PLDI'98 Information

1998 ACM SIGPLAN Conference on
Programming Language Design and Implementation

Montreal, Canada, 17-19 June 1998

Welcome to the PLDI '98 home page! Here you will find links to the latest information on the conference, including tutorials and registration.

PLDI '98 provides a forum for researchers and developers to hear about the latest practical and experimental work in the design and implementation of programming languages and compilers. Emphasis will be placed on experimental results and experience with the languages and techniques described. The conference seeks original papers relevant to practical issues concerning the design, development, implementation, and use of programming languages (in contrast to the POPL symposium, which typically seeks papers on foundations).
