Hi folks I'm thinking of writing a little essay arguing the case for the advantages of FP for producing quality software. Can the list recommend any papers/articles which I can use as sources of my argument? I have access to the IEEE database too although earlier I couldn't find anything on the subject. Thanks, Paul

Try: Philip Wadler. An angry half dozen. SIGPLAN Notices 33(2):25--30, February 1998. [NB. http://citeseer.ist.psu.edu/article/wadler98angry.html ] Also look for the schedules for the 2007 and 2006 CUFP (Commercial Users of Functional Programming) workshops. The schedules have links to slides from talks by people using FP in industry.

ICFP 2007 introduced a new category of paper called an "Experience Report",
which is not required to add to the body of research knowledge, but rather
report on the effectiveness of functional tools and methods in full-scale
projects. You can read the official description in the call for papers:
http://www.icfpconference.org/icfp2008/cfp/cfp.html
The ICFP 2007 schedule lists all the experience reports here:

You can get the PDFs for the experience report (and talk slides) we wrote
describing our use of FP at Linspire here:
