====================================================================== CALL FOR PARTICIPATION WGP 2014 10th ACM SIGPLAN Workshop on Generic Programming Gothenburg, Sweden Sunday, August 31, 2014 http://www.wgp-sigplan.org/2014 Co-located with the International Conference on Functional Programming (ICFP 2014) ====================================================================== Generic programming is about making programs more adaptable by making them more general. Generic programs often embody non-traditional kinds of polymorphism; ordinary programs are obtained from them by suitably instantiating their parameters. In contrast with normal programs, the parameters of a generic program are often quite rich in structure; for example they may be other programs, types or type constructors, class hierarchies, or even programming paradigms. Generic programming techniques have always been of interest, both to practitioners and to theoreticians, and, for at least 20 years, generic programming techniques have been a specific focus of research in the functional and object-oriented programming communities. Generic programming has gradually spread to more and more mainstream languages, and today is widely used in industry. This workshop brings together leading researchers and practitioners in generic programming from around the world, and features papers capturing the state of the art in this important area.
