ASPLOS

On behalf of the organizing committee, we welcome you to the 24th International Conference on Architectural Support for Programming Languages and Operating Systems (ASPLOS XXIV). The conference is located in Providence, Rhode Island, USA, a beautiful, walkable city that combines colonial period neighborhoods with fun architecture and excellent restaurants. Providence is also home to Brown University and the Rhode Island School of Design (both a short walk from the conference hotel).

This year's conference continues the tradition of ASPLOS, providing a strong program that features exciting progress in computer architecture, programming languages, and operating systems. It represents the outstanding work of the Program Committee Chairs, Emmett Witchel and Alvin Lebeck, as well as the great reviewing efforts put forth by the program committee members and external reviewers. Our thanks also go to the steering committee for their support.

An efficient and effective Organization Committee is essential to ASPLOS 2019. Much gratitude is due to Joshua San Miguel, who managed the whole finance flow. Our workshop co-chairs Ulya Karpuzcu, Paul Gratz, and Brian Greskamp organized an excellent set of interesting and attractive workshops and tutorials. Tali Moreshet and Christina Delimitrou took charge of the travel grants for the students and securing funding from the National Science Foundation to support the grants. Yufei Ding and Linhai Song did a great job in organizing the ACM Student Research Competition. Brandon Lucia and Tim Sherwood put together an amazing Wild and Crazy Ideas program. Many thanks to Rujia Wang for her great efforts in setting up the registration website. Thanks also to Abhishek Bhattacharjee and Guilherme Cox for organizing the online lightning talks. Jishen Zhao, Yiying Zhang, and Michel Kinsy did a wonderful job sending the word out and publicizing the calls for submissions and participation of ASPLOS and affiliated workshops and tutorials. Thank you to Xuehai Qian for developing and maintaining the conference website. Yungang Bao, Rudolf Eigenmann, Reetuparna Das, and Lawrence Rauchwerger used their connections to secure funding from our generous industrial sponsors. Our publications chair, Dimitra Papagiannopoulou worked diligently to collect and compile all the papers for the ASPLOS proceedings. Once again, we are co-located with VEE this year. We thank Jennifer Sartor, member of the VEE Organizing Committee, for working with us to make sure everything ran smoothly. Special thanks to Brown University for hosting the opening reception on Sunday evening. We send a big thank you to all the many student volunteers from Brown University who spent many hours assisting with registration and local arrangements.
