Fwd: Haskell program introspection tooling development.
by Csaba Hruska 21 Jul '21

21 Jul '21

Hello, I'm using the external STG interpreter <https://www.patreon.com/posts/external-stg-49857800> to introspect the runtime behaviour of Haskell programs. Lately I've added an initial call-graph construction feature that I plan to refine further. https://twitter.com/csaba_hruska/status/1417486380536582151 Is there anyone who has dynamic analysis related research ambitions and wants to study Haskell program runtime behaviour in detail? If so then it would be great to talk. Cheers, Csaba

REBLS 2021: Call for papers
by Louis Mandel 14 Jul '21

14 Jul '21

8th Workshop on Reactive and Event-based Languages and Systems (REBLS 2021) co-located with the SPLASH Conference hybrid Virtual and in person in Chicago, Illinois, USA Sun 17 - Fri 22 October 2021 Website: https://2021.splashcon.org/home/rebls-2021 IMPORTANT DATES Submission Deadline: 15 Aug 2021 (there will be no extension this year) Author Notification: 6 Sep 2021 Camera Ready Deadline: 13 Sep 2021 SPLASH Conference: 17 - 22 Oct 2021 INTRODUCTION Reactive programming and event-based programming are two closely related programming styles that are becoming more important with the ever increasing requirement for applications to run on the web or on mobile devices, and the advent of advanced High-Performance Computing (HPC) technology. A number of publications on middleware and language design -- so-called reactive and event-based languages and systems (REBLS) -- have already seen the light, but the field still raises several questions. For example, the interaction with mainstream language concepts is poorly understood, implementation technology is still lacking, and modularity mechanisms remain largely unexplored. Moreover, large applications are still to be developed, and, consequently, patterns and tools for developing large reactive applications are still in their infancy. This workshop will gather researchers in reactive and event-based languages and systems. The goal of the workshop is to exchange new technical research results and to better define the field by developing taxonomies and discussing overviews of the existing work. We welcome all submissions on reactive programming, functional reactive programming, and event- and aspect- oriented systems, including but not limited to: * Language design, implementation, runtime systems, program analysis, software metrics, patterns and benchmarks. * Formal models for reactive and event-based programming. * Study of the paradigm: interaction of reactive and event-based programming with existing language features such as object-oriented programming, pure functional programming, mutable state, concurrency. * Modularity and abstraction mechanisms in large systems. * Advanced event systems, event quantification, event composition, aspect-oriented programming for reactive applications. * Functional Reactive Programming (FRP), self-adjusting computation and incremental computing. * Synchronous languages, modeling and verification of real-time systems, safety-critical reactive and embedded systems. * Applications, case studies that show the efficacy of reactive programming. * Empirical studies that motivate further research in the field. * Patterns and best-practices. * Related fields, such as complex event processing, reactive data structures, view maintenance, constraint-based languages, and their integration with reactive programming. * Implementation technology, language runtimes, virtual machine support, compilers. * IDEs, Tools. The format of the workshop is that of a mini-conference where participants present their work. Because of the declarative nature of reactive programs, it is often hard to understand their semantics just by looking at the code. We therefore also encourage authors to use their slots for presenting their work based on live demos. SUBMISSIONS REBLS encourages submissions of two types of papers: * Full papers: papers that describe complete research results. These papers will be published in the ACM digital library. * In-progress papers: papers that have the potential of triggering an interesting discussion at the workshop or present new ideas that require further systematic investigation. These papers will not be published in the ACM digital library. Format: * Submissions should use the ACM SIGPLAN Conference acmart Format with the two-column, sigplan Subformat, 10 point font, using Biolinum as sans-serif font and Libertine as serif font. All submissions should be in PDF format. If you use LaTeX or Word, please use the ACM SIGPLAN acmart Templates. The page http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Author/#acmart-format contains instructions for authors, and a package that includes an example file acmart-sigplan.tex. * Authors are required to explicitly specify the type of paper in the submission (i.e., full paper, in-progress paper). * Full papers can be up to 12 pages in length, excluding references. In-progress papers can be up to 6 pages, excluding references. Instructions for the Authors: * Papers should be submitted through: https://rebls21.hotcrp.com/ * For fairness reasons, all submitted papers should conform to the formatting instructions. Submissions that violate these instructions will be summarily rejected. * Program Committee members are allowed to submit papers, but their papers will be held to a higher standard. * All submissions are expected to comply with the ACM Policies for Authorship that are detailed at https://www.acm.org/publications/authors/information-for-authors. * Each submission must adhere to SIGPLAN’s republication policy, as explained on the web at http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Policies/Republication.

