PLAS 2021 Call for Participation - 16th Workshop on Programming Languages and Analysis for Security

by Marco Guarnieri, Dec. 2, 2021

PLAS 2021 will be held online on December 7. Participation will be free without any preregistration.

PLAS provides a forum for exploring and evaluating the use of programming language and program analysis techniques for promoting security in the complete range of software systems, from compilers to machine-learned models and smart contracts. The workshop encourages proposals of new, speculative ideas, evaluations of new or known techniques in practical settings, and discussions of emerging threats and problems. We also host position papers that are radical, forward-looking, and lead to lively and insightful discussions influential to the future research at the intersection of programming languages and security.
