<br>
This special issue of the Journal of Logical and Algebraic Methods
in Programming (JLAMP) is devoted to the topics of the 9th
International Workshop on Programming Language Approaches to
Concurrency and Communication-cEntric Software (PLACES 2016), which
took place in April 2016 in Eindhoven as part of ETAPS. This is
however an *open call* for papers, therefore both participants of
the workshop and other authors are encouraged to submit their
contributions.<br>

Themes:<br>
<br>
Modern hardware platforms, from the very small to the very large,
increasingly provide parallel computing resources for applications
to maximise performance. Many applications therefore need to make
effective use of tens, hundreds, and even thousands of compute
nodes. Computation in such systems is thus inherently concurrent and
communication centric. Effectively programming such applications is
challenging; performance, correctness, and scalability are difficult
to achieve. <br>
<br>
<meta charset="utf-8">
Submissions are invited in the area of programming language
approaches to concurrency, communication and distribution, ranging
from foundational issues, through language implementations, to
applications (such as scientific computing) and case studies. Please
visit the above website for more detailed topics of interest.<br>
<br>
Submission:<br>
<br>
We expect original articles (roughly 20-30 pages) that present
high-quality contributions that have not been previously published
in another journal and that must not be simultaneously submitted for
publication elsewhere. Longer papers will be considered if there is
a clear justification for why additional pages are necessary;
authors should contact the guest editors to discuss this. Each paper
will undergo a thorough evaluation by at least two reviewers. The
authors will have about one month to incorporate the comments of the
reviewers and submit a revised version of their papers, which will
be evaluated again by the reviewers to make a final decision.<br>
<meta charset="utf-8">
Contributions should be typeset in PDF format and must comply with
JLAMP's author guidelines (see website for details). <br>
<br>
Submission deadline: 29th July 2016<br>
Final decision due in: Jan 2017 (planned)<br>
