Workshop Scope

The goal of PASTE is to bring together members of the program analysis, software tools, and software engineering communities to focus on applications of program analysis techniques in software tools.

PASTE will provide a forum for the presentation of exciting new results in areas including (but not limited to):

	Program analysis for program understanding, debugging, testing, and reverse engineering
	User interfaces for software tools and software visualization
	Applications of program slicing and model checking
	Tradeoffs between static and dynamic analysis
	Issues in scaling analyses and user interfaces to deal with large systems

Program

PASTE will be a true workshop, with a duration of two full days (18 and 19 June). The program will include:

	Presentation of refereed papers
	Invited talks from the following speakers:
	William Griswold (UC San Diego) Making Slicing Practical: The Final Mile (abstract, talk: html, powerpoint) Michael Hind (IBM T.J. Watson Research Center) Pointer Analysis: Haven't We Solved This Problem Yet? (abstract, talk) Gerard Holzmann (Bell Labs) Economics of Software Verification (abstract, talk) Jens Palsberg (Purdue University) Type-Based Analysis and Applications (abstract, talk and related links)
	Ample time for general discussion and debate

Workshop Venue and Registration

PASTE will be held on 18-19 June 2001 in Snowbird, Utah USA, immediately prior to the ACM SIGPLAN Conference on Programming Language Design and Implementation (PLDI).

The PASTE registration fee is $100 for ACM or SIGPLAN members, $110 for non-members, and $70 for students (with identification). The workshop fee includes a continental breakfast, breaks, lunch each day, and a reception on the evening of 18 June.

The PASTE organizers are grateful for the financial support of IBM Research (whose funding supports one lunch and student registration subsidies) and Microsoft (whose funding supports the evening reception).
