Proceedings Tenth Workshop on Programming Language Approaches to Concurrency- and Communication-cEntric Software
It is an incremental workshop proceedings that targets researchers and practitioners in programming languages and concurrent software systems.
This paper describes the tenth edition of the PLACES workshop series, which focuses on applying novel programming language ideas to address challenges in software development for systems with intrinsic concurrency and communication, such as multi-core and distributed systems, by presenting accepted papers from the 2017 event.
PLACES 2017 (full title: Programming Language Approaches to Concurrency- and Communication-cEntric Software) is the tenth edition of the PLACES workshop series. After the first PLACES, which was affiliated to DisCoTec in 2008, the workshop has been part of ETAPS every year since 2009 and is now an established part of the ETAPS satellite events. PLACES 2017 was held on 29th April in Uppsala, Sweden. The workshop series was started in order to promote the application of novel programming language ideas to the increasingly important problem of developing software for systems in which concurrency and communication are intrinsic aspects. This includes software for both multi-core systems and large-scale distributed and/or service-oriented systems. The scope of PLACES includes new programming language features, whole new programming language designs, new type systems, new semantic approaches, new program analysis techniques, and new implementation mechanisms. This volume consists of the papers accepted for presentation at the workshop.
