====================================================================== CALL FOR PAPERS FHPC 2017 The 6th ACM SIGPLAN Workshop on Functional High-Performance Computing Oxford, UK September 7, 2017 http://icfp17.sigplan.org/track/FHPC-2017-papers Co-located with the International Conference on Functional Programming (ICFP 2017) Submission Deadline: 26th of May 2017 (anywhere on earth) ====================================================================== The FHPC workshop aims at bringing together researchers exploring uses of functional (or more generally, declarative or high-level) programming technology in application domains where high performance is essential. The aim of the meeting is to enable sharing of results, experiences, and novel ideas about how high-level, declarative specifications of computationally challenging problems can serve as maintainable and portable code that approaches (or even exceeds) the performance of machine-oriented (low-level) imperative implementations. All aspects of performance critical programming and parallel programming are in-scope for the workshop, irrespective of hardware target. This includes both traditional large-scale scientific computing (HPC), as well as work targeting single node systems with SMPs, GPUs, FPGAs, or embedded processors. It is becoming apparent that radically new and well founded methodologies for programming such systems are required to address their inherent complexity and to reconcile execution performance with programming productivity. Experience reports are also welcome. Proceedings: ============ FHPC 2017 seeks to encourage a range of submissions, focusing on work in progress and facilitating early exchange of ideas and open discussion on innovative and/or emerging results. To this end submissions should take the form of short (maximum 6 page) papers. Accepted papers will be published by the ACM and will appear in the ACM Digital Library. This year FHPC will introduce an (optional) artifact-evaluation session, with the intent that selected artifacts will receive additional presentation time in a dedicated slot during the workshop. * Paper submissions due: 26th of May, 2017 (anywhere on earth) * Artifact submissions due: 9th of June, 2017 (optional) * Author notification: 23rd of June, 2017 * Final copy due: 15th of July, 2017 Submitted papers must be in portable document format (PDF), formatted according to the ACM SIGPLAN style guidelines (2 column, 9pt format). See http://www.sigplan.org/authorInformation.htm for more information and style files. Papers should be no longer than 6 pages. Contributions to FHPC 2017 should be submitted via Easychair, at the following URL: * https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=fhpc17 The FHPC workshops adhere to the ACM SIGPLAN policies regarding programme committee contributions and republication. Any paper submitted must adhere to ACM SIGPLAN's republication policy. PC member submissions are welcome, but will be reviewed to a higher standard. http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Policies/Review http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Policies/Republication ------ 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.

First call for talk proposals: Higher-Order Programming with Effects, HOPE 2017
by François Pottier 29 Mar '17

