Scope


The annual Symposium on Principles of Programming Languages is a forum
for the discussion of fundamental principles and important innovations
in the design, definition, analysis, transformation, implementation and
verification of programming languages, programming systems, and
programming abstractions. Both experimental and theoretical papers on
principles and innovations are welcome, ranging from formal frameworks
to reports on practical experiences.


Submissions on a diversity of topics are sought, particularly ones that
identify new research directions. POPL 2006 is not limited to topics
discussed in previous symposia. Authors concerned about the
appropriateness of a topic may communicate by electronic mail with the
program chair prior to submission.

Authors should submit a 100-200 word abstract and a full paper by 23:00
Apia, Samoa Time on Monday, 18 July, 2005. Submissions should be no
more than 12 pages (including bibliography) in standard ACM SIGPLAN
conference format: two columns, nine-point font on a ten-point
baseline, with pages 20pc (3.33in) wide and 54pc (9in) tall, with a
column gutter of 2pc (0.33in). Detailed formatting guidelines are
available at http://www.acm.org/sigs/sigplan/authorInformation.htm,
along with formatting templates or style files for LaTeX. You don't
need to include categories, keywords, etc., though you are welcome to
do so. Also, note that the ACM copyright notice is not required of
submissions, only of accepted papers.


Authors wishing to supply additional material to the reviewers beyond
the 12-page limit can do so in clearly marked appendices, on the
understanding that reviewers are not required to read the appendices.
Submissions that do not meet these guidelines will not be considered.
The submission deadline and length limitations are firm.


Submissions will be carried out electronically via the Web, at the URL
given above. Papers must be submitted in either PDF format or as
PostScript documents that are interpretable by Ghostscript. They must
be printable on US Letter sized paper. Individuals for which this
requirement is a hardship should contact the program chair at least one
week before the deadline.


Submitted papers must adhere to SIGPLAN's republication policy. Each
paper should explain its contributions in both general and technical
terms, clearly identifying what has been accomplished, explaining why
it is significant, and comparing it with previous work. Authors should
strive to make the technical content of their papers understandable to
a broad audience.


Authors will be given a 2-day period (23:00 12 Sept. to 23:00 14 Sept.
2005 Samoa time) to read and respond to the reviews for their papers
before the PC meeting. Authors of submitted papers will receive more
details from the submission site.


Authors of accepted papers will be required to sign the ACM copyright
form. Proceedings will be published by ACM Press.


Student Attendees


Students who have a paper accepted for the conference are offered

they may apply for travel fellowships from the PAC fund.
