Hi fellow lispers, I couldn't figure out when and by whom this "update" was done but right now it says "If you heard about the Lisp language and now are curious about it, just drop by and find people who love to talk about what makes Lisp so great, or why Lisp and all other programming languages suck!" on top of the Wiki's homepage. Pay attention to the end of the last sentence. Should there be some lack of security or what is this? -- Alexander

[munich-lisp] [CfPart] 6th European Lisp Workshop at ECOOP, July 6th 2009
by Didier Verna 18 May '09

18 May '09

Apologies for multiple reception. Please forward, to any person you think might be interested. +------------------------------------------------------------+ | CALL FOR PARTICIPATION | | 6th European Lisp Workshop | | July 6, Genova, Italy - co-located with ECOOP 2009 | | http://elw.bknr.net/2009 | +------------------------------------------------------------+ Important Dates =============== ECOOP early registration deadline: May 20, 2009 ECOOP late registration deadline: July 03, 2009 6th European Lisp Workshop: July 06, 2009 Please note that registration must be done with ECOOP itself. There is a reduced registration fee for workshop-only attendance. The early registration deadline is in two days, so register now! See http://ecoop09.disi.unige.it/ for details. 2009 Special News ================= * Edi Weitz will give a keynote address on the use of his notorious open source libraries in commercial / industrial application. * The workshop is sponsored by ITA Software, Inc. Please visit them at http://www.itasoftware.com/ * This year, and for the first time, the workshop proceedings will be published in the ACM Digital Library. Overview ======== "...Please don't assume Lisp is only useful for Animation and Graphics, AI, Bio-informatics, B2B and E-Commerce, Data Mining, EDA/Semiconductor applications, Expert Systems, Finance, Intelligent Agents, Knowledge Management, Mechanical CAD, Modeling and Simulation, Natural Language, Optimization, Research, Risk Analysis, Scheduling, Telecom, and Web Authoring just because these are the only things they happened to list." -- Kent Pitman Lisp, one of the eldest computer languages still in use today, is gaining momentum again. The structure of Lisp makes it easy to extend the language or even to implement entirely new dialects without starting from scratch, making it the ideal candidate for writing Domain Specific Languages. Common Lisp, with the Common Lisp Object System (CLOS), was the first object-oriented programming language to receive an ANSI standard and retains the most complete and advanced object system of any programming language, while influencing many other object-oriented programming languages that followed. This workshop will address the near-future role of Lisp-based languages in research, industry and education. We solicit contributions that discuss the opportunities Lisp provides to capture and enhance the possibilities in software engineering. We want to promote lively discussion between researchers proposing new approaches and practitioners reporting on their experience with the strengths and limitations of current Lisp technologies. Programme ========= In addition to Edi Weitz's keynote address, the workshop will feature: - technical papers on tools to interface modelling in biology, an infrastructure for offline work in web applications and a denotational semantics for modelling the class relationships of CLOS and its MOP, - tutorials on filtered dispatch and SWCLOS, a semantic web processor. Please visit the workshop's website in the next few days for a more detailed description.

Who's going to the European Lisp Symposium in end of May? And by what means do you plan to travel? I'm interested in going, but I wouldn't want to go just by myself. :-) -T. -- Diese Nachricht wurde auf Viren und andere gefaerliche Inhalte untersucht und ist - aktuelle Virenscanner vorausgesetzt - sauber.

