMIL workshop is a forum for researchers and
cutting-edge practitioners working on language virtual machines to
discuss the various related engineering and research issues.

Onward! is a premier multidisciplinary conference focused on everything
to do with programming and software: including processes, methods,
languages, communities and applications. Onward! is more radical, more
visionary and more open than other conferences to ideas that are
well-argued but not yet proven. We welcome different ways of thinking
about, approaching and reporting on programming language and software
engineering research. Onward! Papers is looking for grand visions and
new paradigms that could make a big difference in how we will one day
build software.
Submission deadline: 10th July, 2022 AOE.

Abstract submission deadline: 8th August, 2022.
Paper submission deadline: 12th August, 2022.
Details: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://2022.splashcon.org/home/gpce-2022__;!!IBzWLUs!QRJeNawGB5lt369uOkIWoIj5gINI4lb2W9mRk3QvLcVqsgl6juEVF-V5TocTn1mwf5FN-JUpzw5YdJFeTO-7WAvpu9yX2hvcKdTpfCA$
**** SLE ****
The ACM SIGPLAN International Conference on Software Language
Engineering is devoted to the principles of software languages: their
design, their implementation, and their evolution. Software language
engineering is the discipline of engineering languages and their tools
required for the creation of software. It abstracts from the differences
between programming languages, modelling languages, and other software
languages, and emphasizes the engineering facet of the creation of such
languages, that is, the establishment of the scientific methods and
practices that enable the best results. While SLE is certainly driven by
its metacircular character (software languages are engineered using
software languages), SLE is not self-satisfying: its scope extends to
the engineering of languages for all and everything.
2nd Round of abstract submission deadline: 8th August, 2022.
2nd Round of paper submission deadline: 12th August, 2022.
Details: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://2022.splashcon.org/home/sle-2022__;!!IBzWLUs!QRJeNawGB5lt369uOkIWoIj5gINI4lb2W9mRk3QvLcVqsgl6juEVF-V5TocTn1mwf5FN-JUpzw5YdJFeTO-7WAvpu9yX2hvcWLRxxsI$
**** Posters ****
The SPLASH Posters track provides an excellent forum for authors to
present their recent or ongoing projects in an interactive setting, and
receive feedback from the community. We invite submissions covering any
aspect of programming, systems, languages and applications. The goal of
the poster session is to encourage and facilitate small groups of
individuals interested in a technical area to gather and interact.
Submission deadline: 15th August, 2022.
Details: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://2022.splashcon.org/track/splash-2022-Posters__;!!IBzWLUs!QRJeNawGB5lt369uOkIWoIj5gINI4lb2W9mRk3QvLcVqsgl6juEVF-V5TocTn1mwf5FN-JUpzw5YdJFeTO-7WAvpu9yX2hvctCllRvI$
**** SPLASH-E ****
SPLASH-E is a symposium for software and languages (SE/PL) researchers
with activities and interests around computing education. Some build
pedagogically-oriented languages or tools; some think about pedagogic
challenges around SE/PL courses; some bring computing to non-CS
communities; some pursue human studies and educational research. At
SPLASH-E, we share our educational ideas and challenges centered in
software/languages, as well as our best ideas for advancing such work.
Submission deadline: 19th August, 2022.
Details: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://2022.splashcon.org/track/splash-2022-SPLASH-E__;!!IBzWLUs!QRJeNawGB5lt369uOkIWoIj5gINI4lb2W9mRk3QvLcVqsgl6juEVF-V5TocTn1mwf5FN-JUpzw5YdJFeTO-7WAvpu9yX2hvc515g5Y4$
**** Onward! Essays ****
Onward! Essays track is looking for clear and compelling pieces of
writing about topics important to the software community. An essay may
be an exploration of the topic and its impact, or a story about the
circumstances of its creation; it may present a personal view of what
is, explore a terrain, or lead the reader in an act of discovery; it may
be a philosophical digression or a deep analysis. The subject
area—software, programming, and programming languages—should be
interpreted broadly and can include the relationship of software to
human endeavors, or its philosophical, sociological, psychological,
historical, or anthropological underpinnings.
Submission deadline: 5th September, 2022.
