Managed Languages Conference: PPPJ 2016 Call for Papers (Switzerland, Aug/Sep 16)

PPPJ '16
13th International Conference on Principles and Practices of Programming on
the Java Platform: Virtual Machines, Languages, and Tools


August 29 - September 2, 2016
Lugano, Switzerland


http://manlang16.inf.usi.ch/pppj


In-cooperation with ACM SIGPLAN, SIGSOFT, SIGAPP and SPEC RG


PPPJ '16 is a forum for researchers and practitioners to present and discuss
novel results on all aspects of managed languages and their runtime systems,
including virtual machines, tools, methods, frameworks, libraries, case
studies, and experience reports. Managed languages and runtime systems of
interest include, but are not limited to, Java, Scala, JavaScript, Python,
Ruby, C#, F#, Clojure, Groovy, Kotlin, R, Java VM, Dalvik VM and Android
Runtime (ART), LLVM, .NET CLR, RPython.

RPython, etc.)
- VM design and optimization
- VMs for mobile and embedded devices
- Real-time VMs
- Isolation and resource control


Languages
- Managed languages (Java, Scala, JavaScript, Python, Ruby C#, F#, Clojure,
Groovy, Kotlin, R, etc.)
- Domain-specific languages
- Language design and calculi
- Compilers
- Language interoperability
- Parallelism and concurrency
- Modular and aspect-oriented programming
- Model-driven development
- Frameworks and applications
- Teaching


Techniques and tools
- Static and dynamic program analysis
- Testing
- Verification
- Monitoring and debugging
- Security and information flow
- Workload characterization and performance evaluation




-------------------------------------------------------------------------------


SUBMISSIONS


PPPJ '16 accepts three types of paper submissions:
- Regular research paper: up to 12 pages
- Work-in-progress paper: up to 6 pages
- Industry and tool paper: up to 6 pages


The conference proceedings will be published as part of the ACM International
Conference Proceedings Series and will be disseminated through the ACM Digital
Library.


Research papers will be judged on their relevance, novelty, technical rigor,
and contribution to the state-of-the-art. For work-in-progress research
papers, more emphasis will be placed on novelty and the potential of the new
idea than on technical rigor and experimental results. Industry and tool
papers will be judged on their relevance, usefulness, and results. Suitability
for demonstration and availability will also be considered for tool papers.

LOCATION


PPPJ '16 will be part of the MANAGED LANGUAGES & RUNTIMES WEEK 2016, a premier
forum for presenting and discussing innovations and breakthroughs in the area
of programming languages and runtime systems.


Managed Languages & Runtimes Week '16 features three international academic
and industry venues for the first time:


- PPPJ '16 - 13th International Conference on Principles and Practices of
Programming on the Java Platform: Virtual Machines, Languages, and Tools.
- JTRES '16 - 14th International Workshop on Java Technologies for Real-time
and Embedded Systems - A workshop for researchers working on real-time and
embedded Java with the goal of identifying the challenging problems that still
need to be solved in order to assure the success of real-time Java as a
technology and reporting results and experience.
- VMM '16 - 3rd Virtual Machine Meetup - A venue for discussing the latest
research and developments in the area of managed language execution.


Managed Languages & Runtimes Week '16 will be hosted by the Faculty of
Informatics of University of Lugano (USI) from August 29 to September 2,
2016.