29 Mar '17

------------------------------------------------------------------------------ CALL FOR TALK PROPOSALS HOPE 2017 The 6th ACM SIGPLAN Workshop on Higher-Order Programming with Effects September 3, 2017 Oxford, United Kingdom (the day before ICFP 2017) http://icfp17.sigplan.org/track/hope-2017-papers ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The HOPE workshop series are intended to bring together researchers interested in the design, semantics, implementation, and verification of higher-order effectful programs. They are informal, consisting of invited talks, contributed talks on work in progress, and open-ended discussion sessions. They are dedicated to John Reynolds, whose work is an inspiration to us all. The 6th ACM SIGPLAN Workshop on Higher-Order Programming with Effects will take place on Sunday, September 3, 2017, that is, the day before ICFP 2017, in Oxford, United Kingdom. # Goals of the Workshop A recurring theme in many papers at ICFP, and in the research of many ICFP attendees, is the interaction of higher-order programming with various kinds of effects: storage effects, I/O, control effects, concurrency, etc. While effects are of critical importance in many applications, they also make code harder to build, maintain, and reason about. Higher-order languages (both functional and object-oriented) provide a variety of abstraction mechanisms to help "tame" or "encapsulate" effects (e.g. monads, ADTs, ownership types, typestate, first-class events, transactions, Hoare Type Theory, session types, substructural and region-based type systems), and a number of different semantic models and verification technologies have been developed in order to codify and exploit the benefits of this encapsulation (e.g. bisimulations, step-indexed Kripke logical relations, higher-order separation logic, game semantics, various modal logics). But there remain many open problems, and the field is highly active. The goal of the HOPE workshop is to bring researchers from a variety of different backgrounds and perspectives together to exchange new and exciting ideas concerning the design, semantics, implementation, and verification of higher-order effectful programs. We want HOPE to be as informal and interactive as possible. The program will thus involve a combination of invited talks, contributed talks about work in progress, and open-ended discussion sessions. There will be no published proceedings, but participants will be invited to submit working documents, talk slides, etc., to be made available online. # Call for Talk Proposals We solicit proposals for contributed talks. We recommend preparing proposals of at most 2 pages, in either plain text or PDF format. However, we will accept longer proposals or submissions to other conferences, under the understanding that PC members are only expected to read the first two pages of such longer submissions. When submitting talk proposals, authors should specify how long a talk the speaker wishes to give. By default, contributed talks will be 30 minutes long, but proposals for shorter or longer talks will also be considered. Speakers may also submit supplementary material (e.g. a full paper, talk slides) if they desire, which PC members are free (but not expected) to read. We are interested in talks on all topics related to the interaction of higher-order programming and computational effects. Talks about work in progress are particularly encouraged. If you have any questions about the relevance of a particular topic, please contact the PC chairs, François Pottier (francois.pottier(a)inria.fr) and Aleks Nanevski (aleks.nanevski(a)imdea.org) # Important Dates * Deadline for talk proposals: June 1st, 2017 (Thursday) * Notification of acceptance: July 1st, 2017 (Saturday) * Workshop: September 3, 2017 (Sunday) # Submission Link The submission website is https://icfp-hope17.hotcrp.com/ . # Workshop Organization Program Co-Chairs: François Pottier (Inria Paris) Aleks Nanevski (IMDEA Software Institute) Program Committee: Edwin Brady University of St Andrews Pierre-Évariste Dagand LIP6/CNRS Atsushi Igarashi Kyoto University Robert Krebbers Delft University of Technology Vivek Nigam Federal University of Paraíba Matija Pretnar University of Ljubljana Azalea Raad Imperial College London Aseem Rastogi Microsoft Research Filip Sieczkowski University of Wrocław Niki Vazou University of Maryland

CFP Special Sessions: DS-RT 2017 - Rome, Italy, October 18-20, 2017
by Robson De Grande 26 Mar '17

