SAPLING Meetings
----------------

SAPLING meetings allow programming language academics, researchers, industry practitioners and students to present and discuss their research and experiences in an informal setting.

Previous meetings were held at Macquarie University (2017, 2013, 2007), Australian National University (2016, 2012, 2007), The University of Sydney (2015, 2009), Oracle Labs, Brisbane (2014), University of Technology, Sydney (2011), University of New South Wales (2010, 2006), and Victoria University of Wellington (2018).

The 2019 SAPLING meeting will be held at the University of Sydney.

SAPLING talks are generally of 20-25 minutes duration with substantial periods of time available for discussion. Talks can present completed work, outline work in progress, demonstrate a system, or provide a short tutorial on a topic of general interest.

Submissions for talks should be in the form of an abstract no longer than one A4 page in plain text, PostScript or PDF format. The abstract should be emailed to Tony Sloane (Anthony.Sloane AT mq.edu.au).

As far as possible, selection of presenters is non-competitive, with all interested qualified speakers given an opportunity to talk, within the time constraints of a one day meeting. Preference will be given to topics of general interest.

No proceedings will be published but the talk abstracts and links to related material will be published on the SAPLING website. There is no registration fee to attend this meeting.

Travel Funding
---------------

A limited amount of travel support is available for students from outside Sydney, thanks to financial support from Oracle Labs, Australia. Students requesting travel support must submit a brief justification to Tony Sloane (Anthony.Sloane AT mq.edu.au) by the abstract submission deadline.

Travel support will only be available for students from Australia and New Zealand. Funds are limited and we will give priority to students likely to benefit most from attending the meeting, i.e. students whose research is most aligned with the topic. Support will not exceed the cheapest airfare or train fare from the nearest major airport/train fare to Sydney.

[Anthony Sloane]

This is a reminder that SAPLING 2019 abstracts and travel funding requests are due next Friday 11/10.

Please consider coming and if you have a PL topic to talk about, please submit an abstract. Previously presented work or work in progress is fine.

thanks,

Tony
