CALL FOR PAPERS

META 2016
Fifth International Valentin Turchin Workshop on Metacomputation

Pereslavl-Zalessky, Russia
June 27 - July 1, 2016
http://meta2016.pereslavl.ru

Submission deadline: April 11, 2016

The Fifth International Valentin Turchin Workshop on Metacomputation (META 2016) aims to bring together researchers working in the areas of program analysis and program manipulation, collectively referred to as metacomputation: supercompilation, partial evaluation, distillation, mixed computation, generalized partial computation, slicing, verification, as well as cross-fertilization with other modern research and development directions, and their applications.

This series of workshops is devoted to the memory of Valentin Turchin (1931-2010).

The workshop will be held in June 27 - July 1, 2014, in an ancient Russian town Pereslavl-Zalessky, on the bank of Pleshcheevo lake, in Ailamazyan Program Systems Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Pereslavl-Zalessky belongs to the Golden Ring of the historical sites of Russia.

The previous workshops in this series were META 2008, META 2010, META 2012, and META 2014.

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to

  • Distillation
  • Generalized partial computation
  • Mixed computation
  • Partial evaluation
  • Program inversion
  • Program slicing
  • Program verification techniques including theorem proving and testing
  • Supercompilation
  • Techniques that treat programs/models as data objects
  • Tool descriptions, case studies, tutorials, surveys, comparison of methods, and problem statements on these topics

Important Dates

  • April 11, 2016 (Monday) - submission due
  • April 29, 2016 (Friday) - notification of acceptance
  • May 20, 2016 (Monday) - camera ready paper due for pre-proceedings
  • June 26 (Sunday) - arrival
  • June 27 - July 1 (Monday - Friday) - workshop
  • July 2 (Saturday) - departure

Submission

Interested researchers are invited to submit full papers or extended abstracts (sufficient to evaluate the quality of contribution), describing completed research or work-in-progress, as well as surveys, tutorials, tools, applications, demonstrations, practical experience, ideas, concepts, position statements, open problems and discussion topics.

After several decades of research, metacomputation topics are very diverse, and we especially welcome surveys and tutorials for cross-fertilization and discussions of current state of art and future perspectives.

All submissions will be accepted as PDF file using the LNCS style via EasyChair (http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=meta2016). Final papers are to be prepared in LaTeX in the LNCS format following the the Springer LNCS guidelines.

See additional information on the site http://meta2016.pereslavl.ru.

The proceedings will be published at a local publishing house before the workshop. They will be made accessible in electronic form via Internet.
