[eurolisp] Call for Participation: Commercial Users of Functional Programming Workshop 2009
by Nick Levine 01 Jul '09

01 Jul '09

The organisers of CUFP are really keen to get lispers involved. Although they didn't get any lisp presentations this year, they'd "sure love to have some lisp community participants" - see below for details or visit http://cufp.galois.com/ I'm on the current Program Committee but haven't been very effective. If anyone reading this can recommend potential PC members for future years please get in touch with me directly. They should be well known in the lisp community and also have a scope that encompasses at least some of the other proposals which the workshop might get. - nick - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Commercial Users of Functional Programming Workshop (CUFP) 2009 Functional Programming As a Means, Not an End Call for Participation Sponsored by SIGPLAN Co-located with ICFP 2009 _________________________________________________________ 4 September 2009 Edinburgh, Scotland Registration is through http://www.regmaster.com/conf/icfp2009.html _________________________________________________________ Functional languages have been under academic development for over 25 years, and remain fertile ground for programming language research. Recently, however, developers in industrial, governmental, and open source projects have begun to use functional programming successfully in practical applications. In these settings, functional programming has often provided dramatic leverage, including whole new ways of thinking about the original problem. The goal of the CUFP workshop is to act as a voice for these users of functional programming. The workshop supports the increasing viability of functional programming in the commercial, governmental, and open-source space by providing a forum for professionals to share their experiences and ideas, whether those ideas are related to business, management, or engineering. The workshop is also designed to enable the formation and reinforcement of relationships that further the commercial use of functional programming. Providing user feedback to language designers and implementors is not a primary goal of the workshop, though it will be welcome if it occurs. Program CUFP 2009 will last a full day and feature a discussion session and the following presentations: Bryan O'Sullivan Keynote: Real world Haskell Lee Momtahan (EDF Trading) Implementing a Domain-Specific Language for Derivative Pricing with Scala Bhasker Kode (hover.in) Erlang at hover.in Jefferson Heard, (Renaissance Computing Institute) Teleconferencing over High-res Maps with Haskell Alex Peake (TFC) and Adam Granicz (Intellifactory) The First Substantial Line of Business Application in F# Christopher Piro and Eugene Letuchy (Facebook) Functional Programming at Facebook Fermin Reig (Morgan Stanly) Computing with Time Series Data in Finance Warren Harris (Metaweb) Functional Programming at Freebase Mark Wong-VanHaren (Glyde) Clear & Simple: Composing a Marketplace Duncan Coutts (Well-Typed) Birth of the Industrial Haskell Group There will be no published proceedings, as the meeting is intended to be more a discussion forum than a technical interchange. See http://cufp.galois.com for more information, including presentation abstracts and the most recent schedule information. This will be the sixth CUFP; see CUFP 2004 CUFP 2005, CUFP 2006, CUFP 2007 and CUFP 2008 for information about the earlier meetings, including reports from attendees and video of the most recent talks.