ETAPS 2022 1st joint call for papers
by Tarmo Uustalu 09 Jul '21

09 Jul '21

Why choose ETAPS? - ETAPS is one of the world's leading fora for research on software science, with a history of more than 25 years. - ESOP, FoSSaCS, TACAS are CORE 2021 rank A conferences. - The proceedings of ETAPS appear in gold open access, with no article processing charge for the authors specifically. - ETAPS has low participation fees for all and for students in particular. New in 2022: - Like FASE for several years already, ESOP will also use double-blind review this time. - FASE has a new paper category of new ideas and emerging results (NIER) papers. - The pre-paper-acceptance artifact submission deadline for TACAS is now a little later than the paper submission deadline. - ESOP and FASE welcome voluntary submission of artifacts for evaluation after paper acceptance; the outcome will not change the paper acceptance decision. - Among the satellite events, there is a PhD student mentoring workshop. ****************************************************************** JOINT CALL FOR PAPERS 25th European Joint Conferences on Theory and Practice of Software ETAPS 2022 Munich, Germany, 2-7 April 2022 https://etaps.org/2022 ****************************************************************** -- ABOUT ETAPS -- ETAPS is the primary European forum for academic and industrial researchers working on topics relating to software science. ETAPS, established in 1998, is a confederation of four annual conferences, accompanied by satellite workshops. ETAPS 2022 is the twenty-fifth event in the series. -- MAIN CONFERENCES (4-7 April) -- * ESOP: European Symposium on Programming (PC chair: Ilya Sergey, Yale-NUS College and National University of Singapore, Singapore) * FASE: Fundamental Approaches to Software Engineering (PC chairs:Einar Broch Johnsen, University of Oslo, Norway, and Manuel Wimmer, Johannes Kepler Universität Linz, Austria) * FoSSaCS: Foundations of Software Science and Computation Structures (PC chairs: Patricia Bouyer, CNRS, LMF, France, and Lutz Schröder, FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg, Germany) * TACAS: Tools and Algorithms for the Construction and Analysis of Systems (PC chairs: Dana Fisman, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev, Israel, and Grigore Rosu, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, USA) TACAS '22 will host the 11th Competition on Software Verification (SV-COMP). -- INVITED SPEAKERS -- * Unifying speakers: Alexandra Silva (University College London, UK / Cornell University, USA) Tomáš Vojnar (Brno University of Technology, Czechia) * FoSSaCS invited speaker: Nathalie Bertrand (Inria Rennes, France) * TACAS invited speaker: TBA * Tutorial speakers: TBA -- IMPORTANT DATES * Paper submission: 14 October 2021 23:59 AoE * Pre-paper-acceptance artifact submission (TACAS): 4 November 2021 23:59 AoE * Rebuttal (ESOP, FoSSaCS and, partially, TACAS): 7 December 00:01 AoE - 9 December 2021 23:59 AoE * Paper notification: 23 December 2021 * Post-paper-acceptance artifact submission (ESOP, FASE, TACAS): 5 January 2022 23:59 AoE * Paper final versions: 26 January 2022 * Artifact notification: 16 February 2022 -- SUBMISSION INSTRUCTIONS -- The four main conferences of ETAPS 2022 solicit contributions of the following types. All page limits are given **excluding the bibliography**. * ESOP: regular research papers of max 25 pp * FASE: regular research papers and empirical evaluation papers of max 18 pp, new ideas and emerging results (NIER) papers of max 8 pp, tool demonstration papers of max 6 pp (+ mandatory appendix of max 6 pp), * FoSSaCS: regular research papers of max 18 pp * TACAS: regular research papers, case study papers and regular tool papers of max 16 pp, tool demonstration papers of max 6 pp For definitions of the different paper types and specific instructions, where they are present, see the webpages of the individual conferences. All accepted papers will appear in the proceedings and have presentations during the conference. A condition of submission is that, if the submission is accepted, one of the authors attends the conference to give the presentation. We plan ETAPS 2022 as a hybrid conference; remote attendance and presentation will be possible. Submitted papers must be in English presenting original research. They must be unpublished and not submitted for publication elsewhere. In particular, simultaneous submission of the same contribution to multiple ETAPS conferences is also forbidden. Submissions must follow the formatting guidelines of Springer's LNCS (use the llncs.cls class) and be submitted electronically in pdf through the Easychair author interface of the respective conference. Submissions not adhering to the specified format and length may be rejected immediately. ESOP and FASE will use **double-blind reviewing**. Authors are asked to omit their names and institutions; refer to prior work in the third person, just as prior work by others; not to include acknowledgements that might identify them. ESOP and FoSSaCS will use an **author rebuttal phase**. TACAS will use rebuttal for selected submissions (those in the gray zone). Artifact submission and evaluation Regular tool paper and tool demonstration paper submissions to TACAS must be accompanied by an artifact submitted shortly after the paper. The artifact will be evaluated and the outcome will be taken into account in the acceptance decision of the paper. For research paper and case study paper submissions, pre-paper-acceptance submission of an artifact is optional; if an artifact is submitted at this point, it will be handled like described above. Alternatively, authors of papers of these categories may submit an artifact for evaluation after the paper has been accepted. The outcome of the artifact evaluation will then not change the paper acceptance decision. ESOP and FASE will also have artifact evaluation, but participation in it is voluntary; the artifact submission deadline is after the paper notification deadline. The outcome will not alter the paper acceptance decision. For specific instructions regarding artifacts, see the webpages of the individual conferences. -- PUBLICATION The proceedings will be published in the Advanced Research in Computing and Software Science (ARCoSS) subline of Springer's LNCS series. The proceedings volumes will appear in gold open access, so the published versions of all papers will be available for everyone to download from the publisher's website freely, from the date of online publication, perpetually. The copyright of the papers will remain with the authors. -- BEST PAPER AWARDS The strongest papers of the four conferences will be nominated for the ETAPS best paper awards of EAPLS, EASST and EATCS. The ETAPS test of time award recognizes outstanding papers published at ETAPS more than 10 years in the past. -- SATELLITE EVENTS (2-3 April) -- A number of satellite workshops and other events will take place before the main conferences. In particular, there will be a PhD student mentoring workshop organized by Caterina Urban, Wolfgang Ahrendt and Gidon Ernst. -- CITY AND HOST INSTITUTION -- Munich, Germany, is the capital and most populous city of Bavaria. Nowadays, the city is a global center of art, science, technology, finance, publishing, culture, innovation, education, business, and tourism. It is home to Ludwig Maximilian's University (LMU) and Technische Universität München (TUM), many scientific institutions, and world-class technology and science museums such as Deutsches Museum and BMW Museum. Iconic places to visit in Munich include the Munich Residenz, Marienplatz, the Old Town Hall, the famous Glockenspiel on the New Town Hall, the Frauenkirche, the English Garden, the Olympic Park and Nymphenburg Palace. The conference will be hosted by Technische Universität München. -- ORGANIZERS -- General chair: Jan Křetínský (Technische Universität München, Germany) Workshops chair: Dirk Beyer (Ludwig-Maximilians Universität München, Germany)

CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS Second International Workshop on Artificial Intelligence for IT Operations collocated with The 19-th International Conference on Service Oriented Computing (ICSOC 2021) Dubai, UAE, November 22, 2021 >>> https://aiops2021.github.io/ <<< SUBMISSIONS ARE NOW OPEN at: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=aiops2021 The official Call for Papers can be found at: https://easychair.org/cfp/AIOPS2021 Submission deadline: September 30, 2021 Scope Large-scale IT systems, such as data centres, cloud computing environments, edge clouds, IoT and embedded environments, are the key enablers of digital transformation. Managing such systems puts an enormous burden on the operators in dealing with the abundance of data, oftentimes leading to severe economic implications. To mitigate this issue IT operators increasingly rely on tools from artificial intelligence for assistance in the operation of IT systems. Artificial Intelligence for IT Operations (AIOps) is an emerging field arising in the intersection between the research areas of machine learning, big data, streaming analytics, and the management of IT operations. The main goal is the analysis of system information of heterogeneous type (metrics, logs, customer input, etc) to support administrators by optimizing various objectives like prevention of SLA violation, early anomaly detection and auto-remediation, energy-efficient system operation, providing optimal QoE for customers, predictive maintenance and many more. In this field, a constantly growing interest can be observed, and thus, practical tools are developed from both the academy and industry sector. We envision that, with the advance of AIOps technologies, the IT industry will achieve significant progress and sustained and exponential growth. The main focus of this workshop is to bring together researchers from both academia and industry to present their experiences, results, and work in progress in this field. A major part of the workshop is to strengthen the community and unite it towards the efforts for solving the main challenges. Topics of interest are the following: * Early anomaly, fault and failure (AFF) detection and analysis * Software dependability * Self-healing, self-correction and auto-remediation * Self-adaptive time-series based models for prognostics and forecasting * AFF identification, localization, and isolation * Root cause analysis * Adaptive fault tolerance policies * Forecasting of hardware and process quality * Performance management * Planning under uncertainty * Predictive and prescriptive maintenance * Maintenance scheduling and on-demand maintenance planning * Alarm correlation * Log analysis * Fault-tolerant system control * Resiliency, reliability, and quality assurance * Autonomic process optimization * Energy-efficient cloud operation * Distributed resource management * Autonomous service provisioning * Visual analytics and interactive machine learning * Active and life-long learning * Design of experiment (DoE) and benchmarking * Fault injection and chaos engineering * Use-cases, testbeds, evaluation scenarios Publication: Post-workshop proceedings in Springer’s LNCS series. Venue: collocated with ICSOC 2021 conference in Dubai 22 November 2021.
