(ABBREVIATED) CALL FOR PAPERS

Sixth Workshop on Programming Languages and Operating Systems (PLOS 2011)

October 23, 2011

Hotel Cascais Miragem / Cascais, Portugal
Sponsored by ACM SIGOPS
In conjunction with SOSP 2011

Paper submission deadline: June 17, 2011


Historically, operating system development and programming language development went hand-in-hand. Today, although the systems community at large retains an iron grip on C, many people continue to explore novel approaches to OS construction based on new programming language ideas. This workshop will bring together researchers and developers from the programming language and operating system domains to discuss recent work at the intersection of these fields. It will be a platform for discussing new visions, challenges, experiences, problems, and solutions arising from the application of advanced programming and software engineering concepts to operating systems construction, and vice versa.
