# SPLASH 2016


The ACM SIGPLAN conference on Systems, Programming, Languages and
Applications: Software for Humanity (SPLASH) embraces all aspects of software
construction, to make it the premier conference at the intersection of
programming, languages, systems, and software engineering. We invite high
quality submissions describing original and unpublished work.




## OOPSLA Research Papers


Papers that address any aspect of software development are welcome, including
requirements, modeling, prototyping, design, implementation, generation,
analysis, verification, testing, evaluation, maintenance, reuse, replacement,
and retirement of software systems. Papers may address these topics in a
variety of ways, including new tools (such as languages, program analyses, and
runtime systems), new techniques (such as methodologies, design processes,
code organization approaches, and management techniques), and new evaluations
(such as formalisms and proofs, corpora analyses, user studies, and surveys).


Submissions due: Wed 23 March, 2016

## Onward! Research Papers


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.


Submissions due: Fri 1 April, 2016
http://2016.splashcon.org/track/onward2016/onward-2016-papers




## Onward! Essays


Onward! Essays is looking for clear and compelling pieces of writing about
topics important to the software community. An essay can be an exploration of
a topic, its impact, or the circumstances of its creation; it can present a
personal view of what is, explore a terrain, or lead the reader in an act of
discovery; it can be a philosophical digression or a deep analysis. It can
describe a personal journey, perhaps by which the author reached an
understanding of such a topic. The subject area should be interpreted broadly
and can include the relationship of software to human endeavors, or its
philosophical, sociological, psychological, historical, or anthropological
underpinnings.


Submissions due: Fri 1 April, 2016
http://2016.splashcon.org/track/onward2016/onward2016-essays


## Workshops


The SPLASH Workshops track will host a variety of high-quality workshops,
allowing their participants to meet and discuss research questions with peers,
to mature new and exciting ideas, and to build up communities and start new
collaborations. SPLASH workshops complement the main tracks of the conference
and provide meetings in a smaller and more specialized setting. Workshops
cultivate new ideas and concepts for the future, optionally recorded in formal
proceedings.


Late Phase Submissions of Workshop Proposals due: Fri 4 Mar, 2016
http://2016.splashcon.org/track/splash2016-workshops




## Doctoral Symposium


The SPLASH Doctoral Symposium provides students with useful guidance for
completing their dissertation research and beginning their research careers.
The Symposium will provide an interactive forum for doctoral students who have
progressed far enough in their research to have a structured proposal, but
will not be defending their dissertation in the next 12 months.


Submissions due: Thu 30 Jun, 2016
http://2016.splashcon.org/track/splash-2016-ds




## Posters


The SPLASH Poster 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.


Poster submissions due: Fri 8 Jul, 2016
http://2016.splashcon.org/track/splash-2016-posters


## Dynamic Languages Symposium (DLS)


DLS is the premier forum for researchers and practitioners to share knowledge
and research on dynamic languages, their implementation, and applications. The
influence of dynamic languages -- from Lisp to Smalltalk to Python to
Javascript -- on real-world practice, and research, continues to grow. We
invite high quality papers reporting original research, innovative
contributions, or experience related to dynamic languages, their
implementation, and applications.


Submissions due: Fri 10 June, 2016
http://2016.splashcon.org/track/dls-2016/dls-2016-papers




## Software Language Engineering (SLE)


Software Language Engineering (SLE) is the application of systematic,
disciplined, and measurable approaches to the development, use, deployment,
and maintenance of software languages. The term "software language" is used
broadly, and includes: general-purpose programming languages; domain-specific
languages (e.g. BPMN, Simulink, Modelica); modeling and metamodeling languages
(e.g. SysML and UML); data models and ontologies (e.g. XML-based and OWL-based
languages and vocabularies). SLE solicits high-quality contributions in areas
ranging from theoretical and conceptual contributions to tools, techniques,
and frameworks in the domain of language engineering.


Submissions due: Fri 17 June, 2016 (abstracts); Fri 24 June, 2016 (papers)
http://2016.splashcon.org/track/sle-2016/sle-2016-papers


## Generative Programming: Concepts & Experiences (GPCE)


The International Conference on Generative Programming: Concepts & Experiences
(GPCE) is a venue for researchers and practitioners interested in techniques
that use program generation, domain-specific languages, and component
deployment to increase programmer productivity, improve software quality, and
shorten the time-to-market of software products. In addition to exploring
cutting-edge techniques of generative software, our goal is to foster further
cross-fertilization between the software engineering and the programming
languages research communities.


Submissions due: Fri 17 June, 2016 (abstracts); Fri 24 June, 2016 (papers)
http://2016.splashcon.org/track/gpce-2016/gpce-2016-papers
