PLDI 2016

The 37th Annual ACM SIGPLAN conference on Programming Language Design and Implementation, PLDI, is the premier forum for all areas of programming language research, including the design, implementation, theory, and efficient use of languages. PLDI’s emphases include innovative and creative approaches to compile-time and runtime technology, novel language designs and features, and results from implementations.
