SCOPE

GPCE is a programming languages conference focusing on techniques and tools for code generation, language implementation, and product-line development. GPCE seeks conceptual, theoretical, empirical, and technicalcontributions to its topics of interest, which include but are not limited to:

• program transformation, staging, macro systems, preprocessors, program synthesis, and code-recommendation systems,
• domain-specific languages, language embedding, language design, and language workbenches,
• feature-oriented programming, domain engineering, and feature interactions,
• applications and properties of code generation, language implementation, and product-line development.

Authors are welcome to check with the PC chair whether their planned
papers are in scope.

PAPER SELECTION

The GPCE program committee will evaluate each submission according to the
following selection citeria:

* Novelty. Papers must present new ideas or evidence and place them
appropriately within the context established by previous research in
the field.
* Significance. The results in the paper must have the potential to add
to the state of the art or practice in significant ways.
* Evidence. The paper must present evidence supporting its claims.
Examples of evidence include formalizations and proofs, implemented
systems, experimental results, statistical analyses, and case studies.
* Clarity. The paper must present its contributions and results clearly.

PAPER SUBMISSION

GPCE solicits three kinds of submissions. All submissions must use the ACM SIGPLAN Conference Format "acmart", sub-format "sigplan" and 10 point font.

• Full Papers reporting original and unpublished results of research thatcontribute to scientific knowledge in any GPCE topic listed above. Full paper submissions must not exceed 12 pages excluding bibliography.
• Short Papers presenting unconventional ideas or visions about any GPCEtopic listed above. Short papers do not always require complete results as in the case of a full paper. In this way, authors can introduce new ideas to the community and get early feedback. Please note that short papers are not intended to be position statements. Short papers are included in the proceedings and will be presented at the conference. Short paper submissions must not exceed 6 pages excluding bibliography.
• Tool Demonstrations presenting tools for any GPCE topic listed above. Tools must be available for use and must not be purely commercial. Submissions must provide a tool description not exceeding 6 pages excluding bibliography and a separate demonstration outline including screenshots also not exceeding 6 pages. Tool demonstrations must have the keywords "Tool Demo" or "Tool Demonstration" in their title. If the submission is accepted, the tool description will be published in the proceedings. The demonstration outline will only be used by the program committee for evaluating the submission.

For additional information, clarification, or answers to questions please contact the program chair.
