The 2007 ACM International Conference on Virtual Execution Environments
Call For Papers

VEE brings together researchers and practitioners in the area of virtual execution environments for programs. These areas include such topics as high-level language virtual machines (JVMs, CLRs, etc.), process and system virtual machines, hardware support for virtualization, interpreters, translators, machine emulators, and simulators. The VEE conference seeks original papers in areas including, but not limited to:

  • Virtual machines for high-level languages
  • High-level languages for virtualization
  • System support for virtual execution environments
  • Virtual execution environment support for parallelism
  • Virtualization for security, correctness, and reliability
  • Dynamic compilation techniques
  • Binary translation and optimization
  • Novel aspects or applications of interpreters
  • Processor/architecture simulators
  • Experiences with virtual execution environments

 

Submission Guidelines

The deadline for submission of technical papers is Monday, February 5th, 2007, at 11:59PM PST
(Click here for the time in YOUR time zone).

Papers must be formatted according to the ACM proceedings format and should be no longer than 10 pages in this format. This 10 pages includes everything (i.e., it is the total length of the paper). The page limit will be strictly enforced, and papers that exceed the limit will be automatically rejected by the program chair.

Submissions should be in PDF (preferably) or Postscript that is interpretable by Ghostscript and printable on US Letter and A4 sized paper. We recommend that authors use the SIGPLAN-approved LaTeX format; templates can be found at http://www.acm.org/sigs/sigplan/authorInformation.htm.

Submitted papers must describe work unpublished in refereed venues, and not submitted for publication elsewhere (including journals and formal proceedings of conferences and workshops). See the SIGPLAN republication policy for more details http://www.acm.org/sigs/sigplan/republicationpolicy.htm

Authors will be notified of acceptance or rejection by March 11, 2007. Authors of accepted papers will be required to sign ACM copyright release forms. Proceedings will be published by ACM Press.

Paper Evaluation

The program committee will evaluate the technical contribution of each submission as well as its general accessibility to the VEE audience. Papers will be judged on significance, originality, relevance, correctness, and clarity. The paper must be organized so that it is easily understood by an audience with varied expertise. The paper should clearly identify what has been accomplished, why it is significant, and how it compares with previous work. Papers that introduce new ideas or approaches are especially encouraged. Suggestions on how to prepare a good submission can be found at http://www.acm.org/sigs/sigplan/conferences/author-info/.
