            The First Asian Symposium on
     Programming Languages and Systems (APLAS03)
         URL:  http://www.jaist.ac.jp/aplas/
  
        Beijing, China.  October 27-29, 2003
        (Submission deadline: May 27, 2003)

Sponsored by the Asian Association for Foundations of Software (AAFS)
and Beihang University (Beijing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics).

DESCRIPTION:
APLAS aims at stimulating programming language research by providing
a forum for the presentation of recent results and the exchange of
ideas and experience in topics concerned with programming
languages and systems. APLAS is based in Asia, but intends to be an
international forum that serves the worldwide programming languages
community.

The APLAS series is sponsored by the Asian Association for Foundation
of Software (AAFS), which has recently been founded by Asian
researchers in cooperation with many researchers from Europe and the
USA. APLAS has been discussed and prepared through informal workshops
held in Singapore (2000), Daejeon (2001), and Shanghai (2002). 
APLAS03 will be the first formal symposium in the series.

TOPICS:
The symposium is devoted to foundational issues in programming
languages and systems, covering the following areas:
 * semantics and theoretical foundations
 * type systems and language design
 * compilers and implementation
 * program analysis and security
 * program transformation and calculation
 * concurrency
