SIGMOD/PODS, Jun 12 – 17
The annual ACM SIGMOD/PODS Conference is a leading international forum for database researchers, practitioners, developers, and users to explore cutting-edge ideas and results, and to exchange techniques, tools, and experiences. The conference includes a fascinating technical program with research and industrial talks, tutorials, demos, and focused workshops. Keynote speakers include Barbara Liskov “Reflections on Programming Methodology,” Laks V.S. Lakshmanan “On a Quest for Combating Filter Bubbles and Misinformation,” and Christopher Re “Is Data Management the Beating Heart of AI Systems?” This will be an in-person conference held in Philadelphia, PA, and hybrid participation will be available via Zoom, Gather.town, and Slack, linked through the detailed program.
DIS, Jun 13 – Jul 17
The ACM SIGCHI Conference on Designing Interactive Systems (DIS) is the premier international arena where designers, artists, psychologists, user experience researchers, systems engineers, and many more, come together to debate and shape the future of interactive systems design and practice. The theme for DIS 2022 is “Digital Wellbeing” and the event will be held online. The theme responds to the need for designers and design researchers to not only design for wellbeing, but also to look after their own wellbeing and the people around them, through and with design. The result will be an opportunity to learn who we are and who we want to become. To achieve this, DIS 2022 will be a way to identify how to get there.
PLDI, June 15 – 17
PLDI is a premier forum for programming language research, broadly construed, including design, implementation, theory, applications, and performance. PLDI seeks outstanding research that extends and/or applies programming-language concepts to advance the field of computing. Keynote speakers are Emery Berger (University of Massachusetts Amherst) and Margo Seltzer (University of British Columbia). PLDI 2022 will be held in-person at the Catamaran Resort in San Diego, California, USA. Participation is also possible through an online component with livestreamed talks, Q&A and social interaction and events on Gather.town.
ISCA, Jun 18 – 22
The International Symposium on Computer Architecture (ISCA) is the premier forum for new ideas and research results in computer architecture. In 2022, the 49th edition of ISCA will be held in-person in New York City, New York, USA. Keynote speakers include Kenneth Brown on “Future Quantum Hardware,” and Krisztian Flautner on “Trust: The Final Frontier.”
STOC, Jun 20 – 24
The 54th ACM Symposium on Theory of Computing (STOC 2022) is sponsored by the ACM Special Interest Group on Algorithms and Computation Theory and will be held in-person in Rome, Italy. It will be part of a 5-day TheoryFest that will feature six workshops with introductory tutorials, technical talks and poster sessions, social events, and a special joint session with “Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei,” the oldest and most prestigious Italian academic institution, followed by a reception and a concert at the Academy historic site. Keynote speakers at this event include Patrick Hayden, Silvio Micali, Andrea Montanari, Giorgio Parisi, and Umesh Vazirani. In addition, Claire Matthieu will give a keynote talk on Friday, June 24.
WebSci, Jun 26 – 29
The 14th International ACM Conference on Web Science in 2022 is an interdisciplinary conference where a multitude of research disciplines converge with the purpose of creating greater insight into a complex global Web than the sum of their individual parts. We invite participation from diverse fields including computer and information sciences, communication, economics, informatics, law, linguistics, philosophy, political science, psychology, and sociology. Keynote speakers are Leila Zia, Head of Research at the Wikimedia Foundation, and M.C. Schraefel Professor of Computer Science and Human Performance. This event will be available in-person in Barcelona, Spain and online.
