The Fall 2002 Meeting of the Midwest Society for Programming Languages and Systems (MSPLS) will take place at Robert Morris College. The purpose of the Society's meetings is to provide a forum for presenting and discussing new ideas and ongoing work, while encouraging interaction between researchers in this geographical area. MSPLS has a tradition of being an excellent place for new researchers to give first talks on their work, giving them practice in presentation skills.
This workshop acts as a local forum for researchers and practitioners interested in Programming Languages and Systems. It is an opportunity to present and observe the latest research, results, and ideas in these areas. It will include a number of streams.
Papers in all areas of Programming Languages and Systems are invited. Submitted papers may present significant
final results or describe interesting research in progress. Participation of graduate students is
specially encouraged. Papers should
range in length from four to eight pages including figures and references using
the AAAI format available from the AAAI web page at http://www.aaai.org/Publications/Author/authorinstructions.html.
The authors will retain the copyright.
If you are interested in presenting a talk at the MSPLS meeting, prepare a title for your talk, names of authors and speaker, and a brief abstract. Submit this information via email as an attachment to fakkawi@smtp.rmcil.edu by November 10.
Abstracts and papers will be accepted on the basis of appropriateness for MSPLS
presentation and availability of presentation time slots.
We also encourage you to submit a full paper. The abstracts and full papers will be published as a technical report in the series of Illinois Institute of Technology Computer Science Department, and distributed to registered attendees as a hardcopy.
The WORKSHOP will begin at
10:30AM, starting with an invited talk. Workshop presentations will continue
through the afternoon with the meeting ending in an informal dinner at a local
restaurant. Information about the schedule, travel arrangement details,
