Preliminary Call for Papers
Reggio Calabria, Italy
September 3 - 5, 2003

=================================================
Following the last three APPIA-GULP-PRODE events held, respectively, in La Habana, Cuba (2000), in �vora, Portugal (2001) and Madrid, Spain (2002) (Portugal), the next joint APPIA, GULP, and PRODE conference will be held in Reggio Calabria (Italy), in September 3-5, 2003. The conference is being organized by the DIMET Department of Universit� �Mediterranea" di Reggio Calabria and by the Mathematics Department of Universita' della Calabria of Cosenza.
The aim of the Conference is to foster scientific cooperation between Italian, Portuguese, Spanish and Latin America researchers -- although submissions are open to the whole declarative programming community -- to improve the knowledge of the state of the art of declarative programming (through the invited talks) and to show ongoing research done (through presentations of papers).
Topics Submissions of papers are welcome on all aspects of declarative programming, including, but not limited to:
- Theoretical Foundations: languages, semantics, procedures for declarative programming - Deductive databases: query and update languages, rewriting techniques, constraints, view maintenance - Implementation: running systems, parallelism, systems performance, web-based tools - Program Development Tools and Environments: abstract interpretation techniques, debugging - Logic Programming and Non-monotonic reasoning: semantics of new and existing languages, relationship between various formalisms, complexity and expressive power - Extensions and Integration with other Paradigms: imperative, functional-logic languages, concurrency, constraint solving and constraint logic programming - Specification Languages: executability, expressiveness, development techniques - Real World Experiences with Declarative Technologies: applications and evaluation
Invited speakers: - Georg Gottlob, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - Second Speaker to be defined
Tutorials: - Disjunctive Logic Programming: Knowledge Representation Techniques, Computation and Applications - Wolfgang Faber, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - Logic Programming and Data Mining � Giuseppe Manco, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
