REBASE industry trackSPLASH/ISSTA 2026

The SPLASH/ISSTA 2026 REBASE industry track brings together industry practitioners and the academic community in the fields of programming languages and software engineering. We will have a mix of exciting keynote speakers, invited talks, and an open call for presentations. The goal is to exchange and learn about challenges in practical settings, novel ideas from research that could help solving those problems, celebrating past achievements in the two spheres, and discovering new opportunities for collaboration for the future. We are looking forward to seeing you in Oakland in 2026!

Conference days: Monday Oct 5 – Wednesday Oct 7

Accepted Papers

Call for Presentations

We invite practitioners and academics to submit talk proposals in the form of an extended abstract, slide deck, or a PDF or archived version of a (possibly existing) blog post. We are flexible about submission format and will aim to accept presentations that are interesting and relevant to the SPLASH/ISSTA audience.

Please submit your proposal using this Google Form: https://forms.gle/xALjBh9bWMYcBqC46

We welcome content from industrial and applied research settings, across all programming languages, and across software engineering techniques, tools, methodologies, processes, and practices applicable at any point in the software lifecycle.

Appropriate topics include, but are not limited to:

• Design and implementation of programming languages and DSLs, both public and internal
• Programming language extensions and new features
• Generative AI for software development
• Program synthesis
• Formal methods
• Static analysis
• Automated testing
• Compilers
• IDEs and other development environments
• Linters, bug detection, and fuzzing

Appropriate formats include, but are not limited to:

• Experience reports with deployed systems
• Empirical studies with industrial developers
• Traditional research papers

Talks will be approximately 30 minutes, followed by time for questions and answers. We will select talks through a lightweight reviewing process. Submissions will be evaluated based on clarity and quality of the proposal, relevance and interest to the SPLASH/ISSTA audience, and whether the work takes place in an industry or applied research setting.

Extended abstracts, talk proposals, and, if speakers wish, their slides, will be published on the REBASE website.
