                             Call for Papers

                MPLR 2020 - 17th International Conference
               on Managed Programming Languages & Runtimes

             November 4-6, 2020 in Manchester, United Kingdom

                   https://mplr2020.cs.manchester.ac.uk/
                           Follow us @MPLR_Conf
========================================================================

The 17th International Conference on Managed Programming Languages &
Runtimes (MPLR, formerly ManLang) is a premier forum for presenting and
discussing novel results in all aspects of managed programming languages
and runtime systems, which serve as building blocks for some of the most
important computing systems in use, ranging from small-scale (embedded and
real-time systems) to large-scale (cloud-computing and big-data platforms)
and anything in between (desktop, mobile, IoT, and wearable applications).

This year, MPLR will be held in Manchester, UK, as permitted considering
Health and safety concerns.

For up-to-date details, check out the conference website:
https://mplr2020.cs.manchester.ac.uk/ and follow us on Twitter @MPLR_Conf.

The areas of interest include but are not limited to:

  * Languages and Compilers
     - Managed languages (e.g., Java, Scala, JavaScript, Python, Ruby, 
C#, F#, Clojure, Groovy, Kotlin, R, Smalltalk, Racket, Rust, Go, etc.)
     - Domain-specific languages
     - Language design
     - Compilers and interpreters
     - Type systems and program logics
     - Language interoperability
     - Parallelism, distribution, and concurrency

  * Virtual Machines
     - Managed runtime systems (e.g., JVM, Android Runtime (ART), V8, 
LLVM, .NET CLR, RPython, GraalVM, etc.)
     - VM design and optimization
     - VMs for mobile and embedded devices
     - VMs for real-time applications
     - Memory management and garbage collection
     - Hardware/software co-design

  * Techniques, Tools, and Applications
     - Static and dynamic program analysis
     - Testing and debugging
     - Refactoring
     - Program understanding
     - Program synthesis
     - Security and privacy
     - Performance analysis and monitoring
     - Compiler and program verification


Submission Categories
---------------------

MPLR accepts four types of submissions:

  1. Regular research papers
       describing novel contributions involving managed language platforms.
       Research papers will be evaluated based on their relevance,
       novelty, technical rigor, and contribution to the state-of-the-art.

    Format: up to 12 pages, excluding bibliography and appendix

  2. Work-in-progress research papers
       describing promising new ideas, with perhaps less maturity than full
       Papers.
       Work-in-progress papers will be  evaluated with an emphasis on 
novelty
       and the potential of the new ideas instead of technical rigor and
       experimental results.

    Format: up to 6 pages, excluding bibliography and appendix

  3. Industry and tool papers
       presenting technical challenges and solutions for managed language
       platforms in the context of deployed applications and systems.
       Industry and tool papers will be evaluated on their relevance,
       usefulness, and results. Suitability for demonstration and 
availability
       will also be considered for tool papers.

     Format: up to 6 pages, excluding bibliography and appendix

  4. Posters
       They will be evaluated similarly to work-in-progress papers.
       Posters can accompany any submission as a way to provide additional
       demonstration and discussion opportunities.

     Format: poster and 1-page abstract

MPLR 2020 submissions must conform to the ACM Policy on Prior Publication
and Simultaneous Submissions and to the SIGPLAN Republication Policy.
See http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Policies/Republication/


Author Instructions
-------------------

Submissions need to use the ACM `acmart` format with the `sigconf` style:
https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template

If you are using LaTeX, submissions need to use the 'acmart' document 
class with the 'sigconf' option. For reviewing, please include page 
numbers in your submission
using the LaTeX command `\settopmatter{printfolios=true}`.
The standard settings of a 9 point font size and the
Libertine/Biolinum font family are to be kept.

All submissions need to be in PDF format.

MPLR uses single-blind reviewing, i.e., author names are generally 
included in submissions.

Please also ensure that your submission is legible when printed on a black
and white printer. In particular, please check that colors remain distinct
and font sizes are legible.

Submission Site: https://mplr2020.cs.manchester.ac.uk/submissions/


Important Dates
---------------

Submission Deadline:     12 August 2020
Author Notification:     14 September 2020
Camera Ready:            05 October 2020
Conference Dates:     04-06 November 2020


All deadlines are 23:59 AoE (UTC-12h).

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.
The official publication date affects the deadline for any patent
filings related to published work.



COVID-19
--------

Given the uncertainties of the current situation, we want to assure you that
MPRL is going to happen. To increase the likelihood of having a physical 
conference, we are planning it for November.

If this won’t be possible, we are preparing a virtual MPLR, learning 
from the
conferences taking place right now and over the summer.

In either case, the submission and reviewing process will happen as outlined
to ensure timely feedback and continuity for our research work.
