The 21st International Conference on Managed Programming Languages & Runtimes (MPLR, formerly ManLang, originally PPPJ) is a premier forum for presenting and discussing novel results in all aspects of managed programming languages and runtime systems, which serve as building blocks for some of the most important computing systems in use, ranging from small-scale (embedded and real-time systems) to large-scale (cloud-computing and big-data platforms) and anything in between (desktop, mobile, IoT, and wearable applications).
#### Topics
The areas of interest include but are not limited to:
- **Languages and Compilers**
- Managed languages (e.g., Java, Scala, JavaScript, Python, Ruby, C#, F#, Clojure, Groovy, Kotlin, R, Smalltalk, Racket, Rust, Go, Lua, MATLAB, Raku, Pony, …)
- Domain-specific languages
- Language design
- Compilers and interpreters
- Type systems and program logics
- Language interoperability
- Parallelism, distribution, and concurrency
- **Virtual Machines**
- Portable intermediate representations (e.g., JVM, WebAssembly, RPython, ...)
- Managed runtime systems (e.g., GraalVM, Android Runtime (ART), V8, JavaScriptCore, .NET, …)
- VM design and optimization
- VMs for mobile and embedded devices
- VMs for real-time applications
- Memory management and garbage collection
- Hardware/software co-design
- Persistence
- **Techniques, Tools, and Applications**
- Static and dynamic program analysis
- Testing and debugging
- Refactoring
- Program understanding
- Program synthesis
- Security and privacy
- Performance analysis and monitoring
- Compiler and program verification and model checking

#### Submission Categories
MPLR accepts four types of submissions:
Regular research papers
describing novel contributions involving managed language platforms.
Research papers will be evaluated based on their relevance, novelty,
technical rigor, and contribution to the state-of-the-art.
Format: up to 12 pages, excluding bibliography and appendix
Work-in-progress research papers
describing hot topics or promising new ideas, with perhaps less maturity
than full papers. Work-in-progress papers will be evaluated with an
emphasis on novelty and the potential of the new ideas instead of technical
rigor and experimental results.
Format: up to 6 pages, excluding bibliography and appendix
Industry and tool papers
presenting technical challenges and solutions for managed language
platforms in the context of deployed applications and systems. Industry and
tool papers will be evaluated on their relevance, usefulness, and results.
Suitability for demonstration and availability will also be considered for
tool papers.
Format: up to 6 pages, excluding bibliography and appendix;
up to 12 pages allowed if justified by the content
Posters and demonstrations
which will be evaluated similarly to work-in-progress papers.
Format: poster pdf and 1-page abstract
Accepted submissions will be published in the ACM Digital Library, except if the authors prefer not to be included.
MPLR 2024 submissions must conform to the ACM Policy on Prior Publication and Simultaneous Submissions and to the SIGPLAN Republication Policy.
See http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Policies/Republication
#### Author Instructions
Submissions need to use the ACM SIGPLAN format with the `sigplan` style.
If you are using LaTeX, submissions need to use the `acmart` document class with the `sigplan` option (*not* the `sigconf` option). In the `acmart-primary.zip` file that downloads from the LaTeX (Version 1.90) link on the https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template page, look for `samples/sample-sigplan.tex` as a guide. If you use Overleaf, be sure to change the `documentclass` option `manuscript` to `sigplan`. For ease of reviewing, please include page numbers in your submission using the LaTeX command `\settopmatter{printfolios=true}`. Please use the standard setting, e.g., the default font size for the SIGPLAN style is 10 point and the format uses two columns for the test.
All submissions need to be in PDF format. MPLR now uses **double-blind reviewing**. **Authors should not show their
names on a submission and should refer to their own work in third person.** We further
recommend that they avoid publicizing the work, at least under the same or similar title, while it is under review.
Please also ensure that your submission is legible when printed on a black and white printer. In particular, please check that colors remain distinct and font sizes are legible.
