CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
**************************************************************/

The ACM SIGPLAN conference on Systems, Programming, Languages and Applicati=
ons: Software for Humanity (SPLASH) embraces all aspects of software constr=
uction and delivery to make it the premier conference at the intersection o=
f programming, languages, and software engineering. SPLASH is now inviting =
calls for participation.

 the 21st Century

http://2014.splashcon.org/track/splash2014-keynotes


** OOPSLA Research Papers**
Papers that address any aspect of software development are welcome, includi=
ng requirements, modeling, prototyping, design, implementation, generation,=
 analysis, verification, testing, evaluation, maintenance, reuse, replaceme=
nt, and retirement of software systems. Papers may address these topics in =
a variety of ways, including new tools (such as languages, program analyses=
, and runtime systems), new techniques (such as methodologies, design proce=
sses, code organization approaches, and management techniques), and new eva=
luations (such as formalisms and proofs, corpora analyses, user studies, an=
d surveys).

http://2014.splashcon.org/track/oopsla2014


** Onward! Research Papers **
Onward! is a premier multidisciplinary conference focused on everything to =
do with programming and software: including processes, methods, languages, =
communities, and applications. Onward! is more radical, more visionary, and=
 more open than other conferences to ideas that are well-argued but not yet=
 proven. We welcome different ways of thinking about, approaching, and repo=
rting on programming language and software engineering research.

http://2014.splashcon.org/track/onward2014-papers


** Onward! Essays **
Onward! Essays is looking for clear and compelling pieces of writing about =
topics important to the software community. An essay can be an exploration =
of a topic, its impact, or the circumstances of its creation; it can presen=
t a personal view of what is, explore a terrain, or lead the reader in an a=
ct of discovery; it can be a philosophical digression or a deep analysis. I=
t can describe a personal journey, perhaps that by which the author reached=
 an understanding of such a topic. The subject area should be interpreted b=
roadly and can include the relationship of software to human endeavors, or =
its philosophical, sociological, psychological, historical, or anthropologi=
cal underpinnings.

http://2014.splashcon.org/track/onward2014-essays


** Dynamic Languages Symposium (DLS) **
DLS is the premier forum for researchers and practitioners to share knowled=
ge and research on dynamic languages, their implementation, and application=
s. The influence of dynamic languages =97 from Lisp to Smalltalk to Python =
to Javascript =97 on real-world practice, and research, continues to grow. =
We invite high quality papers reporting original research, innovative contr=
ibutions, or experience related to dynamic languages, their implementation,=
 and applications.

http://2014.splashcon.org/track/dls14-papers


** Wavefront **
The SPLASH Wavefront track is looking for presentations and technology talk=
s of interest to the software community, particularly to software professio=
nals working in companies large and small. Wavefront is a forum for present=
ing experience reports and tutorials about innovative tools, technologies, =
and software practices.

http://2014.splashcon.org/track/splash2014-wavefront


** Panels **
The Panels track offers exciting discussion about topics related to SPLASH.

http://2014.splashcon.org/track/splash2014-panels


** SPLASH-E **
The SPLASH-E track brings together researchers and educators to share educa=
tional results, ideas, and challenges centered in Software and Programming =
Languages. Submission formats vary, including papers, tool demos, lightning=
 talks, challenge-topics for discussion, and suggested themes for "unconfer=
ence" sessions.  Help us create an engaging forum for educational issues re=
lated to SPLASH!

http://2014.splashcon.org/track/splash2014-splash-e


** Artifacts **
The Artifact Evaluation process is a service provided by the community to h=
elp authors of accepted papers provide more substantial supplements to thei=
r papers so future researchers can more effectively build on and compare wi=
th previous work. The Artifact Evaluation Committee has been formed to asse=
ss how well paper authors prepare artifacts in support of such future resea=
rchers. Roughly, authors of papers who wish to participate are invited to s=
ubmit an artifact that supports the conclusions of the paper.

http://2014.splashcon.org/track/splash2014-artifacts


** Workshops **
The SPLASH Workshops track will host a variety of high-quality workshops (1=
4 in total), allowing their participants to meet and discuss research quest=
ions with peers, to mature new and exciting ideas, and to build up communit=
ies and start new collaborations. SPLASH workshops complement the main trac=
ks of the conference and provide meetings in a smaller and more specialized=
 setting. Workshops cultivate new ideas and concepts for the future, option=
ally recorded in formal proceedings.

http://2014.splashcon.org/track/splash2014-workshops


** Tutorials **
The SPLASH Tutorials track will consist of prestigious tutorials on current=
 topics in software, systems, and languages research. The scope of the tuto=
rials is the same as the conference itself: all aspects of software constru=
ction and delivery at the intersection of programming, languages, and softw=
are engineering. The tutorials in particular focus on the nexus between res=
earch and practice, including work that takes inspiration from or builds co=
nnections to areas not commonly considered at SPLASH. Tutorials should intr=
oduce researchers to current research in an area, or show important new too=
ls that can be used in research.

