[Haskell] Reminder: Workshop on Coalgebra, Horn Clause Logic, and Types

[František Farka]

Reminder: Call for Papers, Presentations and Participation

Workshop on
  Coalgebra, Horn Clause Logic Programming and Types

28-29 November 2016, Edinburgh, UK
https://ff32.host.cs.st-andrews.ac.uk/coalpty16/


Abstract submission:    15 October, 2016
Registration deadline:  1 November, 2016

====================================================

Objectives and scope
-------------------

The workshop marks the end of the EPSRC Grant Coalgebraic Logic Programming for
Type Inference, by K. Komendantskaya and J. Power and will consist of two parts:

        Part 1 - Semantics: Lawvere theories and Coalgebra in Logic and
        Functional Programming

        Part 2 - Programming languages: Horn Clause Logic for Type Inference in
        Functional Languages and Beyond

We invite all colleagues working in related areas to present and share their
results. We envisage a friendly meeting with many stimulating discussions, and
therefore  welcome presentations of already published research as well as novel
results. Authors of original contributions will be invited to submit their
papers to EPTCS post-proceedings. We especially encourage early career
researchers to present and participate.

Venue 
-----

The workshop will be held at the International Center for Mathematical Sciences,
in Edinburgh city center, just 2 minutes walk from the Informatics Forum.


Invited speakers and tutorials
------------------------------

Theory:

* Logic programming: laxness and saturation
  John Power, University of Bath, UK

* Comodels and interaction
  Tarmo Uustalu, Tallinn University of Technology, Estonia.

* Refinement Types and Higher-Order Constrained Horn Clauses
  Steven Ramsay and Luke Ong, University of Oxford, UK

Proceedings publication
-----------------------

Presentations: We invite submission of 2-page extended abstracts via Easychair,
by the 15th October 2016. These will be subject to light review process.
Preliminary proceedings will be made available at the conference in electronic
form.

Post-proceedings: Authors presenting original work will be invited to submit
full papers to the post-proceedings of the workshop. The post-proceedings volume
will be published in Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science and
peer-reviewed according to EPTCS standards by the PC members.
