FIRST CALL FOR PAPERS 2002 ACM SIGPLAN Workshop on Partial Evaluation and Semantics-Based Program Manipulation (PEPM'02) Portland, Oregon, USA, January 14-15, 2002 (preceding POPL'02) http://www.informatik.uni-freiburg.de/~thiemann/pepm02 Submission deadline: 8 October, 2001 The PEPM'02 workshop will bring together researchers working in the areas of semantics-based program manipulation, partial evaluation, and program generation. The workshop focuses on techniques, supporting theory, and applications of the analysis and manipulation of programs. Technical topics include, but are not limited to: * Program manipulation techniques: transformation, specialization, normalization, reflection, rewriting, run-time code generation, multi-level programming. * Program analysis techniques: abstract interpretation, static analysis, binding-time analysis, attribute grammars, constraints. * Related issues in language design and models of computation: imperative, functional, logical, object-oriented, parallel, distributed, mobile, secure, domain-specific. * Programs as data objects: staging, meta-programming, incremental computation, mobility, tools and techniques, prototyping and debugging. * Applications: systems programming, scientific computing, algorithmics, graphics, security checking, simulation, compiler generation, compiler optimization, decompilation. * Assessment: applicability of program manipulation techniques to particular architectures and language paradigms, scalability, benchmarking, portability. Original results that bear on these and related topics are solicited. Papers investigating novel uses and applications of program manipulation in the broadest sense are especially encouraged. Authors concerned about the appropriateness of a topic are welcome to consult with the program chair prior to submission. SUBMISSION INFORMATION Papers should be submitted electronically via the workshop's Web page. Exceptionally, submissions may be emailed to the program chair: <URL:mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. Acceptable formats are PostScript or PDF, viewable by gv. Submissions should not exceed 5000 words, excluding bibliography and figures. Excessively long submissions may be rejected outright. Submitted papers will be judged on the basis of significance, relevance, correctness, originality, and clarity. They should include a clear identification of what has been accomplished and why it is significant. They must describe work that has not previously been published in a major forum. Authors must indicate if a closely related paper is also being considered for another conference or journal. Proceedings will be published with ACM Press. A special issue of the journal "Higher-Order and Symbolic Computation" <URL:http://www.wkap.nl/journals/lasc> is planned afterwards. PROGRAM COMMITTEE Maria Alpuente (U.
