The tutorial program is available.
Call for Tutorials
PLDI is a forum where researchers, developers, educators, and practitioners exchange information on the latest practical and experimental work in the design and implementation of programming languages. The tutorial program enhances the technical program by providing a day of half-day tutorials offered in parallel tracks. Tutorials for PLDI 2010 are solicited on any topic relevant to the PLDI audience. In particular, tutorials that strive to do one of the following have been particularly successful in the past:
- Describe an important piece of research infrastructure
- Educate the community on an emerging topic
For examples of past tutorials, see (among others) the websites of PLDI 2009, 2008, and 2007.
A total honorarium of $500 will be given to the team presenting each tutorial. If preferred, one tutorial presenter on each team can receive complimentary registration to the conference as an alternative.
