PPoPP 2016

Barcelona, Spain, March 12-16 2016

Updated: Feedback Survey

PPoPP 2016 is the 21st ACM SIGPLAN Symposium on Principles and Practice of Parallel Programming

PPoPP is the forum for leading work on all aspects of parallel programming, including foundational and theoretical aspects, techniques, languages, compilers, runtime systems, tools, and practical experiences. In the context of the symposium, “parallel programming” encompasses work on concurrent and parallel systems (multicore, multithreaded, heterogeneous, clustered systems, distributed systems, grids, clouds, and large scale machines). Given the rise of parallel architectures into the consumer market (desktops, laptops, and mobile devices), PPoPP is particularly interested in work that addresses new parallel workloads, techniques, and tools that attempt to improve the productivity of parallel programming, and work towards improved synergy with such emerging architectures.

PPoPP 2016 will be held in Barcelona, Spain, on March 12-16 2016. PPoPP 2016 will be co-located with HPCA 2016, CGO 2016, CC 2016, LLVM 2016. RoMoL 2016 is also taking place on March 17-18.
