INTRODUCTION

The 15th Brazilian Symposium on Programming Languages, SBLP 2011, will
be held in Sao Paulo, Brazil, between September 26th and 30th,
2011. SBLP provides a venue for researchers and practitioners
interested in the fundamental principles and innovations in the design
and implementation of programming languages and systems.

The symposium will be part of the 2nd Brazilian Conference on
Software: Theory and Practice, CBSoft 2011,
http://www.each.usp.br/cbsoft2011/, which will host four well-established Brazilian symposia: 

* XXV Brazilian Symposium on Software Engineering (SBES)
* XV Brazilian Symposium on Programming Languages (SBLP)
* XIV Brazilian Symposium on Formal Methods (SBMF)
* V Brazilian Symposium on Components, Software Architecture and
Software Reuse (SBCARS)

SBLP 2011 invites authors to contribute with technical
papers related (but not limited) to:

* Program generation and transformation, including domain-specific
 languages and model-driven development in the context of programming
 languages.

* Programming paradigms and styles, including functional,
 object-oriented, aspect-oriented, scripting languages, real-time,
 service-oriented, multithreaded, parallel, and distributed
 programming.

* Formal semantics and theoretical foundations, including
 denotational, operational, algebraic and categorical approaches.

* Program analysis and verification, including type systems, static
 analysis and abstract interpretation.

* Programming language design and implementation, including new
 programming models, programming language environments, compilation
 and interpretation techniques.

SUBMISSIONS

Submissions should be done using SBLP 2011 installation of the
EasyChair conference management system at
http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=sblp2011.

Contributions should be written in Portuguese or English. We solicit
papers that should fall into one of two different categories: full
papers, with at most 15 pages, or short papers, with at most 5
pages. All papers should be prepared using the Easychair
template. (http://www.easychair.org/easychair.zip) In particular, we
encourage the submission of short papers reporting on master
dissertations or doctoral theses at early stages of their
development. All accepted papers will be published in the conference
proceedings.

As in previous editions, a journal special issue, with selected papers
from accepted contributions, is anticipated. From 2003 to 2008 there
were special issues of the Journal of Universal Computer Science,
published by Springer, with the post-proceedings of SBLP. The
post-proceedings of SBLP 2009 and 2010 are being edited as special
issues of Science of Computer Programming, published by Elsevier.
