Programming Languages and Systems

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th Asian Symposium on Programming Languages and Systems, APLAS 2013, held in Melbourne, Australia, in December 2013. The 20 regular papers presented together with the abstracts of 3 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 57 submissions. The papers cover a variety of foundational and practical issues in programming languages and systems.
