This year’s competition will consist of three rounds: * Round 1, Extended abstract: All students are encouraged to submit an extended abstract outlining their research. The submission should be up to three pages using “\documentclass[acmsmall,nonacm]{acmart}”. * Round 2, Poster at POPL: Based on the abstracts, a panel of judges will select the most promising entrants to participate in a poster session at POPL. In the poster session, students will be able to interact with POPL attendees and judges. After the poster session, three finalists in each category (graduate/undergraduate) will be selected to advance to the next round. * Round 3, Oral presentation at POPL: The last round will consist of a short oral live presentation at POPL to compete for the final awards in each category. This round will also select an overall winner who will advance to the ACM SRC Grand Finals. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Call for Submission POPL invites students to participate in the Student Research Competition in order to present their research and get feedback from prominent members of the programming language research community. Please submit your extended abstracts through HotCRP: https://popl25src.hotcrp.com Submissions must be original research that is not already published at POPL or another conference or journal. One of the goals of the SRC is to give students feedback on ongoing, unpublished work. Furthermore, the abstract must be authored solely by the student. If the work is collaborative with others and/or part of a larger group project, the abstract should make clear what the student’s role was and should focus on that portion of the work. The extended abstract should be up to three pages using ‘\documentclass[acmsmall,nonacm]{acmart}’. Reference lists do not count towards the three-page limit. You may write appendices after the three-page limit, but please be noted that the committee is not required to read them. This year, we will have two review cycles. For each submission, one of the following decisions will be made: * Accept: abstracts that proceed to the next round unconditionally. * Conditional Accept: abstracts that receive revision suggestions from the PC members. Authors will have 5 days to revise the abstract accordingly and then resubmit. The revised abstracts will then be re-evaluated, and either accepted or rejected. * Reject: abstracts that will not proceed to the next round.
