We encourage you to attend the first instance of the PLAS workshop!

The goal of PLAS 2006 is to provide a forum for researchers and
practitioners to exchange and understand ideas and to seed new
collaboration on the use of programming language and program analysis
techniques that improve the security of software systems.

The preliminary program can be found on the workshop web pages:
   http://www.cis.upenn.edu/~stevez/plas06.html

Workshop highlights:
  - An invited talk by David Wagner of U.C. Berkeley
    "Object Capabilities for Security"

  - 10 paper presentations, ranging in topics from authorization and
    monitoring to web vulnerability detection and information-flow
    policies.

  - A "madness" session, in which any interested participants have 5
    minutes to present provocative, preliminary, or unusual work.
    Student participation is especially encouraged.
