Welcome to PLDI 2020, the 41st ACM SIGPLAN Conference on Programming Language Design and Implementation. We originally planned to hold the conference in London, United Kingdom, June 15-20. But due to the worldwide outbreak of COVID-19, this year's meeting is being held virtually instead. The table of contents in the proceedings reflects our original organization of papers into sessions, according to topic.
