2nd call for papers: Trends in Functional Programming, 11-13 june 2018, Chalmers Campus Johanneberg, Gothenburg
by Peter Achten 16 Apr '18

16 Apr '18

------------------------------------- 2 N D C A L L F O R P A P E R S ------------------------------------- ======== TFP 2018 =========== 19th Symposium on Trends in Functional Programming 11-13 June, 2018 Chalmers Campus Johanneberg, Gothenburg http://www.cse.chalmers.se/~myreen/tfp2018/index.html The symposium on Trends in Functional Programming (TFP) is an international forum for researchers with interests in all aspects of functional programming, taking a broad view of current and future trends in the area. It aspires to be a lively environment for presenting the latest research results, and other contributions (see below at scope). Please be aware that TFP uses two distinct rounds of submissions (see below at submission details). TFP 2018 will be the main event of a pair of functional programming events. TFP 2018 will be accompanied by the International Workshop on Trends in Functional Programming in Education (TFPIE), which will take place on June 14. == SCOPE == The symposium recognizes that new trends may arise through various routes. As part of the Symposium's focus on trends we therefore identify the following five article categories. High-quality articles are solicited in any of these categories: Research Articles: Leading-edge, previously unpublished research work Position Articles: On what new trends should or should not be Project Articles: Descriptions of recently started new projects Evaluation Articles: What lessons can be drawn from a finished project Overview Articles: Summarizing work with respect to a trendy subject. Articles must be original and not simultaneously submitted for publication to any other forum. They may consider any aspect of functional programming: theoretical, implementation-oriented, or experience-oriented. Applications of functional programming techniques to other languages are also within the scope of the symposium. Topics suitable for the symposium include, but are not limited to: Functional programming and multicore/manycore computing Functional programming in the cloud High performance functional computing Extra-functional (behavioural) properties of functional programs Dependently typed functional programming Validation and verification of functional programs Debugging and profiling for functional languages Functional programming in different application areas: security, mobility, telecommunications applications, embedded systems, global computing, grids, etc. Interoperability with imperative programming languages Novel memory management techniques Program analysis and transformation techniques Empirical performance studies Abstract/virtual machines and compilers for functional languages (Embedded) domain specific languages New implementation strategies Any new emerging trend in the functional programming area If you are in doubt on whether your article is within the scope of TFP, please contact the TFP 2018 program chairs, Michał Pałka and Magnus Myreen. == Best Paper Awards == To reward excellent contributions, TFP awards a prize for the best paper accepted for the formal proceedings. TFP traditionally pays special attention to research students, acknowledging that students are almost by definition part of new subject trends. A student paper is one for which the authors state that the paper is mainly the work of students, the students are listed as first authors, and a student would present the paper. A prize for the best student paper is awarded each year. In both cases, it is the PC of TFP that awards the prize. In case the best paper happens to be a student paper, that paper will then receive both prizes. == Paper Submissions == We use EasyChair for the refereeing process. The link to the submission page is: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=tfp2018 Authors of papers have the choice of having their contributions formally reviewed either before or after the Symposium. == Pre-symposium formal review == Papers to be formally reviewed before the symposium should be submitted before an early deadline and receive their reviews and notification of acceptance for both presentation and publication before the symposium. A paper that has been rejected in this process may still be accepted for presentation at the symposium, but will not be considered for the post-symposium formal review. == Post-symposium formal review == Draft papers will receive minimal reviews and notification of acceptance for presentation at the symposium. Authors of draft papers will be invited to submit revised papers based on the feedback receive at the symposium. A post-symposium refereeing process will then select a subset of these articles for formal publication. == Paper categories == Draft papers and papers submitted for formal review are submitted as extended abstracts (4 to 10 pages in length) or full papers (20 pages). The submission must clearly indicate which category it belongs to: research, position, project, evaluation, or overview paper. It should also indicate which authors are research students, and whether the main author(s) are students. A draft paper for which all authors are students will receive additional feedback by one of the PC members shortly after the symposium has taken place. == Format == Papers must be written in English, and written using the LNCS style. For more information about formatting please consult the Springer LNCS web site. == Important Dates == Submission (pre-symposium review): March 26, 2018 -- passed -- Submission (draft, post-symposium review): April 26, 2018 -- open -- Notification (pre- and post-symposium review): May 3, 2018 Registration: June 3, 2018 TFP Symposium: June 11-13, 2018 TFPIE Workshop: June 14, 2018 Student papers feedback: June 21, 2018 Submission (post-symposium review): August 14, 2018 Notification (post-symposium review): September 20, 2018 Camera-ready paper (pre- and post-symposium review): November 30, 2018 == Program Committee == Program Co-chairs Michał Pałka, Chalmers University of Technology (SE) Magnus Myreen, Chalmers University of Technology (SE) Program Committee Soichiro Hidaka, Hosei University (JP) Meng Wang, University of Bristol (UK) Sam Tobin-Hochstadt, Indiana University Bloomington (US) Tiark Rompf, Purdue University (US) Patricia Johann, Appalachian State University (US) Neil Sculthorpe, Nottingham Trent University (UK) Andres Löh, Well-Typed LLP (UK) Tarmo Uustalu, Tallinn University of Technology (EE) Cosmin E.

Unplanned Hackage Downtime
by Gershom B 12 Apr '18

12 Apr '18

I made a terrible administrative snafu, and we need to take some time to restore Hackage. Luckily we have better mirroring in place now, so cabal-install should be able to fall back automatically to mirrors. If this does not work, you can use http://objects-us-west-1.dream.io/hackage-mirror/ or http://hackage.fpcomplete.com/ manually. Best (and sincere apologies), Gershom

FNC 2018 will be held in Gran Canaria, Spain. Gran Canaria originally meaning "Great [Island] of Dogs" is the second most populous island of the Canary Islands, an African archipelago which is part of Spain, with a population of 847,830 (in 2015) that constitutes approximately 40% of the population of the archipelago. Located in the Atlantic Ocean about 150 kilometres (93 mi) off the northwestern coast of Africa and about 1,350 km (840 mi) from Europe. With an area of 1,560 km2 (602 sq. mi) and an altitude of 1,956 m (6,417 ft) at the Pico de las Nieves, Gran Canaria is the third largest island of the archipelago in both area and altitude.
