ProWeb 2019: 3rd International Workshop on Programming Technology for the
Future Web
https://2019.programming-conference.org/track/proweb-2019-papers
Co-located with the <Programming> conference
April 1, Genova, Italy
================
Full-fledged web applications have become ubiquitous on desktop and mobile
devices alike. Whereas “responsive” web applications already offered a more
desktop-like experience, there is an increasing demand for “rich” web
applications (RIAs) that offer collaborative and even off-line functionality
—Google docs being the prototypical example. Long gone are the days that web
servers merely had to answer incoming HTTP request with a block of static HTML.
Today’s servers react to a continuous stream of events coming from JavaScript
applications that have been pushed to clients. As a result, application logic
and data is increasingly distributed. Traditional dichotomies such as “client
vs. server” and “offline vs. online” are fading.
** Call for Papers **
The 3rd International Workshop on Programming Technology for the Future Web, or
ProWeb19, is a forum for researchers and practitioners to share and discuss new
technology for programming these and future evolutions of the web. We welcome
submissions introducing programming technology (i.e., frameworks, libraries,
programming languages, program analyses and development tools) for implementing
web applications and for maintaining their quality over time, as well as
experience reports about the use of state-of-the-art programming technology.
Relevant topics include, but are not limited to:
Relevant topics include, but are not limited to:
- Quality on the new web:
static and dynamic program analyses; code, design test and process metrics;
development and migration tools; automated testing and test generation;
contract systems, type systems, and web service API conformance checking; ...
- Hosting languages on the web:
new runtimes; transpilation or compilation to JavaScript, WebAssembly, asm.js,
...
- Designing languages for the web:
multi-tier (or tierless) programming; reactive programming; frameworks for
multi-tier or reactive programming on the web; ...
- Distributed data sharing, replication and consistency:
cloud types, CRDTs, eventual consistency, offline storage, peer-to-peer
communication, ...
- Security on the web:
client-side and server-side security policies; policy enforcement; proxies and
membranes; vulnerability detection; dynamic patching, ...
- Surveys and case studies using state-of-the-art web technology
- Ideas on and experience reports about:
how to reconcile the need for quality with the need for agility on the web; how
to master and combine the myriad of tier-specific technologies required to
develop a web application, ..
- Position statements on what the future of the web should look like
We solicit three kinds of submissions via EasyChair:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=proweb2019
- 6-page **technical papers** and **experience reports** that, when accepted,
will be published in the workshop proceedings as part of of the ACM’s Digital
Library.
- 3-page **position statements** that, when accepted, will be published in the
workshop post-proceedings as part of of the ACM’s Digital Library.
- 1-page **presentation abstracts** that, when accepted, will be made available
on the website.
Each submission will be reviewed by at least three members of the program
committee. We welcome submissions that identify new problems, or report on
promising ideas in early stages of research. Submissions of the third kind are
ideal to further disseminate existing ideas within the community, to
demonstrate existing tools, or simply to instigate a discussion.
