                          http://2019.iflconference.org

================================================================================

### Scope

The goal of the IFL symposia is to bring together researchers actively engaged
in the implementation and application of functional and function-based
programming languages. IFL 2019 will be a venue for researchers to present and
discuss new ideas and concepts, work in progress, and publication-ripe results
related to the implementation and application of functional languages and
function-based programming.

Topics of interest to IFL include, but are not limited to:

- language concepts
- type systems, type checking, type inferencing
- compilation techniques
- staged compilation
- run-time function specialization
- run-time code generation
- partial evaluation
- (abstract) interpretation
- metaprogramming
- generic programming
- automatic program generation
- array processing
- concurrent/parallel programming
- concurrent/parallel program execution
- embedded systems
- web applications
- (embedded) domain specific languages
- security
- novel memory management techniques
- run-time profiling performance measurements
- debugging and tracing
- virtual/abstract machine architectures
- validation, verification of functional programs
- tools and programming techniques
- (industrial) applications


### Keynote Speaker

* Olivier Danvy, Yale-NUS College


### Submissions and peer-review

Differently from previous editions of IFL, IFL 2019 solicits two kinds of
submissions:

* Regular papers (12 pages including references)
* Draft papers for presentations ('weak' limit between 8 and 15 pages)

Regular papers will undergo a rigorous review by the program committee, and will
be evaluated according to their correctness, novelty, originality, relevance,
significance, and clarity. A set of regular papers will be conditionally
accepted for publication. Authors of conditionally accepted papers will be
provided with committee reviews along with a set of mandatory revisions.
Regular papers not accepted for publication will be considered as draft
papers, at the request of the author.

Draft papers will be screened to make sure that they are within the scope of
IFL, and will be accepted for presentation or rejected accordingly.

Prior to the symposium:
  Authors of conditionally accepted papers and accepted presentations will
  submit a pre-proceedings version of their work that will appear in the draft
  proceedings distributed at the symposium. The draft proceedings does not
  constitute a formal publication.

  We require that at least one of the authors present the work at IFL 2019.

After the symposium:

  Authors of conditionally accepted papers will submit a revised versions of
  their paper for the formal post-proceedings.
  The program committee will assess whether the mandatory revisions have been
  adequately addressed by the authors and thereby determines the final
  accept/reject status of the paper.
  Our interest is to ultimately accept all conditionally accepted papers. If you
  are an author of a conditionally accepted paper, please make sure that you
  address all the concerns of the reviewers.


  Authors of accepted presentations will be given the opportunity to incorporate
  the feedback from discussions at the symposium and will be invited to submit a
  revised full article for the formal post-proceedings.
  The program committee will evaluate these submissions according to their
  correctness, novelty, originality, relevance, significance, and clarity, and
  will thereby determine whether the paper is accepted or rejected.


### Publication

The formal proceedings will appear in the International Conference
Proceedings Series of the ACM Digital Library.

At no time may work submitted to IFL be simultaneously submitted to other
venues; submissions must adhere to ACM SIGPLAN's republication policy:

[Caml-list] OCaml Users and Developers Workshop 2019: Call for participation

It is my pleasure to invite participation in the OCaml Users and Developers
Workshop 2019, which is again co-located with ICFP and will be held on
Friday 23rd August, 2019 in Berlin, Germany.

http://ocaml.org/meetings/ocaml/2019/

Early bird registration deadline: July 18th, 2019

The OCaml Users and Developers Workshop brings together the OCaml community,
including users of OCaml in industry, academia, hobbyists and the free
software community. Previous editions have been co-located with ICFP since
2012 in Copenhagen, Boston, Gothenburg, Nara, Oxford and last year in St
Louis, following OCaml Meetings in Paris in 2010 and 2011.

https://icfp19.sigplan.org/home/ocaml-2019

Registration for the workshop day is required, but *not for the entire
conference*. There are several talks with an OCaml flavour in the ML
Workshop, which is the previous day (August 22nd). Note that although the
precise talk schedule is not yet finalised (it should be by the end of this
week), once registered for the day, it is possible to move between
workshops.

