[Haskell] AMAST 2006 Final Call for Papers (extended deadlines)
NEWS: - Extended deadlines: * Submission of abstracts:3 February 2006 * Submission of full papers: 10 February 2006 FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS 11th International Conference on Algebraic Methodology and Software Technology, AMAST '06 colocated with MPC '06 Kuressaare, Estonia, 5-8 July 2006 http://cs.ioc.ee/mpc-amast06/amast/ Background The major goal of the AMAST conferences is to promote research that may lead to the setting of software technology on a firm, mathematical basis. This goal is advanced by a large international cooperation with contributions from both academia and industry. The virtues of a software technology developed on a mathematical basis have been envisioned as being capable of providing software that is (a) correct, and the correctness can be proved mathematically, (b) safe, so that it can be used in the implementation of critical systems, (c) portable, i.e., independent of computing platforms and language generations, and (d) evolutionary, i.e., it is self-adaptable and evolves with the problem domain. The previous conferences were held in Iowa City, Iowa, USA (1989, 1991 and 2000), Twente, The Netherlands (1993), Montreal, Canada (1995), Munich, Germany (1996), Sydney, Australia (1997), Manaus, Amazonia, Brazil (1998), Reunion Island, France (2002) and Stirling, UK (2004, colocated with MPC' 04). The 2006 conference will be held at Kuressaare, Estonia, colocated with MPC '06. The conference series has become widely known for disseminating academic and industrial achievements within the broad AMAST areas of interest. Through these meetings AMAST has attracted an international following among researchers and practitioners interested in software technology, programming methodology and their algebraic and logical foundations. Important dates * Submission of abstracts:3 February 2006 (extended) * Submission of full papers: 10 February 2006 (extended) * Notification of authors: 17 March 2006 * Camera-ready version: 14 April 2006 Topics Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, the following: * Software technology: systems software technology, application software technology, concurrent and reactive systems, formal methods in industrial software development, formal techniques for software requirements/design, evolutionary software/adaptive systems. * Programming methodology: logic programming, functional programming, object paradigms, constraint programming and concurrency, program verification and transformation, programming calculi, specification languages and tools, formal specification and development case studies. * Algebraic and logical foundations: logic, category theory, relation algebra, computational algebra, algebraic foundations for languages and systems, coinduction, theorem proving and logical frameworks for reasoning, logics of programs, algebra and coalgebra. * Systems and tools (for system demonstrations or ordinary papers): software development environments, support for correct software development, system support for reuse, tools for prototyping, component based software development tools, validation and verification, computer algebra systems, theorem proving systems. Submission and publication Two kinds of submissions are solicited for this conference: technical papers and system demonstrations. Papers may report academic or industrial progress, and papers which deal with both are especially well-regarded. Submission is in two stages. Abstracts (plain text) must be submitted by 3 February 2006 (extended). Full papers (pdf) adhering to the llncs style and not longer than 15 pages (6 pages for system demonstrations) must be submitted by 10 February 2006 (extended). The web-based submission system is open. Papers must report previously unpublished work and not be submitted concurrently to another conference with refereed proceedings. Accepted papers must be presented at the conference by one of the authors. All papers will be refereed by the programme committee, and will be judged based on their significance, technical merit, and relevance to the conference. The proceedings of AMAST '06 will be published in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series of Springer-Verlag.

[Haskell] MPC 2006 Final Call for Papers (extended deadlines)
NEWS: - Extended deadlines: * Submission of abstracts: 3 February 2006 * Submission of full papers: 10 February 2006 FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS 8th International Conference on Mathematics of Program Construction MPC '06 Kuressaare, Estonia, 3-5 July 2006 http://cs.ioc.ee/mpc-amast06/mpc/ colocated with AMAST '06 Background The biennial MPC conferences aim to promote the development of mathematical principles and techniques that are demonstrably useful and usable in the process of constructing computer programs. Topics of interest range from algorithmics to support for program construction in programming languages and systems. The previous conferences were held in Twente, The Netherlands (1989), Oxford, UK (1992), Kloster Irsee, Germany (1995), Marstrand, Sweden (1998), Ponte de Lima, Portugal (2000), Dagstuhl, Germany (2002) and Stirling, UK (2004, colocated with AMAST '04). The 2006 conference will be held at Kuressaare, Estonia, colocated with AMAST '06. Invited speakers Robin Cockett, University of Calgary Olivier Danvy, Aarhus Universitet Oege de Moor, University of Oxford Important dates * Submission of abstracts: 3 February 2006 (extended) * Submission of full papers: 10 February 2006 (extended) * Notification of authors: 17 March 2006 * Camera-ready version: 14 April 2006 Topics Papers are solicited on mathematical methods and tools put to use in program construction. Topics of interest range from algorithmics to support for program construction in programming languages and systems. Some typical areas are type systems, program analysis and transformation, programming language semantics, program logics. Theoretical contributions are welcome provided their relevance for program construction is clear. Reports on applications are welcome provided their mathematical basis is evident. Submission and publication Submission is in two stages. Abstracts (plain text) must be submitted by 3 February 2006 (extended). Full papers (pdf) adhering to the llncs style must be submitted by 10 February 2006 (extended). There is no official page limit, but authors should strive for brevity. The web-based submission system is open. Papers must report previously unpublished work and not be submitted concurrently to another conference with refereed proceedings. PC members may submit. Accepted papers must be presented at the conference by one of the authors. The proceedings of MPC '06 will be published in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series of Springer-Verlag. After the conference, the authors of the best papers will be invited to submit revised versions to a special issue of the Science of Computer Programming journal of Elsevier.

Kuressaare is a charming seaside resort on the shores of the Gulf of Riga highly popular with Estonians as well as visitors to Estonia. The scientific sessions of MPC/AMAST 2006 will take place at Saaremaa Spa Hotel Meri, one among the several new spa hotels in the town. The social events will involve a number of sites, including the 14th-century episcopal castle. Accommodation will be at Saaremaa Spa Hotels Meri and Rüütli. To get to Kuressaare and away, one must pass through Tallinn (pop. 402000), Estonia's capital city. Tallinn is famous for its picturesque medieval Old Town, inscribed on UNESCO's World Heritage List.

For URLs, MediaWiki converts every space into an underscore. So if the page name is "Books and tutorials" then the URL is http://haskell.org/haskellwiki/Books_and_tutorials. > [...] Best wishes, Wolfgang ___ Haskell mailing list Haskell@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell
