[Pavan Balaji]

We would like to remind you all that the P2S2 Workshop deadline is
coming up in a few days (May 21st). We look forward to receiving paper
submissions from you.

Please note in the CFP below that the actual workshop is moved from
the first day of the ICPP conference (Sep. 8th) to the last day
(Sep. 12th), so that it does not conflict with other conferences in
the same area.

This announcement list is for people who are interested in the P2S2
workshop. If you are not interested in these announcements,
information on how to unsubscribe from this list is available at the
