               International Symposium on Logic-based
                Program Synthesis and Transformation

                 JULY 12 - 14, 2006 : VENICE, ITALY

Co-located with
* ICALP'06: Intl. Colloquium on Automata, Languages and Programming
* PPDP'06: ACM Symp. on Principles & Practice of Declarative Programming
* CSFW'06: IEEE Computer Security Foundations Workshop.

Scope of the Symposium
----------------------

The aim of the LOPSTR series is to stimulate and promote international
research and collaboration  on logic-based program development. LOPSTR
is  open to contributions  in logic-based  program development  in any
language paradigm.

LOPSTR  has  a reputation  for  being  a  lively, friendly  forum  for
presenting and discussing  work in progress, so it  is a real workshop
in the  sense that it is  also intended to provide  useful feedback to
authors on their research.  Formal proceedings are produced only after
the conference, so  that authors can incorporate this  feedback in the
published papers.   This year, tool demonstrations  are also solicited
as a  separate submission category. Since 1994  the formal proceedings
have been published in the LNCS series of Springer-Verlag.

Previous  LOPSTR  events were  held  in  London  (2005, 2000),  Verona
(2004), Uppsala  (2003), Madrid (2002), Paphos  (2001), Venice (1999),
Manchester (1998, 1992, 1991), Leuven (1997), Stockholm (1996), Arnhem
(1995), Pisa (1994), and Louvain-la-Neuve (1993).

Invited Speakers
----------------

 * Shaz Qadeer. Microsoft Research, Redmond, USA
 * Massimo Marchiori. MIT, USA and Univ. of Padova, Italy

Topics
------

Topics  of   interest  cover   all  aspects  of   logic-based  program
development, all stages of the software life cycle, and issues of both
programming-in-the-small    and    programming-in-the-large.    Papers
describing applications  in these  areas are especially  welcome.

    The following is a non-exhaustive list of topics:

        * specification
        * synthesis
        * verification
        * transformation
        * specialization
        * analysis
        * optimization
        * composition
        * security
        * reuse
        * applications and tools
        * component-based software development
        * agent-based software development
        * software architectures
        * design patterns and frameworks
        * program refinement and logics for refinement
