Objective and Motivation
A pattern is a solution to a recurring problem in a certain context where numerous forces are felt. Patterns enable people to share experience-based proven solutions in designing products, managing processes, projects and organizations, and communicating with each other more efficiently and effectively. Asian Conference on Pattern Languages of Programs (AsianPLoP) will take place for the sixth time, as a premier event for pattern authors and users to get together, discuss and learn more about patterns and pattern languages in the Asia region as well as other regions. The purpose of AsianPLoP is to promote development of patterns, pattern languages, technologies and experiences of patterns primarily about software as well as other domains.
AsianPLoP 2017 solicits paper submissions that are written in any one the three languages: English, Chinese and Japanese. Papers in each of the three languages will have their own sessions. Both practitioners from the industry and academics are invited to submit their papers. The conference solicits the papers for the following different sessions. Details can be found in Topics and Submission.
- Writers’ Workshop – papers that document patterns and pattern languages will be workshopped in the traditional PLoP format. Papers that explore theories, techniques, applications, tools and case studies in patterns are also welcome.
- Writing Group – papers of newcomers who want to learn how to better elaborate an idea intended to evolve to a pattern or pattern language. This is more like a hands-on tutorial on writing patterns.

- requirements patterns,
- analysis patterns,
- architecture patterns,
- design patterns,
- programming and refactoring patterns,

Submission
After submission, papers will be screened by the program committee to be accepted for the shepherding process. Authors of each accepted paper will be assigned a shepherd who helps the authors to improve the content and style of the paper. At the end of the shepherding process, papers will be reviewed again to be accepted into the Writers’ Workshops of the conference. More information about Writers’ Workshops can be found here.
All authors should submit through EasyChair submission system. If you already have an EasyChair account from another conference, you can use that account to submit a paper to AsianPLoP 2017. If you have not used EasyChair Conference System before, click “sign up for an account” for instructions on how to setup an EasyChair account.
Paper style
Paper submissions may include short papers (e.g. 1 page), containing one or more patterns, longer pattern languages or sequences (e.g. 10 pages), or work-in-progress papers willing to get an in-depth shepherding by an experienced pattern author at the conference.
AsianPLoP 2017 solicit submissions in English, Chinese, and Japanese.
There is no specific paper format; however the ACM conference format is recommended.
Publication
Accepted papers of the workshop will be published in the workshop on-line proceedings. Post-proceedings will be published by SEAT (TBD). Please note that at least one of the authors of each accepted paper must register as a full participant of the conference to have the paper published in the conference on-line proceedings and the post-proceedings.
Papers discussed at Writers Workshop qualify for submission to the journal “TPLoP – Transactions on Pattern Languages of Programming” published by Springer.
