FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS

Sixteenth ACM SIGPLAN Erlang Workshop
http://erlang.org/workshop/2017/

Oxford, United Kingdom, 8 September 2017
Satellite event of the 22nd ACM SIGPLAN International Conference on
Functional Programming (ICFP 2017)
3 - 9 September, 2017

The Erlang Workshop aims to bring together the open source, academic,
and industrial communities of Erlang, to discuss technologies and
languages related to Erlang. The Erlang model of concurrent programming
has been widely emulated, for example by Akka in Scala, and even new
programming languages were designed atop of the Erlang VM, such as
Elixir. Therefore we would like to broaden the scope of the workshop
to include systems like those mentioned above.

The workshop will enable participants to familiarize themselves with
recent developments on new techniques and tools, novel applications,
draw lessons from users’ experiences and identify research problems
and common areas relevant to the practice of Erlang, Erlang-like
languages, functional programming, distribution, concurrency etc.

We invite three types of submissions.

  1. Technical, practice, and application papers describing interesting
    contributions either in theoretical work or real world applications.
    Submission related to Erlang, Elixir, Akka, CloudHaskell, OCaml, and
    functional programming are welcome and encouraged. The maximum
    length is restricted to 12 pages.

  2. Experience reports describing uses of Erlang in the “real-world”,
    Erlang libraries for specific tasks, experiences from using Erlang in specific
    application domains, reusable programming idioms and elegant new ways
    of using Erlang to approach or solve a particular problem. The maximum
    length for the experience report is restricted to 2 pages.

  3. Poster presentations describing topics related to the workshop
    goals. Each includes a maximum of 2 pages of the abstract and summary.
    Presentations in this category will be given an hour of shared
    simultaneous demonstration time.
