Proceedings 16th International Workshop on Programming Language Approaches to Concurrency and Communication-cEntric Software

Abstract

This volume contains the proceedings of PLACES 2025, the 16th edition of the Workshop on Programming Language Approaches to Concurrency and Communication-cEntric Software. The workshop is scheduled to take place in Hamilton, Canada, on May 4, 2025, as a satellite event of ETAPS, the European Joint Conferences on Theory and Practice of Software. PLACES offers a forum for exchanging new ideas on how to address the challenges of concurrent and distributed programming and how to improve the foundations of modern and future computer applications. PLACES welcomes researchers from various fields, and its topics include the design of new programming languages, models for concurrent and distributed systems, type systems, program verification, and applications in various areas (e.g., microservices, sensor networks, blockchains, event processing, business process management).
