                      Co-located with ACM POPL'14

You are cordially invited to the Fifteenth International Symposium on
Practical Aspects of Declarative Languages that will be held on
January 20-21, 2014 (right before POPL). The conference will present
accepted papers spanning a range of topics related to logic and
functional programming, including language support for parallelism and
GPUs, constructs and techniques for modularity and extensibility, and
applications of declarative programming to document processing and DNA
simulation. The conference program also includes invited talks by
Molham Aref of LogicBlox and David Walker of Princeton, and a tutorial
on minKanren by Daniel P. Friedman of Indiana University and William
E. Byrd of the University of Utah.

Please note that the deadline for early registration is fast
approaching (Dec 31).  You can register by visiting
