<div dir="ltr">Hello,<br><br>Please, find below the first call for papers for IFL 2017.<br>Please forward these to anyone you think may be interested.<br>Apologies for any duplicates you may receive.<br><br>best regards,<br>Jurriaan Hage<br>Publicity Chair of IFL<br><br>---<br><br>IFL 2017 - CALL FOR PAPERS<br>==========================<br><br>29th SYMPOSIUM ON IMPLEMENTATION AND APPLICATION OF FUNCTIONAL LANGUAGES<br>========================================================================<br><br>University of Bristol, UK<br><br>In cooperation with ACM SIGPLAN<br><br>Wednesday 30 August - Friday 1 September, 2017<br><br><a href="http://iflconference.org/">http://iflconference.org/</a><br><br>Scope<br>-----<br><br>The goal of the IFL symposia is to bring together researchers actively engaged<br>in the implementation and application of functional and function-based<br>programming languages. IFL 2017 will be a venue for researchers to present and<br>discuss new ideas and concepts, work in progress, and publication-ripe results<br>related to the implementation and application of functional languages and<br>function-based programming.<br><br>Peer-review<br>-----------<br><br>Following the IFL tradition, IFL 2017 will use a post-symposium review process<br>to produce the formal proceedings. All participants of IFL 2017 are invited to<br>submit either a draft paper or an extended abstract describing work to be<br>presented at the symposium. At no time may work submitted to IFL be<br>simultaneously submitted to other venues; submissions must adhere to ACM<br>SIGPLAN's republication policy:<br><br><a href="http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Policies/Republication">http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Policies/Republication</a><br><br>The submissions will be screened by the program committee chair to make sure<br>they are within the scope of IFL, and will appear in the draft proceedings<br>distributed at the symposium. Submissions appearing in the draft proceedings<br>are not peer-reviewed publications. Hence, publications that appear only in the<br>draft proceedings are not subject to the ACM SIGPLAN republication policy.<br>After the symposium, authors will be given the opportunity to incorporate the<br>feedback from discussions at the symposium and will be invited to submit a<br>revised full article for the formal review process. From the revised<br>submissions, the program committee will select papers for the formal<br>proceedings considering their correctness, novelty, originality, relevance,<br>significance, and clarity. The formal proceedings will appear in the<br>International Conference Proceedings Series of the ACM Digital Library.<br><br>Important dates<br>---------------<br><br>Mon 31 July     2017 : Submission deadline draft papers<br>Wed  2 August   2017 : Notification of acceptance for presentation<br>Fri  4 August   2017 : Early registration deadline<br>Fri 11 August   2017 : Late registration deadline<br>Mon 21 August   2017 : Submission deadline for pre-symposium proceedings<br>Wed 30 August   2017 - Fri 1 September 2017 : IFL Symposium<br>Mon  4 December 2017 : Submission deadline for post-symposium proceedings<br>Wed 31 January  2018 : Notification of acceptance for post-symposium proceedings<br>Mon 12 March    2018 : Camera-ready version for post-symposium proceedings<br><br>Submission details<br>------------------<br><br>Prospective authors are encouraged to submit papers or extended abstracts to be<br>published in the draft proceedings and to present them at the symposium.
