                        CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

                               PPDP 2011
               13th International ACM SIGPLAN Symposium on
            Principles and Practice of Declarative Programming
             http://www-ps.informatik.uni-kiel.de/ppdp11/
                  July 20-22, 2011, Odense, Denmark

                  In cooperation with ACM SIGPLAN
           Co-located with LOPSTR 2011, WFLP 2011, and AAIP 2011
======================================================================

ONLINE REGISTRATION IS OPEN, EARLY REGISTRATION DEADLINE: May 30, 2011

PPDP 2011 aims to provide a forum that brings together researchers
from the declarative programming communities, including those working
in the logic, constraint and functional programming paradigms, but
also embracing a variety of other paradigms such as visual
programming, executable specification languages, database languages,
AI languages and knowledge representation languages used, for example,
in the semantic web. The goal is to stimulate research in the use of
logical formalisms and methods for specifying, performing, and
analyzing computations, including mechanisms for mobility, modularity,
concurrency, object-orientation, security, and static analysis.