Programme
---------

We have accepted 10 talks (full details of which are both on the SIGPLAN
website and also shortly on ocaml.org) and there is an additional talk on
recent developments and plans for the compiler from Xavier Leroy. The
programme covers recent developments and plans in tooling, several
interesting experience reports and other applications of OCaml.

[Caml-list] Summer BOB 2019 2nd Call for Participation (Aug 21, Berlin, early reg until Jul 18)

Among other great talks, Xavier Leroy!

Come for BOB, stay for the OCaml and ML workshops!

================================================================================
Summer BOB 2019
Conference
"What happens if we simply use what's best?"
August 21, 2019, Berlin
co-located with ICFP 2019
http://bobkonf.de/2019-summer/
Program: http://bobkonf.de/2019-summer/program.html
Registration: http://bobkonf.de/2019-summer/registration.html
================================================================================

Are you interested in technologies beyond the mainstream, that are a
pleasure to use, and effective at getting the job done?

BOB is the forum for developers, architects and builders to explore
and discover the best tools available today for building software. Our
goal is for all participants to leave the conference with new ideas to
improve development back at the ranch.

Summer BOB is a one-time-only event, in the spirit of the spectacular
Winter BOB. The International Conference on Functional Programming is
coming to town, and Summer BOB will be right in the middle of it, on
the last day of ICFP proper, prior to all the workshops. Summer BOB
will feature two tracks: one from practitioners, and one from
researchers, and foster communication and cross-pollination between
these communities.

BOB features two tracks of seven talk each: One research track with
invited talks, and one track by practitioners, designed to
cross-pollinate and inspire.

Topics include distributed programming, testing, linear algebra,
functional design patterns, type systems, formal methods, and
interactive development.

We are committed to diversity: We aim at exploring a wide range of
tools in a welcoming and friendly crowd of diverse people. To that
end, a number of support options for participants from groups
under-represented in tech are available.

------------------------------------------------------------

10th Workshop on Tools for Automatic Program Analysis (TAPAS 2019)

8 October 2019, Porto, Portugal.

A satellite workshop of SAS 2019. Part of the 3rd World Congress on Formal Methods.

Important Dates

  • Submission deadline: 4 July 18 July 2019 (extended)
  • Notification of acceptance: 2 August 15 August
  • Final version due: 31 August 8 September
  • Workshop: 8 October
  • Post-proceedings due: 15 November (tentative)

Publication

Revised versions of selected papers will be published after the workshop by Springer in a volume of its Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS), which will collect contributions to some workshops and symposia co-located with FM 2019.

The workshop will also have informal proceedings, posted on its web page.

Objectives

In recent years, a wide range of static analysis tools have emerged, some of which are currently in industrial use or are well beyond the advanced prototype level. Many impressive practical results have been obtained, which allow complex properties to be proven or checked in a fully or semi-automatic way, even in the context of complex software developments. In parallel, the techniques to design and implement static analysis tools have improved significantly, and much effort is being put into engineering the tools.

This workshop is intended to promote discussions and exchange experience between users of static analysis tools and specialists in all areas of program analysis design and implementation.

Scope

The technical program of TAPAS 2019 will consist of invited lectures, together with presentations based on submitted papers or abstracts.

Submissions can cover any aspect of program analysis tools including, but not limited to the following:

  • design and implementation of static analysis tools (including practical techniques used for obtaining precision and performance)
  • components of static analysis tools (front-ends, abstract domains, etc.)
  • integration of static analyzers (in proof assistants, test generation tools, IDEs, etc.)
  • reusable software infrastructure (analysis algorithms and frameworks)
  • experience reports on the use of static analyzers (both research prototypes and industrial tools)

This workshop welcomes work in progress, overviews of more extensive work, programmatic or position papers and tool presentations.

Submission Guidelines

TAPAS 2019 welcomes the following categories of submissions:

  • Regular papers (12-15+ pages)
  • Short papers (6-8+ pages)
  • Extended abstracts (2 pages)

Please use the LNCS style, and submit via the TAPAS 2019 author interface of EasyChair.
