The GMT offsets shown reflect the offsets at the moment of the conference.

Time Band

By setting a time band, the program will dim events that are outside this time window. This is useful for (virtual) conferences with a continuous program (with repeated sessions).
The time band will also limit the events that are included in the personal iCalendar subscription service.

Abstract

Programming language research benefits from the injection of new (and possibly ludicrous) ideas. In this extended abstract, we overview the approach taken in the design of the new parallel, object-oriented programming language Encore — inverting the defaults taken by standard (popular, modern, … ) programming languages that are wrong in the advent of multicore.
