PLoP 2015
Fri 23 - Mon 26 October 2015 Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, United States
co-located with SPLASH 2015

The Pattern Languages of Programs (PLoP) conference is a premier event for pattern authors and pattern enthusiasts to gather, discuss and learn more about patterns and software development.

The conference promotes development of pattern languages on all aspects of software, including design and programming, software architecture, user interface design, domain modeling, software processes, project management, and more. The program offers pattern authors an unique opportunity to have their pattern languages reviewed by fellow authors, which occurs mainly in the form of Writers’ Workshops.

See the main website for detailed information about the conference: http://www.hillside.net/plop/2015/

Call for Papers

Submission deadline extended: May 12th!

Paper submissions may include short papers containing one or more patterns, longer pattern languages or sequences, or works-in-progress by writers wishing to get in-depth shepherding by an experienced author at the conference. Patterns and pattern languages on other topics, essays on patterns, and visions for the future are encouraged.

In addition, you may submit proposals for free-format discussion groups or workshops bringing together people interested in a hot topic related to patterns or proven practices—with a duration about two hours. Non-conventional formats are welcome.

See the main website for the full call for papers: http://www.hillside.net/plop/2015/index.php?nav=submissions

PLoP has a special pre-conference session aimed at people new to patterns. The BootCamp will be held on Friday October 23, 2015. Register for Bootcamp!

BOOTCAMP INFO

The PLoP experience provides something different, but needed, in the patterns community – a “bootcamp” for newcomers. The session will provide an introduction to patterns – a training and mentoring experience where participants will be immersed in patterns and emerge with an enlarged perspective, their first pattern, and an ability to get more out of all PLoP conferences. Writing your own first pattern is extremely important, since there is no better way to learn what patterns are all about! The presentation consists of a mix of lecture, discussion, group pattern writing, game playing, and writers’ workshop practice - not necessarily in that order. The only requirements are an open mind, ready to absorb the patterns experience, and an idea for a pattern you will craft at this pre-PLoP session.

PLoP has a special pre-conference session aimed at people new to patterns. The BootCamp will be held on October 23, 2015.

WHO SHOULD ATTEND

The ideal attendee would have an interest in patterns, have an idea for a pattern that they want to write. The tutorial will benefit anyone participating in the PLoP conference.

 GOALS

  1. Become part of the patterns community.
  2. Understand how good patterns are structured.
  3. See a variety of pattern formats and understand the trade-offs between the alternatives.
  4. Become comfortable with patterns reading and writing and, if you should decide to attend PLoP, have a better understanding of what goes on at the conference.

REGISTRATION

Space is limited, so please Register for Bootcamp!
