International Journal of Programming Languages and Applications (IJPLA)

Call for Papers

The International Journal of Programming Languages and Applications (IJPLA) publishes high quality research on the design, theory, implementation, and application of programming languages. The journal welcomes contributions that advance the state of the art in language theory, compilers, runtime systems, verification, security, and emerging computational paradigms. IJPLA aims to serve as a leading venue for foundational research as well as innovative practical work that shapes the future of programming.

Topics of interest include but are not limited to, the following

• Type systems, type inference, and type soundness
  
• Formal semantics (operational, denotational, axiomatic)
  
• Program logics, proof systems, and mechanized metatheory
  
• Novel programming paradigms and experimental language designs
  
• Domain specific languages (DSLs) and meta programming
  
  Compilers, Optimization and Program Analysis
  
  
• Compiler architectures, intermediate representations, and code generation
  
• Static and dynamic program analysis
