Call for Tutorials (POPL 2016)

by Rastislav BODIK

Call for Tutorials (POPL 2016) Since 2012, POPL has been/is home to TutorialFest, which features a buffet of half-day talks oriented towards students in particular and other POPL attendees in general. Tutorials for POPL 2016 are solicited on any topic relevant to the POPL audience. In particular, tutorials that strive to do one of the following have been especially successful in the past: - Describe an important piece of research infrastructure. - Educate the community on an emerging topic. For examples of past tutorials, see the websites of TutorialFest <http://wrigstad.com/popl13/tutorialfest.html> 2013 <http://wrigstad.com/popl13/tutorialfest.html> and 2014 <http://popl.mpi-sws.org/2014/tutorials2.html>. In 2016, tutorials will be held on Monday January 18, 2016 (two days before the main conference and the day before PLMW). For each accepted tutorial, one presenter will receive complimentary registration to POPL. We are investigating low-cost options for video-recording tutorials if consented by tutorial presenters. Submission Procedures Submissions should be in pdf or plain-text, sent via email to Ras Bodik (bodik[AT]cs.washington.edu) with subject line "POPL tutorial proposal") with the following information: - Tutorial title - Presenter(s), affiliation(s), and contact information - 1-3 page description (for evaluation). This should include the objectives, topics to be covered, presentation approach, target audience, prerequisite knowledge, and if the tutorial was previously held, the location (i.e. which conference), date, and number of attendees, and slides if available. - 1-2 paragraph abstract suitable for tutorial publicity. - 1 paragraph biography suitable for tutorial publicity. The conference chairs may also solicit tutorials directly, as has been common in the past. Important Dates Submission Deadline: September 15, 2015, anywhere on earth. Tutorial Notification: On or before October 15, 2015. Questions Questions should be emailed to the POPL 2016 General Chair, Ras Bodik at bodik(a)cs.washington.edu.

by Tudor Girba

Hi, GT Spotter, the novel Pharo search interface, just entered the ESUG 2015 Innovation Technology Awards competition. GT Spotter is part of the Glamorous Toolkit project (gt.moosetechnology.org) and it offers an elegantly uniform search interface for any objects, including classes, packages, methods, senders, files, playground pages, examples, projects, and even your custom objects. It can be easily extended, currently featuring more than 100 such extensions. [image: Inline image 1] To get a better idea of what GT Spotter brings, here is an overview slideshow: http://www.slideshare.net/girba/gt-spotter Don't miss the live demo at ESUG :). Cheers, The Glamorous Team

The website still says that Camp Smalltalk will *probably* be at the Centro Pastorale paolo VI, which is what it's said for quite a while. I have not seen anything saying that Camp Smalltalk would be at Università Cattolica. It would be good to get clarification on the website and on the ESUG list from someone with definite knowledge.

Of course not :) This new offer does not change anything of how we are working now. That sentence means something like “I still use Pharo 1.4 and I really need to fix this”: Then we will take care of it… :) Esteban > > > > ----- > Cheers, > Sean > -- > View this message in context: http://forum.world.st/ANN-PharoPro-A-support-company-for-Pharo-on-the-works… > Sent from the ESUG mailing list archive at Nabble.com. > > _______________________________________________ > Esug-list mailing list > Esug-list(a)lists.esug.org > http://lists.esug.org/mailman/listinfo/esug-list_lists.esug.org