26 Mar '17

Dear Colleagues and Researchers, Apologies, if you have received multiple copies of this CFP. ********** CALL FOR PAPER ********** DS-RT 2017, the 21st IEEE/ACM International Symposium on Distributed Simulations and Real Time Applications, is running four special sessions this year: - Distributed Simulations of Distributed Systems - Agent-based Modeling and Simulation - Simulation of Urban Traffic Management and ITS - Augmented and Virtual Reality for Real-Time Applications Those special sessions cover important areas of the field of distributed simulations and real time applications, and many papers were accepted in previous editions of DS-RT on the same topics. See below for more detailed descriptions of those special sessions. ***** PAPER SUBMISSION AND REVIEW ***** Submitted manuscripts must be in standard IEEE two-column format that is used for IEEE conference proceedings and must not exceed "8 pages" (2-page extension allowed), including figures, tables and references. Standard IEEE templates for Microsoft Word or LaTeX formats can be found at: - http://www.ieee.org/conferences_events/conferences/publishing/templates.html A submission may present preliminary results, propose new research direction, provide insightful retrospective, or offer a provocative viewpoint on important topics related to the considered special session. Papers will be selected based on their likelihood of generating insightful technical discussions at the special session and influencing future research. Papers must be unpublished and must not be submitted for publication elsewhere. All papers will be reviewed by Technical Program Committee members and other experts active in the field to ensure high quality and relevance to the conference and the special session. At least one author of accepted papers must attend the conference and present its contribution. Accepted papers will appear in the conference proceedings to be published by IEEE Press. ***** IMPORTANT DATES ***** Full paper submission deadline: May 20th, 2017 Paper acceptance notification: June 20th, 2017 ***** FOR MORE INFORMATION ***** For questions about the paper submission and review process, please contact the session organisers - find all relevant information on the corresponding web pages below. ***** DESCRIPTION OF THE SPECIAL SESSIONS ***** * Special Session on Distributed Simulations of Distributed Systems Distributed simulation (DS) is a valuable tool for understanding and evaluating distributed systems. The current computing trend sees businesses and individuals moving toward a more centralized infrastructure, namely the cloud. On the one hand, as the computing infrastructure at data centers is highly complex and distributed, DS becomes essential for diagnosing and gaining insights of the system. On the other hand, the scale and nature of interaction between different components in the cloud present new challenges and push DS's state of the art. Another computing trend that has potential to drive DS is internet-of-things. Such complex systems consist of a large number of autonomous, heterogeneous devices communicating with one another in non-uniform manner. DS is valuable not only for discerning system properties but also for predicting the devices' emergent behavior. Finally, users in online social networks make up large distributed systems. Insights of user interaction and the network's collective behavior --- the study of which fits well into the realm of DS --- bring significant value to both the society and the business of social network providers. This special session seeks to bring together experts and practitioners in the domain of DS to discuss new opportunities and challenges for DS. We welcome research papers on both theoretical and empirical issues. Web page: http://ds-rt.com/2017/dsimdsys_2017.htm * Special Session on Agent-based Modeling and Simulation This special session focuses on general aspects and special properties for agent-based modeling and simulations that allows them to be applied on several scientific domains, such as sociology, physics, chemistry, biology, ecology, and economy. The session is intended to bring together researchers and practitioners, so they can present the current status of their work and discuss the challenges they face in developing solutions and applications for agent-based simulations. Consequently, the design of these simulations aims not only to social contexts but also to more technical domains, which involves highly complex interactive systems.

RV 2017 - 3rd Call for papers and tutorial proposals + RV-CuBES contributions
by Klaus Havelund 23 Mar '17

23 Mar '17

*RV 2017* *Call for Papers and Tutorials* The 17th International Conference on Runtime Verification September 13-16, Seattle, WA, USA http://rv2017.cs.manchester.ac.uk rv2017(a)easychair.org Runtime verification is concerned with the monitoring and analysis of the runtime behaviour of software and hardware systems. Runtime verification techniques are crucial for system correctness, reliability, and robustness; they provide an additional level of rigor and effectiveness compared to conventional testing, and are generally more practical than exhaustive formal verification. Runtime verification can be used prior to deployment, for testing, verification, and debugging purposes, and after deployment for ensuring reliability, safety, and security and for providing fault containment and recovery as well as online system repair. Topics of interest to the conference include, but are not limited to: - specification languages - monitor construction techniques - program instrumentation - logging, recording, and replay - combination of static and dynamic analysis - specification mining and machine learning over runtime traces - monitoring techniques for concurrent and distributed systems - runtime checking of privacy and security policies - statistical model checking - metrics and statistical information gathering - program/system execution visualization - fault localization, containment, recovery and repair - integrated vehicle health management (IVHM) Application areas of runtime verification include cyber-physical systems, safety/mission-critical systems, enterprise and systems software, autonomous and reactive control systems, health management and diagnosis systems, and system security and privacy. We welcome contributions exploring the combination of runtime verification techniques with machine learning and static analysis. Whilst these are highlight topics, papers falling into these categories will not be treated differently from other contributions. An overview of previous RV conferences and earlier workshops can be found at: http://www.runtime-verification.org. RV 2017 will be held September 13-16 in Seattle, WA, USA. RV 2017 will feature a tutorial day (September 13), and three conference days (September 14-16).

