PACMPL |
Proceedings of the ACM on Programming Languages (PACMPL) is a Gold Open Access journal publishing research papers selected for presentation at major SIGPLAN conferences. Each issue of the journal is devoted to a particular subject area within programming languages and will be announced through publicized Calls for Papers. All accepted papers receive two rounds of reviewing and authors can expect initial decisions regarding submissions in under 3 months. PACMPL is committed to making high-quality peer-reviewed scientific research in programming languages free of restrictions on both access and use.

The Procedures of PACMPL describes how the journal operates.
The role of the advisory board is to guide and support the work of the editorial board and to provide institutional memory. The advisory board will consist of the following members:
- Chair of SIGPLAN
- Vice-Chair of SIGPLAN
- Past Chair of SIGPLAN
- One representative from each of the participating conferences' Steering Committees
- One member-at-large appointed by the ACM Publications Board
The SIGPLAN representatives serve for the same amount of time as their roles in SIGPLAN: three years. The representatives of the conferences Steering Committees and members-at-large will also serve for three years.
The role of the Editorial Board is to run the day-to-day operations of the journal. The editorial board will consist of (where N is the number of participating conferences):
- Editor-in-Chief: responsible for making sure the Journal information is always up-to-date, for coordination of the Editorial Board, for ensuring that the conferences conform to the editorial policies of the PACM series, and for planning longer-term editorial strategies. The Editor-in-Chief works directly with all the editors and advisors for proper operation of the journal, but does not play a direct role in paper selection. The Editor-in-Chief is appointed by the PACM Steering Committee in consultation with the journal's Advisory Board.
- N Associate Editors: current Program Committee Chairs, responsible for paper reviews and selection. The Associate Editors (aka Program Chairs) will continue to be selected by the conferences' Steering Committees.
- N Senior Editors: Associate Editors of the previous year, responsible for supporting the current Associate Editors
- N Assistant Editors: Program Committee Chairs of the following year, responsible for assisting the Associate Editors.
The Editor-in-Chief serves for a period of three years. All others have a tenure of one year in their roles. Roll-off dates from one role to another are the last days of the conferences.
