PPoPP is the premier forum for leading work on all aspects of parallel programming, including theoretical foundations, techniques, languages, compilers, runtime systems, tools, and practical experience. In the context of the symposium, “parallel programming” encompasses work on concurrent and parallel systems (multicore, multi-threaded, heterogeneous, clustered, and distributed systems; grids; datacenters; clouds; and large scale machines). Given the rise of parallel architectures in the consumer market (desktops, laptops, and mobile devices) and data centers, PPoPP is particularly interested in work that addresses new parallel workloads and issues that arise out of extreme-scale applications or cloud platforms, as well as techniques and tools that improve the productivity of parallel programming or work towards improved synergy with such emerging architectures.

Specific topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

Compilers and runtime systems for parallel and heterogeneous systems
Concurrent data structures
Development, analysis, or management tools
Fault tolerance for parallel systems
Formal analysis and verification
Libraries
Middleware for parallel systems
Parallel algorithms
Parallel applications and frameworks
Parallel programming languages
Parallel programming theory and models
Parallelism in non-scientific workloads: web, search, analytics, cloud
Performance analysis, debugging and optimization
Programming tools for parallel and heterogeneous systems
Software engineering for parallel programs
Software for heterogeneous architectures
Software productivity for parallel programming
Synchronization and concurrency control
Papers should report on original research relevant to parallel programming and should contain enough background materials to make them accessible to the entire parallel programming research community. Papers describing experience should indicate how they illustrate general principles or lead to new insights; papers about parallel programming foundations should indicate how they relate to practice.

PPoPP submissions will be evaluated based on their technical merit and accessibility. Submissions should clearly motivate the importance of the problem being addressed, compare to the existing body of work on the topic, and explicitly and precisely state the paper’s key contributions and results towards addressing the problem. Submissions should strive to be accessible both to a broad audience and to experts in the area.

Paper Submission: All submissions are due August 25, 2017 and must be made electronically through the conference web site and include an abstract (100–400 words), author contact information, the full list of authors and their affiliations. Full paper submissions must be in PDF formatted printable on A4 and US letter size paper. No extensions will be granted.

Papers should contain a maximum of 10 pages of text (in a typeface no smaller than 10 point) or figures, NOT INCLUDING references. There is no page limit for references and they must include the name of all authors (not {et al.}). Submission is double blind and authors will need to identify any potential conflicts of interest with PC and Extended Review Committee members, as defined here: http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Policies/Review/ (ACM SIGPLAN policy). Detailed instructions for electronic submission and other important ACM SIGPLAN Policies are posted here: Submission Guidelines.

PPoPP’18 uses two review rounds. Authors of papers that are not considered for Round II will be informed by October 25. All submissions that are not accepted for regular presentations will automatically be considered for posters. Two-page summaries of posters will be included in the conference proceedings (authors must decide by December 15 if they want to submit a poster).

For additional information regarding paper submissions, please contact the Program Chair, Thomas R. Gross thomas.gross@inf.ethz.ch.

Artifact evaluation has been included in recent PPoPP conferences and will be continued in PPoPP 2018. Authors of accepted papers will be invited to formally submit their supporting materials to the Artifact Evaluation process. The Artifact Evaluation process is run by a separate committee whose task is to assess how the artifacts support the work described in the papers. This submission is voluntary and will not influence the final decision regarding the papers. Papers that go through the Artifact Evaluation process successfully will receive a seal of approval printed on the papers themselves. Authors of accepted papers are encouraged (but not obliged) to make these materials publicly available upon publication of the proceedings, by including them as source materials in the ACM Digital Library.

AUTHORS TAKE NOTE:
The titles of all accepted papers are typically announced shortly after the author notification date (around mid-December 2017). Note, however, that this is not the official publication date. The official publication date is the date the proceedings are made available in the ACM Digital Library. ACM will make the proceedings available via the Digital Library for one month, up to 2 weeks prior to the first day of the conference. The official publication date affects the deadline for any patent filings related to published work.