by SPLASH Publicity 23 Mar '17

23 Mar '17

ACM SIGPLAN SPLASH 2017 October 22-27, 2017 Vancouver, Canada http://2017.splashcon.org 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, and software engineering. We invite high quality submissions describing original and unpublished work. Combined Call for Contributions: * OOPSLA * Onward! Papers * Onward! Essays * Dynamic Languages Symposium (DLS) * Generative Programming: Concepts & Experiences (GPCE) * Software Language Engineering (SLE) * SPLASH-E * Posters * Doctoral Symposium * Student Research Competition ## OOPSLA Papers may target any stage of software development, including requirements, modeling, prototyping, design, implementation, generation, analysis, verification, testing, evaluation, maintenance, and reuse of software systems. Contributions may include the development of new tools (such as language front-ends, program analyses, and runtime systems), new techniques (such as methodologies, design processes, and code organization approaches), new principles (such as formalisms, proofs, models, and paradigms), and new evaluations (such as experiments, corpora analyses, user studies, and surveys). Abstracts due: Thu April 13, 2017 Submissions due: Mon April 17, 2017 http://2017.splashcon.org/track/splash-2017-OOPSLA ## Onward! 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 April 21, 2017 http://2017.splashcon.org/track/onward-2017/onward-2017-Onward-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 that 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 April 21, 2017 http://2017.splashcon.org/track/onward-2017/onward-2017-essays-2017 ## Dynamic Languages Symposium (DLS) >From Lisp, Snobol, and Smalltalk to Python, Racket, and Javascript, Dynamic Languages have been playing a fundamental role both in programming research and practice. DLS is the premier forum for researchers and practitioners to share research and experience on all aspects on Dynamic Languages. DLS invites high quality papers reporting original research and experience related to the design, implementation, and applications of dynamic languages. Abstracts due: Fri May 26, 2017 Submissions due: Fri June 2, 2017 http://www.dynamic-languages-symposium.org/dls-17/index.html ## Generative Programming: Concepts & Experiences (GPCE) The International Conference on Generative Programming: Concepts & Experience (GPCE) is a venue for researchers and practitioners interested in techniques and tools for code generation, language implementation, and product-line development. GPCE seeks conceptual, theoretical, empirical, and technical contributions to its topics of interest, which include but are not limited to (i) program transformation, staging, macro systems, preprocessors, program synthesis, and code-recommendation systems, (ii) domain-specific languages, language embedding, language design, and language workbenches, (iii) feature-oriented programming, domain engineering, and feature interactions, (iv) applications and properties of code generation, language implementation, and product-line development. Abstracts due: Sun June 25, 2017 Submissions due: Sun July 2, 2017 http://2017.splashcon.org/track/gpce-2017/gpce-2017-GPCE-2017 ## 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. Abstracts due: Fri June 2, 2017 Submissions due: Fri June 9, 2017 http://2017.splashcon.org/track/sle-2017/sle-2017-papers ## SPLASH-E SPLASH-E is a new (started in 2013) forum for software and languages (SE/PL) researchers with activities and interests around computing education. Some build pedagogically-oriented languages or tools; some think about pedagogic challenges around SE/PL courses; some bring computing to non-CS communities; some pursue human studies and educational research. At SPLASH-E, we share our educational ideas and challenges centered in software/languages, as well as our best ideas for advancing such work. Unlike general conferences on computing education, SPLASH-E strives to bring together researchers and those with educational interests that arise from software ideas or concerns. Submissions due: Thu June 29, 2017 http://2017.splashcon.org/track/splash-2017-SPLASH-E ## 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. It is held early in the conference, to promote continued discussion among interested parties. Submissions due: Sat July 15, 2017 http://2017.splashcon.org/track/splash-2017-Posters ## 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: Fri June 30, 2017 http://2017.splashcon.org/track/splash-2017-Doctoral-Symposium ## Student Research Competition The ACM Student Research Competition (SRC), sponsored by Microsoft Research, offers a unique forum for ACM student members at the undergraduate and graduate levels to present their original research at SPLASH before a panel of judges and conference attendees. The SRC gives visibility to not only up-and-coming young researchers, but also exposes them to the field of computer science research and its community. This competition also gives students an opportunity to discuss their research with experts in their field, get feedback, and to help them sharpen their communication and networking skills.
