[Haskell-cafe] FLOPS 2016: Call for Participation and Posters/Demos

FLOPS 2016: 13th International Symposium on Functional and Logic Programming March 4-6, 2016, Kochi, Japan http://www.info.kochi-tech.ac.jp/FLOPS2016/ Call for Participation and Posters/Demos Registration will be open on Monday, Dec 21, 2015. Early registration deadline is Monday, Feb 8, 2016. Poster/Demo abstract submission deadline is Monday, Jan 11, 2016. FLOPS aims to bring together practitioners, researchers and implementers of the declarative programming, to discuss mutually interesting results and common problems: theoretical advances, their implementations in language systems and tools, and applications of these systems in practice. The scope includes all aspects of the design, semantics, theory, applications, implementations, and teaching of declarative programming. FLOPS specifically aims to promote cross-fertilization between theory and practice and among different styles of declarative programming. In addition to the presentations of regular research papers, the FLOPS program includes tutorials, as well as the poster/demo session for demonstrating the tools and systems described during the talks and for presenting works-in-progress and getting the feedback. FLOPS has established a Best Paper award. The winner will be announced at the symposium. CALLS FOR POSTERS AND DEMONSTRATIONS If you wish to present a poster at FLOPS, please send the plain text abstract by e-mail to -- by January 11, 2016. The abstract should include the title, the names of the authors and their affiliation, along with enough details to judge its scope and relevance. We will announce the accepted submissions on January 25, 2016. The format of the poster will be announced at that time.
