LCTES @ PLDI 2026

27th ACM SIGPLAN/SIGBED International Conference on Languages, Compilers, and Tools for Embedded Systems (LCTES 2026)
co-located with PLDI 2026
15 – 16 June, 2026
Seoul, South Korea

LCTES provides a link between the programming languages and embedded systems engineering communities. Researchers and developers in these areas are addressing many similar problems but with different backgrounds and approaches. LCTES is intended to expose researchers and developers from either area to relevant work and interesting problems in the other area and provide a forum where they can interact. Research papers on innovative techniques are welcome, as well as experience papers on insights obtained by experimenting with real-world systems and applications.

We enthusiastically look forward to your submissions on programming languages, compilers, tools, theory, and architectures that help in overcoming technical challenges in embedded systems and their emerging applications.
