                          CALL FOR PAPERS!!!

                    Eighth International Symposium on
             Practical Aspects of Declarative Languages 2006
                     (PADL '06)

          http://www.cs.brown.edu/people/pvh/PADL06.html

                       Charleston Place Hotel
                     Charleston, South Carolina
               January 9-10

                     Co-located with ACM POPL'06

Declarative languages build on sound theoretical bases to provide attractive
frameworks for application development. These languages have been 
successfully
applied to vastly different real-world situations, ranging from data 
base management
to active networks to software engineering to decision support systems.

New developments in theory and implementation have opened up new 
application areas.
At the same time, applications of declarative languages to novel 
problems raises
numerous interesting research issues. Well-known questions include 
designing for
scalability, language extensions for application deployment, and programming
environments. Thus, applications drive the progress in the theory and 
implementation
of declarative systems, and benefit from this progress as well.

PADL is a forum for researchers and practioners to present original work 
emphasizing
novel applications and implementation techniques for all forms of 
declarative concepts,
including, functional, logic, constraints, etc. Topics of interest include:

 * innovative applications of declarative languages;
 * declarative domain-specific languages and applications;
 * practical applications of theoretical results;
 * new language developments & their impact on applications;
 * evaluation of implementation techniques on practical applications;
 * novel uses of declarative languages in the classroom; and
 * practical experiences

PADL 06 welcomes new ideas and approaches pertaining to applications and 
implementation
of declarative languages, and is not limited to the scope of the past 
five PADL symposia.

PADL 06 will be co-located with the ACM POPL.

IMPORTANT DATES AND SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

      Paper Submission:      August 20, 2005
      Notification:          September 30, 2005

      Symposium:             January 9-10, 2005

      Authors should submit an electronic copy of the full paper (written in
      English) in Postscript (Level 2) or PDF. Papers must be no longer 
than 15
      pages, written in 11-point font and with single spacing. Since the 
final
      proceedings will be published as Lecture Notes in Computer Science 
by Springer
      Verlag, authors are strongly encouraged to use the LNCS paper 
formatting
      guidelines for their submission.

      Each submission must include on its first page the paper title; 
authors and
      their affiliations; contact author's email and postal addresses, 
telephone and
      fax numbers, abstract, and three to four keywords. The keywords 
will be used to
      assist us in selecting appropriate reviewers for the paper. If 
electronic submission
      is impossible, please contact the program chair for information on 
how to submit
      hard copies.


MOST PRACTICAL PAPER AWARD

      The Most Practical Paper award will be given to the submission 
that is judged
      by the programm committee to be the best in terms of practicality, 
originality,
      and clarity of presentation. The program committee may choose not 
to make an
      award; or may make multiple awards.
