[TYPES/announce] Call for papers: 30th ACM SIGSOFT International Symposium on Software Testing and Analysis (ISSTA'21)

[Lisa Nguyen Quang Do]

===============================================================

             The 10th ACM SIGPLAN International Workshop

              on the State of the Art in Program Analysis (SOAP)

                                   Call for Papers


                                 June 2021 - Virtual

                     https://pldi21.sigplan.org/home/SOAP-2021

                              Co-located with PLDI 2021

===============================================================


Static and dynamic analysis techniques and tools for Java, and other
programming

languages, have received widespread attention for a long time. The
application

domains of these analyses range from core libraries to modern technologies
such

as web services and Android applications. Over time, various analysis
frameworks

have been developed to provide techniques for optimizing programs, ensuring
code quality, and assessing security and compliance.


SOAP 2021 aims to bring together the members of the program analysis
community

to share new developments and shape new innovations in program analysis. For

SOAP 2021, we invite contributions and inspirations from researchers and

practitioners working with program analysis. We are particularly interested
in exciting

analysis framework ideas, innovative designs, and analysis techniques,
including

preliminary results of work in progress. We will also focus on the state of
the practice

for program analysis by encouraging submissions by industrial participants,
including

tool demonstration submissions. The workshop agenda will continue its
tradition of

lively discussions on extensions of existing frameworks, development of new

analyses and tools, and how program analysis is used in real-world
scenarios.


Possible submissions include, but are not limited to:

- A report on a novel implementation of a program analysis, with a focus on
practical

details or optimization techniques for obtaining precision and performance.

- A new research tool, data, and other artifacts, that showcase early
implementations

of novel program analysis concepts, as well as mature prototypes.

- A description of a new analysis component, for example, front-ends or
abstract

domains.

- A report describing an innovative tool built on top of an existing
framework.

- A compelling use case for a feature that is not yet supported by existing
analysis tools,

with good examples and an informal design of the proposed feature.

- An idea paper proposing the integration of existing program analyses to
answer

interesting novel questions about programs, for example in IDEs.

- An experience report on the use of a program analysis framework.

- A description of a program analysis tool and screenshots of main parts of
the demo.


Submissions should be four to six-page papers and should be formatted
according to the

two-column ACM proceedings format. Each reference must list all authors of
the paper.

The citations should be in numerical style, e.g., [52].

Templates for ACM format are available for Microsoft Word and LaTeX at [1].
The preprint

template should be set to use 10pt font and ‘numbers’ to ensure numerical
style citations,

that is: \documentclass[10pt, numbers]{sigplanconf}.


Submissions should be made on EasyChair [2].
