PPoPP'03 Call for Papers
The ACM SIGPLAN 2003 Symposium on Principles and Practice of Parallel Programming will be held in
San Diego, California, June 11-13, 2003
as part of the Federated Computing Research Conference (FCRC'03) .
[palms.jpg] The goal of the PPoPP Symposia is to provide a forum for papers on the principles and foundations of parallel programming, tools and techniques for parallel programming, and experiences in using parallel programming to solve applications problems.
PPoPP seeks papers on topics relevant to all areas of software for parallel, distributed, and concurrent systems. Topics of interest include:
* Parallel and distributed programming
* Analysis and verification of parallel or distributed programs
* Automatic parallelization
* Performance analysis of parallel or distributed systems
* Optimization of parallel or distributed programs
* Parallel and distributed programming languages
* Tools for developing parallel or distributed software
* Grid computing
* Distributed data management
* Parallel and distributed databases
* Internet query processing
* Internet services
* Software for embedded or real-time systems
* Parallel algorithms
* Parallel applications
* Distributed algorithms
* Performance analysis of parallel or distributed software
* Software engineering for parallel or distributed software
Papers should report on original research in any of these areas of parallel programming, and should contain enough background material to make them accessible to the entire parallel programming research community. In the context of PPoPP, "parallel computing" should be construed broadly to include high performance and distributed computing. Experience papers should indicate how the experiments illustrate general principles; papers oriented towards foundations should indicate how the work illuminates or influences practice.

Important dates
Papers due: December 15, 2002
Acceptance notices to authors: February 22, 2003
Final papers due: March 29, 2003
Conference: June 11-13, 2003
Submission
Electronic paper submission is through the PPoPP web site. All submissions should be 12 pages maximum, including bibliography and figures, using the ACM SIGPLAN format. See the Author Information for ACM SIGPLAN Conferences Authors will be notified of acceptance or rejection by February 22, 2003. Final versions of accepted papers must be received in camera-ready form by March 29, 2003. Authors of accepted papers will be expected to sign a copyright release form. Proceedings will be distributed at the conference and as a special issue of SIGPLAN Notices; they will subsequently be available from ACM. Papers published in proceedings are eligible for subsequent publication in refereed ACM journals at the discretion of the editor of the particular journal. Papers describing essentially the same work must not have been published elsewhere or be simultaneously under consideration for publication elsewhere.
