PLDI




LCTES

PLDI is a forum where researchers, developers, educators, and practitioners can exchange information on the latest practical and experimental work in the design and implementation of programming languages. The PLDI conference seeks original research papers that focus on practical issues in the design, development, implementation, and use of programming languages. Emphasis is placed on novel language designs, innovative and creative approaches to compile-time and run-time technology, and results from experimental studies of actual implementations.

Topics of Interest

Papers are solicited on, but not limited to, these topics:

  • language support for security and safety
  • languages and compilers for parallel computing
  • design and processing of domain-specific languages
  • effective implementation of advanced language features
  • program representations
  • program analysis
  • program optimizations and transformations
  • dynamic compilation and optimization techniques
  • storage management techniques
  • compilation for distributed, heterogeneous systems
  • techniques for embedded and mobile code
  • interactions between compilers and architectures
  • software development tools
  • techniques for effective compiler construction

Submission Guidelines

The deadline for submissions of technical papers has passed. Papers must be formatted according the ACM proceedings format and should be no longer than 10 pages in this format. This 10 pages includes everything (i.e., it is the total length of the paper). Templates for ACM format are available for Word Perfect, Microsoft Word, and Latex at http://www.acm.org/sigs/pubs/proceed/template.html. Submissions should be in PDF (preferably) or Postscript that is interpretable by Ghostscript and printable on US Letter and A4 sized paper.

Papers that exceed the length requirement or are late will be rejected by the program chair. Papers already being reviewed by another conference or workshop with published proceedings are not eligible; if a closely related paper has been submitted to a journal, the authors must notify the program chair.

Paper Evaluation

The program committee will evaluate the technical contribution of each submission as well as its general accessibility to the PLDI audience. Papers will be judged on significance, originality, relevance, correctness, and clarity. The paper must be organized so that it is easily understood by an audience with varied expertise. The paper should clearly identify what has been accomplished, why it is significant, and how it compares with previous work. Papers that introduce new ideas or approaches are especially encouraged.
