[munich-lisp] [CFP] 6th European Lisp Workshop, July 06, 2009
by Didier Verna 24 Feb '09

24 Feb '09

+------------------------------------------------------------+ | CALL FOR PAPERS | | 6th European Lisp Workshop | | July 6, Genova, Italy - co-located with ECOOP 2009 | +------------------------------------------------------------+ Important Dates =============== Submission deadline: April 08, 2009 Notification of acceptance: May 08, 2009 ECOOP early registration deadline: May 20, 2009 6th European Lisp Workshop: July 06, 2009 Please note that registration must be done with ECOOP itself. For more information visit http://elw.bknr.net/2009 Contact: Didier Verna, didier(a)lrde.epita.fr 2009 Special News ================= This year, and for the first time, the workshop proceedings will be published in the ACM Digital Library. Also, the workshop will feature interactive tutorial/demo/coding sessions (see below). 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. The workshop will have two components: there will be formal talks, and interactive turorial/demo/coding sessions. Papers ====== Formal presentations in the workshop should take between 20 minutes and half an hour; additional time will be given for questions and answers. Suggested topics include (but are not limited to): - Experience reports / Case studies - Educational approaches - Software Evolution - Development Aids - Persistent Systems - Dynamic Optimization - Implementation techniques - Hardware Support - Efficiency / Distribution / Parallel programming - Macro-, reflective-, meta- and/or rule-based development approaches - Protocol Meta-programming and Libraries - Context-Oriented, Domain-Oriented and Generative Programming Interactive Tutorial/Demo/Coding Sessions ========================================= Additionally, we invite less formal talks in the form of interactive tutorial/demo/coding sessions. The purpose of these sessions is to both demonstrate and receive feedback on any interesting Lisp system, either stable or under development. Being less formal than technical paper presentations, it is expected that these sessions be highly interactive. Submission Guidelines ===================== Potential contributors are encouraged to submit: - a long paper (around 10 pages) presenting scientific and/or empirical results about Lisp-based uses or new approaches for software engineering purposes, - a short essay (5 pages) defending a position about where research, practice or education based on Lisp should be heading in the near future, - a proposal for an interactive tutorial/demo/coding session (1-2 pages) describing the involved library or application, and the subject of the session. Submissions should be mailed as PDF to Didier Verna (didier(a)lrde.epita.fr) before the submission deadline. Organizers ========== Didier Verna, EPITA Research and Development Laboratory, Paris Charlotte Herzeel, Programming Technology Lab, Vrije Universiteit, Brussel Robert Strandh, LaBRI, University of Bordeaux I, France Christophe Rhodes, Goldsmiths College, University of London Hans Hübner, Software Developer, Berlin -- Didier Verna <didier(a)lrde.epita.fr> Scientific site: http://www.lrde.epita.fr/~didier Music (Jazz) site: http://www.didierverna.com EPITA/LRDE, 14-16 rue Voltaire, 94276 Le Kremlin-Bicêtre, France Tel. +33 (0)1 44 08 01 85 Fax. +33 (0)1 53 14 59 22

[munich-lisp] Wiki page
by Marek Kubica 05 Feb '09

05 Feb '09

Hi, I finally created a wiki page for our user group and filled it with some content: <http://community.schemewiki.org/?munich-lisp> Yes, I know that this is a Scheme wiki and I know that the majority of users are CL users. But the schemewiki is actively maintained by Anton van Straaten (he host Lambda the Ultimate, too), hosted on some server that gets backupped daily so I think the site is in good hands. After the ALU wiki debacle, I would like to be sure that the site is going to stay. Cliki seems to be problematic, too Oh, and the wiki software is written in Lisp. If we'd need more, Anton told me that we could also get a MediaWiki instance on a subdomain (or a domain, if we pay for it) hosted by him. I don't think that's neccessary ATM, but it's good to have an option. regards, Marek

[munich-lisp] Lisp in c't
by Marek Kubica 10 Jan '09

10 Jan '09

Hi, I just saw that there is an article in the current c't 2/2009 about scripting Gimp with the built-in Scheme interpreter, on page 164. Posting it here in case someone wants to buy it and see for himself. I was quite surprised they chose Script-fu over Python-fu but it is nice to see some magazine coverage about Lisp these days. regards, Marek

[munich-lisp] Next Munich Lispers Meeting
by Jim Newton 13 Dec '08

13 Dec '08

Hi everyone, Thanks for attending yesterday's Munich-lispers meeting. And thanks Tobias for a very insightful and entertaining presentation about SLIME. May I suggest that we have another meeting at the end of January. I've posted onto the wiki http://wiki.alu.org/Munich Anyone can update it who wants to. I've also proposed an agenda. Several people yesterday said they might be interested in knowing about how Lisp is used in EDA, Electronic Design Automation. I'll be happy to show some of the interesting features of SKILL (a lisp dialect) which I use at my job. SKILL, an uncommon lisp * Some cool features * Similarities and differences from CL * Common Lisp-like extensions to SKILL * A very opinionated and probably objectionable view of CLOS (I think it should be). May I suggest we meet on 27 January at 19h00? The same location would be great, if we can reserve the room again. Anyone in favor? -jim -- +------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Jim E.

