The submission deadline for the Haskell Workshop 2003 is only a week
away.
ACM SIGPLAN 2003 Haskell Workshop
Uppsala, Sweden, August 28, 2003
http://www.functional-programming.org/HaskellWorkshop/cfp03.html
Call For Papers
The Haskell Workshop forms part of the PLI 2003 colloquium on
Principles,
Logics, and Implementations of high-level programming languages, which
comprises the ICFP and PPDP conferences as well as associated
workshops. Previous Haskell Workshops have been held in La Jolla
(1995),
Amsterdam (1997), Paris (1999), Montreal (2000), Firenze (2001), and
Pittsburgh (2002).
********************* Deadlines *********************
Deadline for submission: May 22, 2003
Notification of acceptance: June 23, 2003
Final submission due: July 3, 2003
Haskell Workshop: August 28, 2003
********************* Topics *********************
The purpose of the Haskell Workshop is to discuss experience with
Haskell,
and possible future developments for the language. The scope of the
workshop includes all aspects of the design, semantics, theory,
application,
implementation, and teaching of Haskell. Topics of interest include,
but
are not limited to, the following:
Language Design
with a focus on possible extensions and modifications of Haskell as
well as critical discussions of the status quo;
Theory
in the form of a formal treatment of the semantics of the present
language
or future extensions, type systems, and foundations for program
analysis
and transformation;
Implementation Techniques
including program analysis and transformation, static and dynamic
compilation for sequential, parallel, and distributed architectures,
memory management as well as foreign function and component
interfaces;
Tool Support
in the form of profilers, tracers, debuggers, pre-processors, and so
forth;
Applications, Practice, and Experience
with Haskell for scientific and symbolic computing, database,
multimedia
and Web applications, and so forth as well as general experience
with
Haskell in education and industry;
Functional Pearls
being elegant, instructive examples of using Haskell.
Following the scheme adopted by ICFP 2003, papers in the latter two
categories need not necessarily report original research results; they
may
instead, for example, report practical experience that will be useful to
others, re-usable programming idioms, or elegant new ways of
approaching a
problem. The key criterion for such a paper is that it makes a
contribution
from which other practitioners can benefit. It is not enough simply to
describe a program!
********************* Submissions *********************
Authors should submit papers in postscript format, formatted for A4
paper,
to Johan Jeuring johanj@cs.uu.nl by 22th May 2003. The
length should be restricted to the equivalent of 5000 words (which is
approximately 12 pages in ACM format). Accepted papers will be
available in
the form of a technical report of the Utrecht University or an
equivalent format in time for the workshop. In addition, the papers
will be
published by the ACM and will appear in the ACM Digital Library.
If there is sufficient demand, we will try to organise facilities for
system
demonstrations during lunch and coffee breaks. If you are interested in
demonstrating an application or tool written in Haskell, please contact
Johan Jeuring (johanj@cs.uu.nl).
