* Invited speaker: Zachary Ives (University of Pennsylvania)

Bidirectional transformations (bx) are a mechanism for maintaining the
consistency of at least two related sources of information. Such sources
can be relational databases, software models and code, or any other
document following standard or ad-hoc formats. Bx are an emerging topic in
a wide range of research areas, with prominent presence at top conferences
in several different fields (namely databases, programming languages,
software engineering, and graph transformation), but with results in one
field often getting limited exposure in the others. Bx 2019 is a dedicated
venue for bx in all relevant fields, and is part of a workshop series that
was created in order to promote cross-disciplinary research and awareness
in the area. As such, since its beginning in 2012, the workshop has rotated
between venues in different fields.

Bx 2019 will be a part of Philadelphia Logic Week (PLW) 2019, which also
includes conference and workshops on logic, provenance, and databases,
topics that we hope will complement Bx and help build engagement with these
communities.

 * Program transformation, partial evaluation, meta-programming
 * Specification,
 * Verification
 * Debugging
 * Testing
 * Knowledge representation, machine learning
 * Interaction of declarative programming with other formalisms
 * Implementation of declarative languages
 * Advanced programming environments and tools
 * Software techniques for declarative programming
 * Applications

The primary focus is on new and original research results, but
submissions describing innovative products, prototypes under development,
application systems, or interesting experiments (e.g., benchmarks) are
also encouraged. Survey papers that present some aspects of the above
topics from a new perspective, and experience reports are also welcome.

Papers must be written and presented in English. Work that already
appeared in unpublished or informally published workshop proceedings may
be submitted (please contact the PC chair in case of questions).


Submission Guidelines

Submission is via Easychair submission website for WFLP 2019:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=wflp2019

Authors are invited to submit papers in the following categories:

+ Regular research paper
+ Work-in-progress report
+ System description

Regular research papers must describe original work, be written and
presented in English, and must not substantially overlap with papers
that have been formally published or that are simultaneously submitted
to a journal, conference, or workshop with formal proceedings. They will
be judged on the basis of significance, relevance, correctness,
originality, and clarity. For work-in-progress reports and system
descriptions, less formal rules apply, and presentation-only submissions
(talk and discussion, but no paper in the formal proceedings) are
possible. Please contact the PC chair with any questions.

All submissions must be formatted in the Lecture Notes in Computer
Science style. Submissions cannot exceed 15 pages including references
but excluding well-marked appendices not intended for publication.
