[logic-ml] PEPM 2017: Call for Posters

-- 東京大学大学院情報理工学系研究科 佐藤亮介 ryosuke@kb.is.s.u-tokyo.ac.jp ------------------------------------------------------------------- CALL FOR POSTERS Workshop on PARTIAL EVALUATION AND PROGRAM MANIPULATION (PEPM 2017) PEPM 2017 information: http://conf.researchr.org/home/PEPM-2017 Submissions: https://pepm17.hotcrp.com/ Paris, France, January 16th - 17th, 2017 (co-located with POPL 2017) PEPM is the premier forum for discussion of semantics-based program manipulation. The first ACM SIGPLAN PEPM symposium took place in 1991, and meetings have been held in affiliation with POPL every year since 2006. PEPM 2017 will be based on a broad interpretation of semantics-based program manipulation, reflecting the expanded scope of PEPM in recent years beyond the traditionally covered areas of partial evaluation and specialization. Posters ------- In order to maintain the dynamic and interactive nature of PEPM, we solicit submission of posters. Poster submissions are 2-page articles in ACM Proceedings style that present preliminary work (see "Submission guidelines" below for more details). If accepted, the work will be presented as part of an interactive poster session at PEPM. Scope ----- Topics of interest for PEPM 2017 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, embedded and resource-limited computation, and security. This list of categories is not exhaustive, and we encourage submissions describing applications of semantics-based program manipulation techniques in new domains. If you have a question as to whether a potential submission is within the scope of the workshop, please contact the programme chairs. Submission guidelines --------------------- * Posters should describe work relevant to the PEPM community, and must not exceed 2 pages in ACM Proceedings style. We invite poster submissions that present early work not yet ready for submission to a conference or journal, identify new research problems, showcase tools and technologies developed by the author(s), or describe student research projects. If accepted, the work will be presented as part of an interactive poster session at PEPM. At least one author of each accepted contribution must attend the workshop and present the work. Student participants with accepted poster 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 programme, see its web page. Publication ----------- Posters will appear along with accepted papers in formal proceedings published by ACM Press and in the ACM Digital Library. Keynote ------- Neil Jones (DIKU) will give the PEPM keynote talk, titled Compiling Untyped Lambda Calculus to Lower-level Code by Game Semantics and Partial Evaluation Submission ---------- Posters should be submitted electronically via HotCRP. https://pepm17.hotcrp.com/ Authors using LaTeX to prepare their submissions should use the new improved SIGPLAN proceedings style, and specifically the sigplanconf.cls 9pt template. Important Dates --------------- * Poster submission : Tuesday 8th November 2016 * Author notification : Friday 18th November 2016 * Camera ready : Monday 28th November 2016 * Workshop : Monday 16th - Tuesday 17th January 2017 The proceedings will be published 2 weeks pre-conference. AUTHORS TAKE NOTE: The official publication date is the date the proceedings are made available in the ACM Digital Library. This date may be up to two weeks prior to the first day of your conference. The official publication date affects the deadline for any patent filings related to published work. (For those rare conferences whose proceedings are published in the ACM Digital Library after the conference is over, the official publication date remains the first day of the conference.).
