EARLY REGISTRATION DEADLINE:

   May 30, 2011  (next Monday!)

The aim of the LOPSTR series is to stimulate and promote
international research and collaboration on logic-based program
development. LOPSTR is open to contributions in logic-based
program development in any language paradigm. LOPSTR has a
reputation for being a lively, friendly forum for presenting
and discussing work in progress. Formal proceedings are
produced only after the symposium so that authors can
incorporate this feedback in the published papers.