[munich-lisp] Last CFP: Trends in Functional Programming
by Horváth Zoltán 05 May '09

05 May '09

Last call for papers 10th SYMPOSIUM ON TRENDS IN FUNCTIONAL PROGRAMMING TFP 2009 SELYE JANOS UNIVERSITY, KOMARNO, SLOVAKIA June 2-4, 2009 http://www.inf.elte.hu/tfp_cefp_2009 *** Submission deadline extended until 10th of May! *** The symposium on Trends in Functional Programming (TFP) is an international forum for researchers with interests in all aspects of functional programming languages, focusing on providing a broad view of current and future trends in Functional Programming. It aspires to be a lively environment for presenting the latest research results. Acceptance for the conference is based on full papers or extended abstracts, and a formal post-symposium refereeing process selects the best articles presented at the symposium for publication in a high-profile volume. TFP 2009 is hosted by the Selye Janos University, Komarno, Slovakia, and it is co-located with the 3rd Central-European Functional Programming School (CEFP 2009), which is held immediately before TFP 2009 (May 25-30). IMPORTANT DATES (ALL 2009) * Paper Submission: May 10 (extended) * Notification of Acceptance: May 12 * Camera Ready Symposium Proceedings Paper: May 14 * TFP Symposium: June 2-4, 2009 * Post Symposium Paper Submission: June 30 * Notification of Acceptance: September 7 * Camera Ready Revised Paper: September 21 SCOPE OF THE SYMPOSIUM 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: leading-edge, previously unpublished research. * Position: on what new trends should or should not be. * Project: descriptions of recently started new projects. * Evaluation: what lessons can be drawn from a finished project. * Overview: summarizing work with respect to a trendy subject. Articles must be original and not submitted for simultaneous publication to any other forum. They may consider any aspect of functional programming: theoretical, implementation-oriented, or more experience- oriented. Applications of functional programming techniques to other languages are also within the scope of the symposium. Contributions on the following subject areas are particularly welcomed: * Dependently Typed Functional Programming * Validation and Verification of Functional Programs * Debugging for Functional Languages * Functional Programming and Security * Functional Programming and Mobility * Functional Programming to Animate/Prototype/Implement Systems from Formal or Semi-Formal Specifications * Functional Languages for Telecommunications Applications * Functional Languages for Embedded Systems * Functional Programming Applied to Global Computing * Functional GRIDs * Functional Programming Ideas in Imperative or Object-Oriented Settings (and the converse) * Interoperability with Imperative Programming Languages * Novel Memory Management Techniques * Parallel/Concurrent Functional Languages * Program Transformation Techniques * Empirical Performance Studies * Abstract/Virtual Machines and Compilers for Functional 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 2009 program chairs, Zoltan Horvath and Viktoria Zsok at tfp2009(a)inf.elte.hu<mailto:tfp2009@inf.elte.hu> SUBMISSION AND DRAFT PROCEEDINGS Acceptance of articles for presentation at the symposium is based on the screening process of full papers (15 pages) and extended abstracts (at least 3 pages). TFP encourages PhD students to submit papers. PhD students may request the program committee to provide extensive feedback on their full papers at the time of submission. Full papers describing work accepted for presentation must be completed before the symposium for publication in the draft proceedings. Further details can be found at the TFP 2009 website. POST-SYMPOSIUM REFEREEING AND PUBLICATION In addition to the draft symposium proceedings, we continue the TFP tradition of publishing a high-quality subset of contributions in the Intellect series on Trends in Functional Programming. PROGRAM COMMITTEE * Peter Achten (symp-chair), Radboud University Nijmegen, NL * John Clements, California Polytechnic State University, USA * Cormac Flanagan, University of California at Santa Cruz, USA * Jurriaan Hage, Utrecht University, NL * Kevin Hammond, University of St. Andrews, UK * Michael Hanus, Christian-Albrechts University zu Kiel, DE * Ralf Hinze, University of Oxford, UK * Zoltan Horvath (PC co-chair), Eotvos Lorand University, HU * Graham Hutton, University of Nottingham, UK * Johan Jeuring, Utrecht University, NL * Pieter Koopman (symp-chair), Radboud University Nijmegen, NL * Hans-Wolfgang Loidl, Ludwig-Maximilians University Munchen, DE * Rita Loogen, Philipps-University Marburg, DE * Greg Michaelson, Heriot-Watt University, UK * Marco T.