http://2014.splashcon.org/track/splash2014-tutorials


** Demos **
The SPLASH Demonstrations track is an excellent vehicle for sharing your la=
test work with an experienced and technically savvy audience. Live demonstr=
ations show the impact of software innovation. Demonstrations are not produ=
ct sales pitches, but rather an opportunity to highlight, explain, and pres=
ent interesting technical aspects of running applications in a dynamic and =
highly interactive setting. Presenters are encouraged to actively solicit f=
eedback from the audience, which should lead to very interesting and entert=
aining demonstration sessions.

http://2014.splashcon.org/track/splash2014-demos


** Posters **
The SPLASH Poster track provides an excellent forum for authors to present =
their recent or ongoing projects in an interactive setting, and receive fee=
dback from the community. We invite submissions covering any aspect of prog=
ramming, systems, languages and applications. The goal of the poster sessio=
n is to encourage and facilitate small groups of individuals interested in =
a technical area to gather and interact. It is held early in the conference=
, to promote continued discussion among interested parties. Posters can be =
independent presentations or associated with one of the other parts of SPLA=
SH.

http://2014.splashcon.org/track/splash2014-posters


** Doctoral Symposium **
The SPLASH Doctoral Symposium provides students with useful guidance for co=
mpleting their dissertation research and beginning their research careers. =
The Symposium will provide an interactive forum for doctoral students who h=
ave progressed far enough in their research to have a structured proposal, =
but will not be defending their dissertation in the next 12 months.

http://2014.splashcon.org/track/splash2014-ds


** Student Research Competition **
The ACM SIGPLAN Student Research Competition (ACM SRC) is an internationall=
y-recognized venue that enables undergraduate and graduate students to expe=
rience the research world, share their research results with other students=
 and SPLASH attendees. The competition has separate categories for undergra=
duate and graduate students and awards prizes to the top three students in =
each category. The ACM SIGPLAN Student Research Competition shares the Post=
er session=92s goal to facilitate interaction with researchers and industry=
 practitioners; providing both sides with the opportunity to learn of ongoi=
ng, current research.

http://2014.splashcon.org/track/splash2014-src

ion formats vary, including papers,
 tool demos, lightning talks, challenge-topics for discussion, and suggeste=

<span style=3D"font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">The Artifact Evalu=
ation process is a service provided by the community to help authors of acc=
epted papers provide more substantial supplements to their papers so future=
 researchers can more effectively
 build on and compare with previous work. The Artifact Evaluation Committee=
 has been formed to assess how well paper authors prepare artifacts in supp=
ort of such future researchers. Roughly, authors of papers who wish to part=
icipate are invited to submit an
 artifact that supports the conclusions of the paper.&nbsp;</span><br style=

ing their participants to meet and discuss research questions with peers, t=
o mature new and exciting ideas, and
 to build up communities and start new collaborations. SPLASH workshops com=
plement the main tracks of the conference and provide meetings in a smaller=
 and more specialized setting. Workshops cultivate new ideas and concepts f=

<span style=3D"font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">The SPLASH Tutoria=
ls track will consist of prestigious tutorials on current topics in softwar=
e, systems, and languages research. The scope of the tutorials is the same =
as the conference itself: all aspects
 of software construction and delivery at the intersection of programming, =
languages, and software engineering. The tutorials in particular focus on t=
he nexus between research and practice, including work that takes inspirati=
on from or builds connections to
 areas not commonly considered at SPLASH. Tutorials should introduce resear=
chers to current research in an area, or show important new tools that can =
be used in research.</span><br style=3D"font-family: Helvetica; font-size: =

<span style=3D"font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">The SPLASH Demonst=
rations track is an excellent vehicle for sharing your latest work with an =
experienced and technically savvy audience. Live demonstrations show the im=
pact of software innovation. Demonstrations
 are not product sales pitches, but rather an opportunity to highlight, exp=
lain, and present interesting technical aspects of running applications in =
a dynamic and highly interactive setting. Presenters are encouraged to acti=
vely solicit feedback from the audience,
 which should lead to very interesting and entertaining demonstration sessi=
ons.</span><br style=3D"font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px;">

track provides an excellent forum for authors to present their recent or on=
going projects in an interactive setting, and receive feedback from the com=
munity. We invite submissions covering
 any aspect of programming, systems, languages and applications. The goal o=
f the poster session is to encourage and facilitate small groups of individ=
uals interested in a technical area to gather and interact. It is held earl=
y in the conference, to promote
 continued discussion among interested parties. Posters can be independent =
presentations or associated with one of the other parts of SPLASH.&nbsp;</s=
