ScopeThe annual Symposium on Principles of Programming Languages is a forum for the discussion of all aspects of programming languages and systems, with emphasis on how principles underpin practice. Both theoretical and experimental papers are welcome, on topics ranging from formal frameworks to experience reports. Information for attendees and authorsStudent travel awardsThe SIGPLAN Professional Activities Committee (PAC) awards travel grants that are typically reserved for students presenting papers or posters at conferences. In addition to the SIGPLAN PAC grants, we are pleased to announce the availability of a limited number of travel awards, though a grant from the National Science Foundation, for students who want to attend the conference but are not presenting. If you are a student interested in learning more about state of the art research in programming language principles, please consider applying for a POPL 2011 travel award. The awards will be distributed through the SIGPLAN PAC awards system. To apply for the student travel grant, complete the application form available here. Note that the forms were originally designed for students presenting papers. If you do not have a paper to present, then just indicate "Not applicable" in response to the question about "Title of paper / Names of Authors." This student travel grant program is designed specifically to encourage participation from junior students and underrepresented groups. Other informationInformation regarding visa support letters, as well as archived information for authors, is available here.
