**** Call for Papers ****

The 8th Dynamic Languages Symposium (DLS) at SPLASH 2012 is a forum for the
discussion of dynamic languages, their implementation and application.
While mature dynamic languages including Smalltalk, Lisp, Scheme, Self,
Prolog, and APL continue to grow and inspire new converts, a new generation
of dynamic scripting languages such as JavaScript, Python, Ruby, PHP, Tcl,
Lua, and Clojure are successful in a wide range of applications. DLS
provides a place for researchers and practitioners to come together and
share their knowledge, experience, and ideas for future research and
development.

DLS 2012 invites high quality papers reporting original research,
innovative contributions or experience related to dynamic languages, their
implementation and application. Accepted Papers will be published in the
ACM Digital Library.

Areas of interest include but are not limited to:

 * Innovative language features and implementation techniques
 * Development and platform support, tools
 * Interesting applications
 * Domain-oriented programming
 * Very late binding, dynamic composition, and runtime adaptation
 * Reflection and meta-programming
 * Software evolution
 * Language symbiosis and multi-paradigm languages
 * Dynamic optimization
 * Hardware support
 * Experience reports and case studies
 * Educational approaches and perspectives
 * Object-oriented, aspect-oriented, and context-oriented programming

=== Submissions and proceedings ===

We invite original contributions that neither have been published
previously nor are under review by other refereed events or publications.
Research papers should describe work that advances the current state of the
art. Experience papers should be of broad interest and should describe
insights gained from substantive practical applications. The program
committee will evaluate each contributed paper based on its relevance,
significance, clarity, length, and originality.

Papers should be of a length appropriate to their content: a shorter paper
may be sufficient to describe a smaller but still significant result, and
no paper will be rated poorly solely based on its length.

Accepted papers will be published in the ACM Digital Library.

Papers are to be submitted electronically at
http://www.easychair.org/conferences?conf=dls12 in PDF format. Submissions
should not exceed 12 pages and need to use the ACM format, templates for
which can be found at http://www.sigplan.org/authorInformation.htm.

=== Important dates ===

Submission of papers: July 11, 2012 (hard deadline)
Author notification: August 1, 2012
Final versions due: August 15, 2012
DLS 2012: October 22, 2012
SPLASH 2012: October 19-26, 2012
