Call for Submissions


The HOPA workshop aims to bring together the various growing communities
involved in the analysis of higher-order programs.  The focus of the workshop is
both on tools and techniques for practical analysis, and on the dissemination of
new theoretical results.


Important Dates

     Submission deadline: 10th May, 2013.
     Notification: 15th May, 2013.
     Main event: 28th (afternoon) -- 29th (morning) June, 2013.


Invited Speakers

     Suresh Jagannathan, Purdue University, USA
     Neil Jones, University of Copenhagen, Denmark


Scope

     Submissions are encouraged in the form of tool presentations, exposition of
     best results, and topic tutorials or surveys.  The emphasis is on building
     bridges between communities.  Areas include but are by no means limited to
     the theory and practice of

         k-CFA, CFA2 and its variants,
         Higher-order and collapsible pushdown systems
         Higher-order recursion schemes,
         Liquid types,
         Refinement types,
         Static analysis of higher-order programs,
         Symbolic execution of higher-order programs, and
         Verification of higher-order programs.


Publication

     There will be no formal proceedings of the workshop.  Work presented may be
     submitted elsewhere for formal publication, or, indeed, may have already
     been formally published.  Abstracts will be made available online via this
     website and <a href="http://www.arxiv.org">ArXiv.org.  We encourage
     participants with analysis tools to make these tools available on our
     website.  This can be done either by providing us with source tarballs or
     zip files, or by providing us with links to the tool homepage as part of the
     submission.


Submission

     Submissions may range from 1 page abstracts through to 15 page tutorials or
     surveys in the llncs format.  Please indicate on your submission how long
     you would like to talk for.  This may range from 10 minutes for cool new
     ideas, or 45-60 minutes for full tutorials or surveys.

     Submission will be via easychair, via the following link:
