Journal of Universal Computer Science (J.UCS) Special Issue
======================================================================

David Turner’s Festschrift
On his 70th Birthday
Functional Programming: Past, Present, and Future

===================================================================
This special issue of the JUCS celebrates the 70th Birthday of David
Turner, an inspiring scientist and person.

David Turner´s contributions to programming language design and
implementation were seminal. He is best known for his pioneering work in combinator graph
reduction and for designing and implementing an influential series of pure,
non-strict, functional programming languages: SASL, KRC and Miranda.  David invented or
co-invented many of the basic techniques of lazy functional programming and his ideas and
notations have passed into later languages such as Haskell.

This Festschrift volume intends to publish original papers which address
any area of functional programming or of the design and implementation of functional
languages.

======================================================================
Paper Submission and Evaluation Procedure
Authors are invited to submit original and unpublished papers in all areas
of functional programming.
