[Daniel Hillerström]

ICFP 2023 Student Research Competition

        Call for Submissions


ICFP 2023 invites students to participate in the Student Research
Competition in order to present their research and get feedback from
prominent members of the programming language research community.

The SRC consists of three rounds:

* Submission of an extended abstract
* Poster session at ICFP 2023
* Finalists' presentations at ICFP 2023

During the first round students submit an extended abstract detailing
their research to be reviewed by the program committee. Those students
whose abstracts get accepted advance to the poster session round which
will take place during ICFP 2023. Winners of the poster session
advance to next round, where they will give a 5-minute presentation
about their work on the ICFP main stage in front of a live audience.

### IMPORTANT DATES

* Submission Deadline: 25 May 2023 (Thursday)
* Author Notification: 15 June 2023 (Thursday)
* ICFP 2023 Conference in Seattle, Washington, USA:
     4 September 2023 (Monday) - 9 September 2023 (Saturday)

### SUBMISSION OF EXTENDED ABSTRACTS

* Submission Website: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://icfp23src.hotcrp.com__;!!IBzWLUs!VmtxbTN2rigExQ7lFKsWcmbobrr9loBWAqMq8fV3VyVUfFGB-TLOOwbMZmVcmUiFdrKQEa-dd8zkUlvyT8DbQUkfxzcEPG3rIeJGdJfBK1U$ 

Each submission (referred to as "abstract" below) should include the
student author's name and e-mail address; institutional affiliation;
research advisor's name; ACM student member number; category
(undergraduate or graduate); research title; and an extended abstract
addressing the following:

* Problem and Motivation: Clearly state the problem being addressed and
   explain the reasons for seeking a solution to this problem.

* Background and Related Work: Describe the specialized (but
   pertinent) background necessary to appreciate the work in the
   context of ICFP areas of interest. Include references to the
   literature where appropriate, and briefly explain where your work
   departs from that done by others.

* Approach and Uniqueness: Describe your approach in addressing the
   problem and clearly state how your approach is novel.

* Results and Contributions: Clearly show how the results of your work
   contribute to programming language design and implementation in
   particular and to computer science in general; explain the
   significance of those results.

* Submissions must be original research that is not already published
   at ICFP or another conference or journal. One of the goals of the
   SRC is to give students feedback on ongoing, unpublished
   work. Furthermore, the abstract must be authored solely by the
   student. If the work is collaborative with others and/or part of a
   larger group project, the abstract should make clear what the
   student's role was and should focus on that portion of the work.

* Formatting: Submissions must be in PDF format, printable in black
   and white on US Letter sized paper, and interpretable by common PDF
   tools. All submissions must adhere to the "ACM Small" template that
   is available (in both LaTeX and Word formats) from
   https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.acm.org/publications/authors/submissions__;!!IBzWLUs!VmtxbTN2rigExQ7lFKsWcmbobrr9loBWAqMq8fV3VyVUfFGB-TLOOwbMZmVcmUiFdrKQEa-dd8zkUlvyT8DbQUkfxzcEPG3rIeJGFjWuI_U$ . For authors
   using LaTeX, a lighter-weight package, including only the essential
   files, is available from
   https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://sigplan.org/Resources/Author/*acmart-format__;Iw!!IBzWLUs!VmtxbTN2rigExQ7lFKsWcmbobrr9loBWAqMq8fV3VyVUfFGB-TLOOwbMZmVcmUiFdrKQEa-dd8zkUlvyT8DbQUkfxzcEPG3rIeJG8wR2mFE$ . The submission
   must not exceed 3 pages in PDF format. Reference lists do not count
   towards the 3-page limit.
