[Haskell] Second MetaOCaml Workshop: Final CFP

[Kedar Swadi]

                 FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS (DEADLINE EXTENDED)
                 =========================================

                      The Second MetaOCaml Workshop

                    http://www.metaocaml.org/workshop05

                          To be held at GPCE'05 
                (Wednesday Sep 28, 2005, Tallinn, Estonia)


   MetaOCaml is a multi-stage extension of the widely used functional
   programming language OCaml. It provides a generic core for expressing
   macros, staging, and partial evaluation. As such, it also provides
   unique support for building aspect weavers in a statically typed
   setting. The workshop is a forum for discussing experience with
   using MetaOCaml as well as possible future developments for the
   language. The scope of the workshop includes all aspects of the
   design, semantics, theory, application, and implementation of
   MetaOCaml. The workshop welcomes reports on

    * novel applications (especially interpreters and aspect weavers),
    * extensions (macros, new language constructs, offshoring translations),
    * implementation techniques (compilation, RTCG), 
          support (debugging, profiling),
    * educational use,
    * basic theory (staging annotations, static typing, static analysis, 
          environment classifiers, etc).

   Each submission will be reviewed by at least three members of the
   Program Committee (PC). The PC will work to provide detailed and
   constructive comments to the authors. The workshop will only have
   informal proceedings, and is intended to be close in spirit to the
   Haskell, ML, and Scheme workshops.

   Based on author requests and PC decisions, authors will be given
   either 25-minute or 15-minute slots to present their ideas,
   either of which will be followed by 15 minutes of questions and
   discussion. At the end of the workshop, one hour will be allocated
   to an open discussion to review the outcomes of the meeting, and
   to discuss future challenges and directions for MetaOCaml.

Submission:
   For uniformity, authors are encouraged to use the latest ACM SIGS
   conference style file (option 1). We also request that submissions be
   limited to 12 pages in this style. We ask that papers be submitted
   in PDF or Postscript forms through the online submission page at 

          http://metaocaml.cs.rice.edu/submit.html.

Important Dates:
    Submission deadline (firm): June 24, 2005 until midnight GMT

   event is co-located with TFP 2005 and ICFP 2005, which already provides 
   housing and transportation information.
