PPoPP 2021
Sat 27 February - Wed 3 March 2021

PPoPP 2021 will host a variety of high-quality workshops and tutorials, allowing their participants to learn about popular and new tools and technologies, to meet and discuss research questions with peers, to mature new and exciting ideas, and to build up communities and start new collaborations. PPoPP workshops and tutorials complement the main tracks of the conference. Workshops provide meetings in a smaller and more specialized setting to cultivate new ideas and concepts for the future and can optionally be recorded in formal proceedings.

Workshops and tutorials will be held prior to the main conference on Saturday–Sunday, February 27-28, 2021 and are half a day or a full day in length. Attendees of CGO 2021 and HPCA 2021 are also able to register and participate in these workshops and tutorials.

Members of the community are encouraged to submit proposals for workshops and tutorials within the general scope of PPoPP that bring together researchers and practitioners to share their tools, technologies, latest results and to discuss work in progress and new directions. For details please consult the Call for Workshops and Tutorials.
