SPLASH 2027 — ACM SIGPLAN Conference on Systems, Programming, Languages, and Applications: Software for Humanity
by ACM SIGPLAN
The ACM SIGPLAN venue where the languages, type systems and analyses that will police AI-generated code get argued out
About This Event
SPLASH 2027, the ACM SIGPLAN conference on Systems, Programming, Languages, and Applications: Software for Humanity, runs 10-15 October 2027 at the Diplomat Hotel Prague in Prague, Czechia. Its main track is OOPSLA, whose call welcomes all practical and theoretical investigations of programming systems, languages and environments across the whole software lifecycle, from requirements through maintenance. OOPSLA reviews in two rounds — round one closes 14 October 2026 and round two 7 April 2027 — each with an author-response period, a revision submission and a final notification, so a paper that is not accepted outright can still be revised into the same proceedings. Review is double-blind with three or more reviewers per submission. MPLR 2027 is listed as a co-located conference, and the SPLASH umbrella has traditionally carried Onward!, DLS, GPCE and SLE alongside OOPSLA. Filip Křikava (Czech Technical University in Prague) is general chair; Nadia Polikarpova (UC San Diego) and Ilya Sergey (National University of Singapore) co-chair the OOPSLA review committee.

- ✓PhD students
Why Attend
SPLASH is where the tooling that will eventually police AI-generated code is argued out, three to five years before a vendor packages it: type systems, static analysis, program synthesis and runtime verification. A platform or developer-productivity leader who reads the OOPSLA programme gets an early and honest read on which correctness guarantees for machine-written code are real and which are marketing, plus direct access to the researchers and compiler teams building them. For an industrial research group the published two-round calendar also says exactly when to aim a submission, and the Prague venue keeps the whole conference on one site.
Event Features
- ✓OOPSLA main track — the flagship programme, reviewed in two rounds
- ✓Double-blind review with three or more reviewers per submission
- ✓Author response periods: 1-5 December 2026 (round 1) and 15-19 June 2027 (round 2)
- ✓Round-one revision cycle: revised papers due 22 January 2027, final notification 12 February 2027
- ✓MPLR 2027 co-located conference
- ✓Onward!, DLS, GPCE and SLE — the symposia the SPLASH umbrella traditionally carries
What Makes This Unique
- ★OOPSLA's two-round model with a revision cycle — a paper that misses in round one can be revised and still appear in the same proceedings, which is rare among top-tier venues
- ★One conference deliberately mixing theory and practice under the 'Software for Humanity' framing instead of splitting them into separate events
- ★The SPLASH umbrella co-locates several distinct symposia — historically Onward!, DLS, GPCE and SLE per ACM SIGPLAN — so one trip covers several communities
- ★MPLR 2027 is listed as co-located, adding managed-language runtime work to the same week
