The 45th ACM SIGPLAN-SIGACT Symposium on Principles of Programming
Languages (POPL 2018) will be held in Los Angeles, USA.

POPL provides a forum for the discussion of fundamental principles
and important innovations in the design, definition, analysis,
transformation, implementation and verification of programming
languages, programming systems, and programming abstractions.

Tutorials for POPL 2018 are solicited on any topic relevant to the 
POPL community. In particular, tutorials describing emerging topics or 
novel tools have been especially successful in the past.

Tutorials will be held on Monday January 8, 2016 (two days before the 
main conference and the day before PLMW). The expected length of a tutorial 
is 3 hours and, depending on the schedule, there might be the option to 
repeat it in the morning and in the afternoon.
