[Haskell] Call for Papers DBPL 2017

[Alexander Alexandrov]

The 16th International Symposium on Database Programming Languages (DBPL
2017)
==============================================================================

The 16th International Symposium on Database Programming Languages (DBPL
2017)
will be held in conjunction with VLDB 2017 on September 1st, 2017 in
Munich,
Germany.

General Information
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DBPL is a biennial symposium that aims to foster exchange of ideas and
discussion about current trends and open problems between the data
management
and the programming languages research communities. For over 30 years, DBPL
has established itself as the principal venue for publishing and discussing
new ideas and problems at the intersection of data management and
programming
languages. Many key contributions relevant to the formal foundations,
design,
implementation, and evaluation of query languages (e.g., for
object-oriented,
nested, or semi-structured data) were first announced at DBPL.

As an established destination for such new ideas, DBPL aims to solicit
submissions from researchers in databases, programming languages or any
other
community interested in the design, implementation or foundations of
languages
and systems for data-centric computation. Our main goal is to provide an
inter-disciplinary venue where current trends, open problems, as well as
insights about research methodology for potential solutions can be shared
and
discussed between the two communities.

  Data-Centric Batch or Stream Processing
- Data-Centric Language Design
- Data-Centric Language Semantics
- Data-Centric Language Optimizations and Transformations
- Data-Centric Language Compilation to Emerging Hardware or
  Software Platforms
- Data Integration, Exchange, and Interoperability
- Declarative Data Centers
- Emerging and Nontraditional Data Models
- Language-Based Security in Data Management
- Language-Integrated Query Mechanisms
- Managing Uncertain and Imprecise Information
- Metaprogramming and Heterogeneous Staged Computation
- Programming Language Support for Databases
- Schema Mapping and Metadata Management
- Semantics and Verification of Database Systems
- Validation, Type-checking

Author Guidelines
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Prospective authors are invited to submit full papers in English presenting
original research. Submitted papers must be unpublished and not submitted
for publication elsewhere. Submissions should be no more than 10 pages long
using the [ACM Standard] proceedings template.

Each submission should begin with a succinct statement of the problem and a
summary of the main results. Authors may provide more details to
substantiate
the main claims of the paper by including a clearly marked appendix at the
end of the submission, which is not included in the page limit and is read
at
the discretion of the committee.

At least one author of each accepted paper must attend the symposium to
present their work.

Short papers of at most 4 pages in the [ACM Standard] proceedings template
describing work in progress, demos, research challenges or visions are also
welcome. Accepted short papers may be included or excluded from the formal
proceedings, whichever the author(s) prefer.

Full and short papers are both due on the deadline, May 12, 2017.
Abstracts of full papers should be submitted by May 5th to aid reviewer
selection.
