The NWPT series of annual workshops is a forum bringing together programming 
theorists from the Nordic and Baltic countries (but also from elsewhere).

The 28th edition of the Nordic Workshop on Programming Theory will be 
hosted by Department of Computer Science at Aalborg University and 
will take place in the middle of one of the most beautiful nature 
resources in North Jutland, about 20 minutes by train from Aalborg city 
center. The workshop, accomodation and social activities will all be hosted 
at the hotel Rold Storkro located at the Rold Forest.

Work in progress as well as abstracts of manuscripts submitted for formal 
publication elsewhere are welcome.

The abstracts of the accepted contributions will be available electronically 
at the workshop. We have arranged a special issue of the Journal of 
Logical and Algebraic Methods in Programming (JLAMP) devoted to the best
