CC 2025 - Call for Papers

The ACM SIGPLAN 2025 International Conference on Compiler Construction (CC 2025) will be held in Las Vegas, NV, USA from March 1-2, 2025, co-located with CGO, PPoPP and HPCA.

CC 2025 is interested in work on processing programs in the most general sense: analyzing, transforming or executing input programs that describe how a system operates, including traditional compiler construction as a special case.

Topics of Interest

Original contributions are solicited on topics which include, but are not limited to:

• Compilation and interpretation techniques, including program representation, analysis, and transformation; code generation, optimization, and synthesis; the verification thereof
• Run-time techniques, including memory management, virtual machines, and dynamic and just-in-time compilation
• Programming tools, including refactoring editors, checkers, verifiers, compilers, debuggers, and profilers
• Techniques, ranging from programming languages to micro-architectural support, for specific domains such as secure, parallel, distributed, embedded or mobile environments
• Design and implementation of novel language constructs, programming models, and domain-specific languages
• Implications to compiler construction from emerging or non-conventional applications (e.g., deep learning, quantum computing, DNA computing, etc.)

Call for Tool and Practical Experience Papers

This year, CC will offer a second category of papers called “Tools and Practical Experience”. Papers in this category must either give a clear account of a tool’s functionality or summarize a practical experience with realistic case studies.

Selection Criteria:

• Originality: Papers should present CC-related technologies applied to real-world problems with scope or characteristics that set them apart from previous solutions.
• Usability: The presented tools or compilers should have broad usage or applicability.
• Documentation: The tool or compiler should be presented on a website giving documentation and further information about the tool.
• Benchmark Repository: A suite of benchmarks for testing should be provided.
• Availability: The tool or compiler should be available for public use.
• Foundations: Papers should incorporate the principles underpinning Compiler Construction (CC).
• Artifact Evaluation: The submitted artifact must be functional and support the claims made in the paper. Submission of an artifact is mandatory for papers presenting a tool.

Tool and Practical Experience papers abide by the same limit of 10 pages in the ACM format, references excluded, and are not distinguished in the final proceedings. We encourage shorter submissions that give an account of how scientific ideas have been incorporated and used in practice.

Submission Guidelines

• Submission site: https://cc25.hotcrp.com
• All submissions must be made electronically through the conference submission website and include an abstract (100–400 words), author contact information, the full list of authors and their affiliations.
• Full paper submissions must be in PDF formatted printable on US letter size paper.
• All papers must be prepared in ACM Conference Format using the 2-column acmart format: use the options \\documentclass[sigplan,10pt,review,anonymous]{acmart} for Latex, and interim-layout.docx for Word. Important note: The Word template (interim-layout.docx) on the ACM website uses 9pt font; you need to increase it to 10pt.
• Papers should contain a maximum of 10 pages of text (in a typeface no smaller than 10 point) or figures, NOT INCLUDING references. There is no page limit for references and they must include the name of all authors (do not use et al.).
• Appendices are not allowed, but the authors may submit anonymous supplementary material, such as proofs, source code, or data sets; all supplementary material must be in PDF or ZIP format. Looking at supplementary material is at the discretion of the reviewers.
• Papers may be resubmitted to the submission site multiple times up until the deadline, but the last version submitted before the deadline will be the version reviewed. Papers that exceed the length requirement, that deviate from the expected format, or that are submitted late will be rejected.

CC follows ACM’s Copyright Policies. Prospective authors should adhere to SIGPLAN’s Republication Policy and to ACM’s Policy and Procedures on Plagiarism.

By submitting your article to an ACM Publication, you are hereby acknowledging that you and your co-authors are subject to all ACM Publications Policies, including ACM’s new Publications Policy on Research Involving Human Participants and Subjects. Alleged violations of this policy or any ACM Publications Policy will be investigated by ACM and may result in a full retraction of your paper, in addition to other potential penalties, as per ACM Publications Policy.

Please ensure that you and your co-authors obtain an ORCID ID, so you can complete the publishing process for your accepted paper.

CC uses a double-blind reviewing process. Authors will need to identify any potential conflicts of interest with PC, as defined in the SIGPLAN policy.

To facilitate the double-blind reviewing process, submissions (including supplementary material) should not reveal the identity of the authors in any way.
