In this workshop we provide a hands-on introduction to the popular open source graph database Neo4j [1] through fixing a series of increasingly sophisticated, but broken, test cases each of which highlights an important graph modeling or API affordance.

Actor-based programs are not exempt from concurrency bugs. Inspiring contributions for debugging actor-based programs have been developed, however there is no approach that reliably identifies the root cause of complex concurrency bugs. Solving this problem can result in a reduction of the debugging time that programmers spend when developing concurrent applications. I propose a debugging approach based on the combination of offline debugging techniques that aim to help developers in the process of finding the root cause of concurrency bugs. I plan to evaluate this proposal through user studies and performance evaluation.

If you want to recognize speech or filter out spam emails, you will probably write a machine learning algorithm and will not try to write the whole program using a "traditional" software specification and implementation. There are many examples of successful machine learning solutions, but can we more broadly apply the techniques to most or all software problems, and for most or all programmers, from the novice in their first programming course to the seasoned professional?

The Second Workshop on Domain Specific Languages Design and Implementation (DSLDI 2014) is collocated with SPLASH 2014 conference and held in Portland, Oregon, USA on October 20th 2014. The goal of the DSLDI workshop is to bring together researchers and practitioners interested in sharing ideas on how Domain Specific Languages (DSLs) should be designed, implemented, supported by tools, and applied in realistic application contexts. More generally, we are interested in building a community that can drive forward the development of modern DSLs.

The first international workshop on Software Engineering for Parallel Systems (SEPS) will be held in Portland, Oregon, USA on October 21, 2014 and co-located with the ACM SIGPLAN conference on Systems, Programming, Languages and Applications: Software for Humanity (SPLASH 2014). The purpose of this workshop is to provide a stable forum for researchers and practitioners dealing with compelling challenges of the software development life cycle on modern parallel platforms. The increased complexity of parallel applications on modern parallel platforms (e.g. multicore, manycore, distributed or hybrid) requires more insight into development processes, and necessitates the use of advanced methods and techniques supporting developers in creating parallel applications or parallelizing and reengineering sequential legacy applications. We aim to advance the state of the art in different phases of parallel software development, covering software engineering aspects such as requirements engineering and software specification; design and implementation; program analysis, profiling and tuning; testing and debugging.

The Eclipse platform was originally designed for building an integrated development environment for object-oriented applications. Over the years it has developed into a vibrant ecosystem of platforms, toolkits, libraries, modeling frameworks, and tools that support various languages and programming styles. The sixth ETX workshop provides a platform for researchers and practitioners to transfer knowledge about the Eclipse Platform and exchange new ideas. It is held in Portland, OR on October 21, 2014 and is co-located with SPLASH 2014.

Why can it be so hard to extract the "truth" from the code, especially on important big-picture, architectural issues in large systems? Models designed for human understanding can display these things much more clearly, but how do you keep the models in sync with the code? Well, suppose the model was the code -- then you could have the best of both worlds! This is, indeed, possible, as is demonstrated using a combination of standard UML graphical class modeling and standard Alf action language programming, all based on a common, standard executable semantic foundation, new capabilities implemented in the Eclipse Papyrus UML tool. The result is a step toward a next generation agile programming environment.

How do software development practices differ from coast-to-coast? What should practitioners learn about the influences of geography -- and why is it important? Each community of software professionals has its own technical biases: preferred programming languages, software tools, design paradigms, software testing approaches, and techniques for collaboration within a working group. Conferences like SPLASH provide an opportunity to compare notes, to learn from the successes (and failures) of others, to learn about new technologies, and to learn about how other groups communicate and collaborate. This panel will focus on the diversity of software development practices in North America and the broader influences of geography.

Technical debt is an unavoidable part of software development in today's fast-paced market, but it is ignored by many of the people who should care about it most. In large systems, a portion of the accumulating technical debt is just "sloppy design" caused by schedule pressure and other project forces. But the most important part of technical debt is directly related to project size and data complexity. How much technical debt is about large development teams and geographical distribution? How do current "big data" techniques (Hadoop, NoSQL, parallel algorithms, MapReduce) relate to technical debt issues? This workshop explored strategies for understanding the impact of technical debt. If we believe that technical debt is an important issue in long-term software product development, do we have ways to keep the technical debt from causing development gridlock?

The proliferation of multicore processors warrants parallelism as the future of computing, increasing the demand to write parallel programs for increased application performance. Previous experience has shown that writing explicitly parallel programs is inherently more difficult than writing sequential programs. Programmers need parallel programming models, constructs, and tools that can simplify writing of parallel programs. In this poster, we present an innovative new tool, HJ-Viz, which generates interactive Computation Graphs (CGs) of parallel programs by analyzing event logs. The visual feedback is valuable for a programmer to efficiently optimize program logic and to eliminate the presence of potential bugs which may otherwise be difficult to detect. For example, in cases of deadlocks, HJ-Viz enables users to visualize and easily diagnose the deadlock scenario. Programmers can use the visualization of the CG by HJ-Viz to pinpoint potential sources of bugs and points of improvement for parallel performance. HJ-Viz highlights the program's critical paths and displays the amount of work performed in each step of computation based on the collected abstract execution metrics. Our event logging infrastructure also maintains precise source code locations for each event, allowing HJ-Viz to display the code involved in the creation of every node in the CG.
