We are pleased to announce the 2nd International Workshop on Automated Program Repair (APR 2021) co-located with International Conference on Software Engineering (ICSE 2021). Automated program repair is an emerging research area that aims to reduce the time and effort spent on fixing software bugs. The recent explosive growth of works on program repair has culminated in successful deployments of program repair in industry. Despite these considerable advances, program repair still faces fundamental technological and societal challenges. This workshop will create an opportunity for the research community to coordinate its effort for addressing these challenges, share recent ideas and results, and formulate an agenda for future research.
