Scope:

Lisp is one of the greatest ideas from computer science and a
major influence for almost all programming languages and for all
sufficiently complex software applications.

The International Lisp Conference is a forum for the discussion of
Lisp and, in particular, the design, implementation and
application of any of the Lisp dialects.  We encourage everyone
interested in Lisp to participate.

We invite high quality submissions in all areas involving Lisp
dialects and any other languages in the Lisp family, including,
but not limited to, ACL2, AutoLisp, Clojure, Common Lisp,
ECMAScript, Dylan, Emacs Lisp, ISLISP, Racket, Scheme, SKILL, etc.

Topics may include any and all combinations of Lisp and:

  * Language design and implementation
  * Language integration, inter-operation and deployment
  * Applications (especially commercial)
  * Reflection, meta-object protocols, meta-programming
  * Domain-specific languages
  * Programming paradigms and environments
  * Parallel and distributed computing
  * Theorem proving
  * Scientific computing
  * Data mining
  * Semantic web