[munich-lisp] How about meeting in December?
by gL 05 Dec '08

05 Dec '08

Hi Tobias and Munich Lisp Group I'd love to come to your upcoming meeting and hear about the very interesting topic. But I'm living to far from Munich ... If possible please make your knowledge and your guide for best practises about Slime, the Emacs mode for editing Common Lisp code public. Thanks in advanced! Gunnar

[munich-lisp] How about meeting in December?
by Tobias C. Rittweiler 03 Dec '08

03 Dec '08

Hi all, it's been quiet in the Munich Lisp Group for quite some time. For too long, as Peter Herth and myself agreed on in a private conversation. I'd hence suggest meeting in the first, or second week of december. And to give some incentive to the meeting, I agreed to give an informal talk about Slime, the Emacs mode for editing Common Lisp code. The objective of the talk is to pass on the knowledge I collected over the past two years hacking on Slime in my spare time. The talk will hence cover best practises, and will hopefully teach you lots of tips. It's also an opportunity to ask questions, give feedback, and request features / changes. After the talk, I'd suggest to go to some bar, lounge or some such to finish the evening smoothly... There's one open issue, though; where should the meeting hold place? Peter mentioned that previous meetings took place in some rooms of the University of Munich---organized by someone on this list. Is this person still on the list, or can anyone comment on this? Or does anyone have another idea of a suitable location? CU, -T. -- Diese Nachricht wurde auf Viren und andere gefaerliche Inhalte untersucht und ist - aktuelle Virenscanner vorausgesetzt - sauber.

Hi, Es tut mir leid aber Ich kann nicht jetz sprechen sehr gut Deutsch. I hope that's OK! Do people on this list talk English at all, or is it only for German speakers? I'd just like to say "hi", I moved to Munich (Pasing) in March and I only just found out that this list exists. I've been programming, in one sense or another, for 24 of my 31 years on this planet, but I've been dabbling in various Lisp dialects on the side for the last few years. The only Lisp I've ever written commercially is Emacs Lisp, but I now work for myself and I am planning on writing some tools, probably in Clozure/OpenMCL on the Mac. Step one is to re-read "On Lisp" and get my head back into Common Lisp mode after a long hiatus. -- Geoffrey Teale Software and Technology Consultant, München tealeg(a)member.fsf.org

SECOND CALL FOR PARTICIPATION TRENDS IN FUNCTIONAL PROGRAMMING 2008 RADBOUD UNIVERSITY NIJMEGEN, THE NETHERLANDS MAY 26-28, 2008 INVITED SPEAKER: PROF. HENK BARENDREGT http://www.st.cs.ru.nl/AFP_TFP_2008/ [ LATE REGISTRATION FEE IS SAME AS EARLY REGISTRATION FEE ] [ LATE REGISTRATION CLOSES AT MAY 5 ] 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 through acceptance by extended abstracts and full papers. A formal post-symposium refereeing process selects the best articles presented at the symposium for publication in a high-profile volume. TFP 2008 is hosted by the Radboud University Nijmegen, The Netherlands, and will be held in the rural setting of Center Parcs “Het Heijderbos”, Heijen (in the vicinity of Nijmegen), The Netherlands. TFP 2008 is co-located with the 6th Int’l. Summer School on Advanced Functional Programming (AFP’08), which is held immediately before TFP’08. PROGRAM INFORMATION We have selected papers in the following themes: (*) Types (*) Applications (*) Parallellism (*) Refactoring (*) Reactive Systems (*) Memory Analysis (*) Software Construction & Program Transformation (*) Reasoning The preliminary program can be found on the site: http://www.st.cs.ru.nl/AFP_TFP_2008/documents/preliminary_program_TFP_2008.… VENUE INFORMATION TFP (and AFP) is held in The Netherlands, at Center Parcs “Het Heijderbos” which is a holiday resort in the woodlands near the city of Nijmegen. We accomodate participants in DeLuxe Cottages, each of which has three separate bed-rooms, shared bathroom, toilet, kitchen, and terrace. Cottages will be shared by three participants. If you wish to reduce costs, you can choose to share a bedroom. The summer school and symposium will take place in the business center of the venue. Breakfast, lunch and diner is included within the limits of the venue. The resort features, amongst others, a sub-tropical swimming pool (free for participants), restaurants, shops, water sports lake, midget golf court, squash court, and outdoor and indoor tennis courts. Nijmegen is considered to be the oldest city of the Netherlands, being approximately 2000 years old. Nijmegen is located at the east border of the Netherlands, near Germany. Nijmegen can be reached easily from several airports such as Schiphol airport, Eindhoven airport, and Düsseldorf airport, as well as by train and car. Conveniently close to Center Parcs “Het Heijderbos” you will find airport Weeze in Germany. The venue Center Parcs “Het Heijderbos” can be reached from Nijmegen by train to Boxmeer (25 minutes).
