The 48th ACM SIGPLAN-SIGACT Symposium on Principles of Programming
Languages (POPL 2021) will be held online.

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 2021 are solicited on any topic relevant to the POPL
community. We are particularly encouraging submissions of introductory
tutorials that make the research presented at POPL more accessible to
the participants.

Tutorials will be held on *Monday January 18, 2021* (two days before the
main conference and the day before PLMW). The expected length of a
tutorial is 3 hours, including questions and discussion (Q&A).

Due to the pandemic and POPL being held online, the tutorials will be
online only. The presenter should divide the tutorials into smaller
parts, followed by a Q&A session after each such part to answer the
questions from the audience. If a tutorial is prerecorded, participants
will be given the opportunity to post questions; the presenter will
answer these questions during the live Q&A session. The Q&A session will
be recorded.
