ANNOUNCE: lens-family 2.0.0 anniversary edition!
by roconnor＠theorem.ca 20 Jul '19

20 Jul '19

In celebration of the 10th anniversary of Twan van Laarhoven's seminal blog post ``CPS based functional references''[1], I am releasing version 2.0 of lens-family[2] and lens-family-core[3] packages. This new release continues to explore the design of Van Laarhoven style optics with new support for adapters, grates, grids[4], and prisms. To bring support to these new optics necessarily means moving a little further away from syntactic compatibility with Kmett's lens library. In particular, lens-family's 'under' is unrelated to Kmett's lens library's 'under' combinator. Nonetheless the 'under' combinator plays a crucial role in lens-family as a dual to the 'over' combinator and this naming is hard to resist despite the conflict. This new version comes with some minor incompatibilities with the version 1.2 library that may require user updates. See <https://hackage.haskell.org/package/lens-family-2.0.0/changelog>. [1]<https://www.twanvl.nl/blog/haskell/cps-functional-references> [2]<https://hackage.haskell.org/package/lens-family-2.0.0> [3]<https://hackage.haskell.org/package/lens-family-core-2.0.0> [4]A grid is an optic that is both a grate and a traversal. -- Russell O'Connor <http://r6.ca/>

[CC2020] Call for Papers for the ACM SIGPLAN 2020 International Conference on Compiler Construction
by Gabriel Rodríguez Álvarez 18 Jul '19

18 Jul '19

ACM SIGPLAN 2020 International Conference on Compiler Construction (CC'20) co-located with CGO, PPoPP and HPCA San Diego, CA, USA February 22 - 23, 2020 https://cc-conference.github.io The ACM SIGPLAN 2020 International Conference on Compiler Construction (CC 2020) is interested in work on processing programs in the most general sense: analyzing, transforming or executing input programs that describe how a system operates, including traditional compiler construction as a special case. Original contributions are solicited on the topics of interest which include, but are not limited to: - Compilation and interpretation techniques, including program representation, analysis, and transformation; code generation, optimization, and synthesis; the verification thereof - Run-time techniques, including memory management, virtual machines, and dynamic and just-in-time compilation - Programming tools, including refactoring editors, checkers, verifiers, compilers, debuggers, and profilers - Techniques for specific domains, such as secure, parallel, distributed, embedded or mobile environments - Design and implementation of novel language constructs, programming models, and domain-specific languages CC 2020 is the 29th edition of the conference. From this year onwards, CC is an ACM SIGPLAN conference and will implement guidelines and procedures recommended by SIGPLAN https://www.sigplan.org. ================================================================================================= To subscribe to the CC announce mailing list, see cc_conference_announce(a)googlegroups.com To subscribe to the CC announce Twitter account, see @cc2020conf (https://twitter.com/cc2020conf) ======================================================================================= IMPORTANT DATES Abstract Submission: 23 October 2019 Paper Submission : 30 October 2019 Rebuttal : 4-6 December 2019 Artifact Submission: 13 December 2019 Author Notification: 24 December 2019 Final papers due : 15 January 2020 Conference : 22–23 February 2020 Authors are encouraged to submit their artifacts for the Artifact Evaluation (AE). The Artifact Evaluation process is run by a separate committee whose task is to assess how the artifacts support the work described in the papers. To ease the organization of the AE committee, we kindly ask authors to submit their artifact at the latest 10 days after the rebuttal. Papers that go through the Artifact Evaluation process successfully will receive a seal of approval printed on the papers themselves. Additional information will be made available on the CC AE web page.

Benefits and use cases for strong mobility in presence of closure serialization
by Станислав Черничкин 17 Jul '19

17 Jul '19

Benefits and use cases for strong mobility in presence of closure serialization I read a paper about strong mobility in Haskell http://www.dcs.gla.ac.uk/~trinder/papers/strongm.pdf and I wondering what benefits it gives in presence of closure serialization? I guess for some languages strong mobility could be only way to transfer execution state of program, e.g. [Mobile Pascal;)] program Test; var a: Integer; begin readln(a); // acquiring on current host moveTo("anotherHost"); // transfering state and terminating writeln(a); // printing on another host end. but in Haskell same program can be written just using rfork :: Host -> IO () -> IO (): main = do a <- readLn rfork AnotherHost $ do print a The difference comparing to moveTo :: Host -> IO () version is purely syntactic: main = do a <- readLn moveTo AnotherHost print a -- Sincerely, Stanislav Chernichkin.

ANN: New York Haskell CoHack, August 3
by Chris Smith 15 Jul '19

15 Jul '19

If you're not in New York, feel free to stop reading. Any Haskellers in the New York area, you're invited to the monthly CoHack on August 3rd, at the Microsoft Reactor space near Times Square. This is an informal collaboration between Haskellers working on a variety of projects. There's usually a good mix of everything from new Haskell programmers to seasoned veterans We'll have food and internet and hopefully collaborators, whether it's a long-standing project or a one-off weekend hack. Details at https://www.meetup.com/NY-Haskell/events/261277328/ I hope to see you there. There will also be lightning talks at the event, if you have anything you'd like to share. Signups will be same-day, and lightning talks are 10 minutes long, including setup and questions. Thanks, Chris
