[Caml-list] Call for Participation, Functional Software Architecture (Sep 6, Milan)

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

*** FUNARCH 2024 -- CALL FOR PARTICIPATION ***

The Second ACM SIGPLAN Workshop on
Functional Software Architecture - FP in the Large

6th September 2024, Milan, Italy
Co-located with ICFP 2024

https://www.functional-architecture.org/events/funarch-2024/

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

BACKGROUND:

The ACM SIGPLAN Workshop on Functional Software Architecture - FP
in the Large aims to disseminate and enable the use of functional
programming in the large and long-lived software projects.

We specifically want:

- To assemble a community interested in software architecture
techniques and technologies specific to functional programming;

- To identify, categorize, and document topics relevant to
the field of functional software architecture;

- To connect the functional programming community to the software
architecture community to cross-pollinate between the two.

We'd love for you to be part of this effort. Whatever your
background, you're welcome at FUNARCH - to listen to talks, report
on your experience, and interact with others that share our goals.

See you at FUNARCH!

REGISTRATION:

You can register for the workshop via the registration page for
the ICFP conference, but there's no need to also register for
the conference. Reduced fees are available until 5th August.

[Caml-list] POPL 2025: Final Call for Workshops and Co-located Events (July 26 AOE)

FINAL CALL FOR WORKSHOPS AND CO-LOCATED EVENTS

                    POPL 2025

      52nd ACM SIGPLAN-SIGACT  Symposium on
      Principles of Programming Languages

         Sun 19 - Sat 25, January 2025
           Denver, Colorado, United States

          https://popl25.sigplan.org

The 52nd ACM SIGPLAN-SIGACT Symposium on Principles of Programming Languages (POPL 2025) will be held in Denver, Colorado, United States.

POPL provides a forum for the discussion of fundamental principles and important innovations in the design, definition, analysis, transformation, implementation and verification of programming languages, programming systems, and programming abstractions.

Events focusing on experimental and theoretical topics are welcome.

Proposals are invited for workshops and other events to be co-located with POPL 2025. All co-located events are sponsored by SIGPLAN (http://acm.org/sigplan/).

Workshops should be more informal and focused than POPL itself, and include sessions that enable interaction among the workshop attendees. The preference is for one-day workshops, but other schedules can also be considered.

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

Submission details

Deadline for submission: 26 July 2024

Notification of acceptance: 2 August 2024

A workshop proposal should provide the following information:

* Name of the workshop.
* Duration of the workshop.
* Whether the workshop will be Conference-approved or SIGPLAN-approved (see below).
* Organizers: names, affiliation, contact information, brief (100 words) biography.
* A short description (150-200 words) of the topic.
* Event format: workshop; type of submissions if any; review process; results dissemination.
* Expected attendance and target audience.
* Potential PC members - please do not contact them before the workshop is approved.
* History of the workshop.
* Plans for remote participation

Proposals must be submitted in PDF form by email with the subject POPL 2025 Workshop Proposal: [workshop name], to the workshop co-chairs: Christoph Matheja (chmat@dtu.dk) and Robert Rand (rand@uchicago.edu).

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

SIGPLAN Sponsorship

POPL co-located events are sponsored by SIGPLAN (http://sigplan.org/). There are two kinds of co-located events: Conference-approved (no proceedings) and SIGPLAN-approved (proceedings in the ACM Digital Library). See http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Guidelines/Workshops/ for more information, including a full listing of prescriptions for Conference-approved and SIGPLAN-approved workshops.

SIGPLAN-approved workshops must respect the SIGPLAN Diversity Policy. Proposals for SIGPLAN-approved workshops must additionally include the gender, country of affiliation, and professional status of potential PC members. See https://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Policies/Diversity/ for more details.

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

Selection committee

All submissions will be evaluated by a committee comprising the workshops co-chairs, the general chair, and the program chair.

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

Further information

Any questions regarding POPL 2025 co-located event proposals should be addressed to the workshops chairs Christoph Matheja (chmat@dtu.dk) and Robert Rand (rand@uchicago.edu).

[Caml-list] IFL 2024: Second Call for Papers

=======================================================================
IFL 2024

36rd Symposium on Implementation and Application of Functional Languages


venue: Radboud University Nijmegen, The Netherlands
August 26 - 28 2024

https://ifl24.cs.ru.nl

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

### 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 2024 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.


### Industrial track and topics of interest

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 specialisation
- run-time code generation
- partial evaluation
- (abstract) interpretation
- meta-programming
- 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


### Peer-review process

Following IFL tradition, IFL 2024 will use a post-symposium review
process to produce the formal proceedings.

Before the symposium authors submit draft papers. These draft papers
will be screened by the program chairs to make sure that they are within
the scope of IFL. The draft papers will be made available to all
participants at the symposium. Each draft paper is presented by one of
the authors at the symposium.

After the symposium, a formal review process will take place, conducted
by the program committee. Reviewing is single blind. There will be at
least 3 reviews per paper. The reviewers have 6 weeks to write their
reviews. For the camera-ready version the authors can make minor
revisions which are accepted without further reviewing.


### Important dates

Submission deadline of draft papers August 4th, 2024
Notification of acceptance for presentation August 6th, 2024
Early registration deadline August 11th, 2024
Late registration deadline August 21th, 2024
IFL symposium August 26-28, 2024
Submission of papers for proceedings December 1st, 2024
Notification of acceptance February 2nd, 2025
Camera-ready version March 2nd, 2025


### Submission details and Registration

All contributions must be written in English. Papers must use the ACM
two columns conference format, which can be found at:

http://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template

committee based on the submissions received for the formal review
process. The prize carries a cash award equivalent to 150 Euros.
