The Fall 2001 MSPLS meeting is cancelled. A lot of people have schedule conflicts, but it seems that many people think Kentucky is just too far away... so, with much regret, we have again been forced to cancel the meeting. Of course, visitors are still very welcome; contact hankd@engr.uky.edu if you are interested in visiting the University of Kentucky.
The Fall 2001 meeting of the Midwest Society for Programming Languages and Systems will be held Saturday, October 27, 2001 at the University of Kentucky in Lexington, KY.
MSPLS meetings are open to anyone interested in programming languages, programming systems, and system software in general. The purpose of these meetings is to provide an informal forum for presenting and discussing new ideas and ongoing work, while encouraging interaction between researchers in this geographical area. Thus, MSPLS meetings are forums for making contacts with other researchers and exploring new ideas, not places for publishing final results.
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. A WWW form will be posted here shortly for submissions. Abstracts and papers will be accepted on the basis of appropriateness for MSPLS presentation and availability of presentation time slots. Presentation of preliminary ideas and work in progress is strongly encouraged. As a friendly and informal workshop, 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 and also helping to establish them in the Midwest SIGPLAN community.
In addition to the above, you may submit a full paper. The abstracts and full papers for selected talks will be distributed to attendees as a hardcopy technical report issued by the University of Kentucky Electrical and Computer Engineering Department.
The workshop schedule will begin in the late morning and will continue through the afternoon, ending in an informal dinner at a local restaurant. The incredibly tentative schedule is:
Lexington, which is on New York time, is definitely in the southern midwest, about a 6 hour drive from Chicago. Fortunately, it is an easy drive: route 65 to Louisville, then route 64 to Lexington... or you can drive a little more than an hour south from Cincinatti. If you'd rather fly, Lexington also has a nice airport. We'll post a map and complete travel directions shortly.
Given a longish drive, you might want to spend a night here. That's fairly cheap and easy; better still, there's plenty to do around here so you might want to treat your trip like a weekend getaway. Send email to hankd@engr.uky.edu if you need more information about places to stay, etc.
This meeting is being hosted by Hank Dietz, hankd@engr.uky.edu, office: (859) 257 4701, lab: (859) 257 9695.
