ACM SIGPLAN 2006 Haskell Workshop
Call for Papers
Portland, Oregon
17 September, 2006
The Haskell Workshop 2006 will be part of the 2006 International
Conference on Functional Programming (ICFP) as an associated, ACM
SIGPLAN sponsored workshop. Previous Haskell Workshops have been held
in La Jolla (1995), Amsterdam (1997), Paris (1999), Montreal (2000),
Firenze (2001), Pittsburgh (2002), Uppsala (2003), Snowbird (2004),
and Tallinn (2005).
Topics
The purpose of the Haskell Workshop is to discuss experience with
Haskell, and possible future developments for the language. The scope
of the workshop includes all aspects of the design, semantics, theory,
application, implementation, and teaching of Haskell. Topics of
interest include, but are not limited to, the following:
* Language Design, with a focus on possible extensions and
modifications of Haskell as well as critical discussions of the
status quo;
* Theory, in the form of a formal treatment of the semantics of the
present language or future extensions, type systems, and
foundations for program analysis and transformation;
* Implementations, including program analysis and transformation,
static and dynamic compilation for sequential, parallel, and
distributed architectures, memory management as well as foreign
function and component interfaces;
* Tools, in the form of profilers, tracers, debuggers,
pre-processors, and so forth;
* Applications, Practice, and Experience with Haskell for scientific
and symbolic computing, database, multimedia and Web applications,
and so forth as well as general experience with Haskell in
education and industry;
* Functional Pearls being elegant, instructive examples of using
Haskell.
Papers in the latter two categories need not necessarily report
original research results; they may instead, for example, report
practical experience that will be useful to others, re-usable
programming idioms, or elegant new ways of approaching a problem. The
key criterion for such a paper is that it makes a contribution from
which other practitioners can benefit. It is not enough simply to
describe a program!
Submission details
Submission deadline: Friday, 2 June 2006 (23:00 Samoa standard time, UTC -11)
Notification: Monday, 3 July 2006
Authors should send their papers
to Andres Loeh (haskell-workshop at andres-loeh.de) by e-mail. Submitted
papers should be in (postscript or) portable document format,
formatted using the ACM SIGPLAN style guidelines. Papers should not
exceed 12 pages in length.
Accepted papers will be published by the ACM and will appear in the
ACM Digital Library.
If there is sufficient demand, we will try to organise a time slot for
system or tool demonstrations. If you are interested in demonstrating
a Haskell related tool or application, please send a brief demo
proposal to Andres Loeh (haskell-workshop at andres-loeh.de).
