[Caml-list] Time to register for CUFP

The talks and tutorials for CUFP are now up, and it's a really interesting protocols, covering a broad range of FP topics, and including quite a bit that touches on OCaml specifically.  

Note: The deadline for reduced-fee registrations is August 15th.

I hope to see a lot of you there!

At the same time, a vigorous community of working programmers employing functional languages  has come into existence.  CUFP is designed to serve this community. The annual CUFP workshop is a place where people can see how others are using functional programming to solve real world problems; where practitioners meet and collaborate; where language designers and users can share ideas about the future of their favorite language; and where one can learn practical techniques and approaches for putting functional programming to work.  CUFP 2011 will feature two days of tutorials given by language experts, on the 22nd and 23rd, and a day of talks on the 24th. Attendees may register for any subset of the days.  Day 1, Tutorials (September 22nd) =================================     Morning:      - Building reliable Client-Server Applications in Erlang        (Francesco Cesarini)      - Jane Street's OCaml Core library (Yaron Minsky)    Afternoon:      - Building a functional OS (Anil Madhavapeddy, David Scott,        Richard Mortier)      - Collaborative Scientific Software (Ashish Agarwal)  Day 2, Tutorials (September 23rd) =================================     Morning:      - Parallel Programming in Haskell (Simon Peyton Jones, Simon        Marlow, Manuel Chakravarty)      - Systems Programming in Scala (Steven Jensen, Marius Eriksen)    Afternoon:      - The Snap framework for web applications in Haskell (Gregory        Collins)      - F# for the working functional programmer (Michael Sperber)  Day 3, Talks     (September 24th) =================================     Keynote      Lennart Augustsson (Standard Chartered)     Theorem-based derivation of an AES Implementation      John Launchbury (Galois)        Discrete Event Simulation using Erlang      Olivier Boudeville (EDF)     Model based testing of AUTOSAR automotive components      Thomas Arts (Quviq)     HTML5 web application development in OCaml      Keigo Imai (IT Planning)     Large-scale Internet Services in Scala at Twitter      Steve Jenson and Wilhelm Bierbaum (Twitter)     Applying Functional Programming to Build Platform-Independent    Mobile Applications      Adam Granicz (Intellifactory)     Fourteen Days of Haskell: A Real Time Programming Project in Real    Time      Gregory Wright (Alcatel-Lucent)     Disco: using Erlang to implement Mapreduce, Nokia      Prashanth Mundkur and Ville Tuulos and Jared Flatow (Nokia)     Functional mzScheme DSLs in Game Development      Dan Liebgold (Naughty Dog)     OCaml and Acunu Experience Report      Tom Wilkie and Andrew Byde (Acunu)  There will be no published proceedings, as the meeting is intended to  be more a discussion forum than a technical interchange, but videos of all the talks will be placed online after the event.
