PiP 2017: Principles in Practice

Co-located with POPL 2017 <http://popl17.sigplan.org>

Saturday 21st January, 2017. Paris, France

Recent years have seen a number of research projects applying rigorous
semantics to the analysis or design of industrially significant real-world
languages and systems, in various contexts. Principles in Practice (PiP) is
an informal workshop bringing together researchers to discuss the issues
involved in engaging with the various industrial communities, in developing
and using semantics at scale, in handling pre-existing systems complexity,
and in the wide range of testing, analysis, and proof-based techniques that
can be applied. There is a programme of invited talks, with no proceedings.

This follows the previous PiP 2014
<http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/%7Epes20/pip2014.html> workshop.
