It promotes the cross-fertilizing exchange of ideas and experiences among researchers and students from the different communities interested in the foundations, applications, and combinations of high-level declarative programming languages and related areas. The previous WFLP editions are: WFLP 2009 (Brasilia, Brazil), WFLP 2008 (Siena, Italy), WFLP 2007 (Paris, France), WFLP 2006 (Madrid, Spain), WCFLP 2005 (Tallinn, Estonia), WFLP 2004 (Aachen, Germany), WFLP 2003 (Valencia, Spain), WFLP 2002 (Grado, Italy), WFLP 2001 (Kiel, Germany), WFLP 2000 (Benicassim, Spain), WFLP'99 (Grenoble, France), WFLP'98 (Bad Honnef, Germany), WFLP'97 (Schwarzenberg, Germany), WFLP'96 (Marburg, Germany), WFLP'95 (Schwarzenberg, Germany), WFLP'94 (Schwarzenberg, Germany), WFLP'93 (Rattenberg, Germany), and WFLP'92 (Karlsruhe, Germany). LOCATION WFLP 2010 will be held on January 17, 2010 in Madrid, Spain, colocated with the 37th ACM SIGACT-SIGPLAN Symposium on Principles of Programming Languages (POPL 2010). WFLP 2010 solicits papers in all areas of functional and (constraint) logic programming, including but not limited to: * Foundations: formal semantics, logic variables, binding and abstract syntax, rewriting and narrowing, unification, constraint solving, dynamics, type theory, meta-theory, effects, etc. * Language Design: security, services, modules, type systems, multi-paradigm languages, concurrency and distribution, objects, libraries, generic programming, interoperability, etc. * Implementation: abstract machines, parallelism, compile-time and run-time optimizations, foreign-language interfaces, memory management, multi-threading, exploiting parallel hardware, etc. * Transformation and Analysis: abstract interpretation, specialization, partial evaluation, program transformation, program calculation, program proof, meta-programming, generative programming, etc. * Software Development: algorithms, data structures, design patterns, components and composition, specification, proof assistants, verification and validation, model checking, debugging, testing, profiling, tracing, etc. * Paradigm Integration: integration of declarative programming with other paradigms or features such as imperative, object-oriented, aspect-oriented, concurrent, real-time programming, event-driven architectures, etc. * Applications: education, industry, commercial uses, domain-specific languages, visual/graphical user interfaces, embedded systems, WWW applications, XML processing, artificial intelligence, knowledge representation and machine learning, deductive databases, advanced programming environments and tools, etc. SUBMISSIONS and PROCEEDINGS Authors are invited to submit papers presenting original unpublished work. Papers must be at most 15 pages long. Exceptionally, authors may surpass the page limit by providing well-marked appendices intended as reviewing aids. Appendices will not appear in the final publication. Submission categories include regular research papers, system descriptions, and short papers describing on-going work (at most 8 pages). Submissions must be formatted in Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) style. This requirement needs not apply to appendices. Papers should be submitted in pdf or postscript format electronically via the web-based submission site http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wflp2010 Preliminary proceedings will be available at the workshop. Selected authors will be invited to submit a full version of their papers after the workshop. Contributions accepted for the post-workshop proceedings have usually appeared in journals -- those of the 2009 edition have been published in LNCS, previous editions in ENTCS, etc. PROGRAMME CHAIR Julio Marino (Universidad Politecnica de Madrid, Spain) PROGRAMME COMMITTEE Maria Alpuente (Universidad Politecnica de Valencia, Spain) Sergio Antoy (Portland State University, USA) Rachid Echahed (CNRS-IMAG, France) Santiago Escobar (Universidad Politecnica de Valencia, Spain) Moreno Falaschi (Universita di Siena, Italy) Murdoch Gabbay (Heriot-Watt University, UK) Maria Garcia de la Banda (Monash University, Australia) Victor Gulias (Lambdastream SL, Spain) Michael Hanus (CAU Kiel, Germany) Herbert Kuchen (Univ. of Muenster, Germany) Francisco Lopez-Fraguas (Universidad Complutense de Madrid, Spain) James Lipton (Wesleyan University, USA) Mircea Marin (University of Tsukuba, Japan) Juan Jose Moreno-Navarro (Ministry of Science & Innovation, Spain) Brigitte Pientka (McGill University, Canada)
