******************************************************************************** | | | The 2nd International Workshop on Machine Learning Techniques | | for Programming Languages (ML4PL '18) | | | | July 18th 2018, Amsterdam, Netherlands | | Collocated with ECOOP & ISSTA | | | ******************************************************************************** A workshop on machine learning techniques applied to programming language-related research and development. This workshop puts an emphasis on identifying open problem rather than presenting solution, and encourages discussion amongst the participants. Attendance will be limited to ensure that meeting retains an interactive character. Workshop web-site: https://conf.researchr.org/track/ecoop-issta-2018/ML4PL-2018-papers Submission web-site: https://ml4pl18.hotcrp.com/ ********************************** SCOPE *********************************** Over the last years, we have seen a rapid growth in the use of machine-learning technologies in programming languages and systems. This growth is driven by the need to design programming languages to analyze, detect patterns, and make sense of Big Data, along with the increasing complexity of programming language tools, including analyzers and compilers, and computer architectures. The scale of complexity in available unstructured data and system tools has reached a stage where simple heuristics and solutions are no longer feasible or do not deliver adequate performance. At the same time, statistical and machine learning techniques have become mainstream. This workshop is a broad forum to bring together researchers with interests in the intersection of programming languages and system tools with machine learning. Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): * Program analysis + machine learning * Programming languages + machine learning * Compiler optimizations + machine learning * Computer architecture + machine learning * Probabilistic programming languages * Design space exploration Submissions should take the form of talk abstract or 2-page problem statements. Materials of accepted talks will be published in ACM DL. --------------- IMPORTANT DATES --------------- Submission deadline: Wednesday, May 18th, 2018, AOE Notification (tentative): Monday, June 1st, 2018 ML4PL Workshop: Wednesday, July 18th, 2018 ----------------- PROGRAM COMMITTEE ----------------- * Miltiadis Allamanis (Microsoft Research, Cambridge, United Kingdom) * Lasse Blaauwbroek (Czech Institute for Informatics Robotics and Cybernetics, Czech Republic) * Yoav Goldberg (Bar Ilan University, Israel) * Georgy Lukyanov (Newcastle University, United Kingdom) * Alex Polozov (Microsoft Research, United States) * Mark Santolucito (Yale University, United States) * Meital Zilberstein (Technion, Israel) ------------------------------ ORGANIZING COMMITTEE & CONTACT ------------------------------ * Hila Peleg (Technion, Israel) * Artem Pelenitsyn (Czech Technical University in Prague, Czech Republic) Please, address any questions to Artem (a.pelenitsyn@gmail.com)
