Notification of intent : 20 October 2023 Submission deadline: 1 December 2023 *** If you are attending the ICFP conference in Seattle this week, please feel free to speak with Nicolas Wu if you have any questions about submitting for the special issue *** SCOPE The idea of program calculation, in which programs are derived from specifications using equational reasoning techniques, has been a topic of interest in functional programming since its earliest days. In particular, the approach allows us to systematically discover how programs can be defined, while at the same time obtaining proofs that they are correct. The aim of this special issue is to document advances that have been made in the field of program calculation in recent years. TOPICS Full-length, archival-quality submissions are solicited on all aspects of program calculation and related topics. Specific topics of interest include but are not limited to: - Program derivation and transformation; - Inductive and co-inductive methods; - Recursion and co-recursion schemes; - Categorical and graphical methods; - Tool support and proof assistants; - Efficiency and resource usage; - Functional algorithm design; - Calculation case studies. The special issue will also consider papers on program calculation that are not traditional research papers. This may include pearls, surveys, tutorials or educational papers, which will be judged by the usual JFP standards for such submissions. Papers will be reviewed as regular JFP submissions, and acceptance in the special issue will be based on both JFP's quality standards and relevance to the theme. NOTIFICATION OF INTENT Authors must notify the special issue editors of their intent to submit by 20 October 2023. The notification of intent should be submitted by filling out the following form, which asks for data to help identify suitable reviewers: tinyurl.com/intent-to-submit If you miss the notification of intent deadline, but still wish to submit, please contact the special-issue editors. SUBMISSIONS Papers must be submitted by 1 December 2023. Submissions should be typeset in LaTeX using the JFP style file, and submitted through the JFP Manuscript Central system. Choose "Program Calculation" as the paper type, so it gets assigned to the special issue. Further author instructions are available from: tinyurl.com/JFP-instructions We welcome extended versions of conference or workshop papers. Such submissions must clearly describe the relationship with the initial publication, and must differ sufficiently that the author can assign copyright to Cambridge University Press. Prospective authors are welcome to discuss submissions with the editors to ensure compliance.

Specific topics of interest include but are not limited to: - Program derivation and transformation; - Inductive and co-inductive methods; - Recursion and co-recursion schemes; - Categorical and graphical methods; - Tool support and proof assistants; - Efficiency and resource usage; - Functional algorithm design; - Calculation case studies. The special issue will also consider papers on program calculation that are not traditional research papers. This may include pearls, surveys, tutorials or educational papers, which will be judged by the usual JFP standards for such submissions. Papers will be reviewed as regular JFP submissions, and acceptance in the special issue will be based on both JFP's quality standards and relevance to the theme. NOTIFICATION OF INTENT Authors must notify the special issue editors of their intent to submit by 20 October 2023. The notification of intent should be submitted by filling out the following form, which asks for data to help identify suitable reviewers: tinyurl.com/intent-to-submit If you miss the notification of intent deadline, but still wish to submit, please contact the special-issue editors. SUBMISSIONS Papers must be submitted by 1 December 2023. Submissions should be typeset in LaTeX using the JFP style file, and submitted through the JFP Manuscript Central system.

[TYPES/announce] Final Call for Papers: Functional Software Architecture - FP in the Large (** deadline 1st June **)
[ The Types Forum (announcements only), http://lists.seas.upenn.edu/mailman/listinfo/types-announce ] Dear all, The first workshop on "Functional Software Architecture - FP in the Large” will be held in Seattle in Sept 2023, co-located with the ICFP conference. Please submit your best papers, experience reports, and architectural pearls on large-scale functional programming! The submission deadline 1st June 2023. Best wishes, Mike Sperber and Graham Hutton Program Chairs, FUNARCH 2023 == *** FUNARCH 2023 — FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS *** The First ACM SIGPLAN Workshop on Functional Software Architecture - FP in the Large 8th September 2023, Seattle, Washington, USA Co-located with ICFP 2023 https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://tinyurl.com/FUNARCH-23__;!!IBzWLUs!RBoWjftssiOH65YDyISUw90oGDMBJCkGAWLg4lCGhfckp3wUwIm2Aqmuc8DNcYXhzAoM__VPWpUjDkrs7L82nbNvtAd-2SJ2RHG_HV9_kUSO9A$ == TIMELINE: Paper submission 1st June 2023 Author notification 28th June 2023 Camera ready copy 18th July 2023 Workshop 8th Sept 2023 BACKGROUND: "Functional Software Architecture" refers to methods of construction and structure of large and long-lived software projects that are implemented in functional languages and released to real users, typically in industry. The goals for the workshop are: - 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. The workshop follows on from the Functional Software Architecture open space that was held at ICFP 2022 in Slovenia. SCOPE: The workshop seeks submissions in a range of categories: - You're a member of the FP community and have thought about how to support programming in the large, for example by framing functional ideas in architectural terms or vice verse, comparing different languages in terms of their architectural capabilities, clarifying architectural roles played by formal methods, proof assistants and DSLs, or observing how functional concepts are used in other language and architecture communities. Great, submit a research paper! - You're a member of the architecture community, and have thought about how your discipline might help functional programmers, for example by applying domain-driven design, implementing hexagonal architecture, or designing self-contained systems. Excellent, submit a research paper! - You've worked on a large project using functional programming, and it's worked out well, or terribly, or a mix of both; bonus points for deriving architectural principles from your experience. Wonderful, submit an experience report! - You know a neat architectural idiom or pattern that may be useful to others developing large functional software systems. Fabulous, submit an architectural pearl! - You have something that doesn't fit the above categories, but that still relates to functional software architecture, such as something that can be written up, or that could be part of the workshop format like a panel debate or a fishbowl. Superb, submit to the open category! Research papers should explain their research contributions in both general and technical terms, identifying what has been accomplished, explaining why it is significant, and relating it to previous work, and to other languages where appropriate. Experience reports and architectural pearls need not necessarily report original research results. The key criterion for such papers is that they make a contribution from which others can benefit. It is not enough simply to describe a large software system, or to present ideas that are specific to a particular system. Open category submissions that are not intended for publication are not required to follow the formatting guidelines, and can submit in PDF, word or plain text format as preferred. If you are unsure whether your contribution is suitable, or if you need any kind of help with your submission, please email the program chairs at mailto:funarch2...@easychair.org>>.

MPC 2019 will be held in Porto, Portugal from 7-9 October 2019, and is co-located with the International Symposium on Formal Methods, FM 2019. Previous conferences were held in Königswinter, Germany (2015); Madrid, Spain (2012); Québec City, Canada (2010); Marseille, France (2008); Kuressaare, Estonia (2006); Stirling, UK (2004); Dagstuhl, Germany (2002); Ponte de Lima, Portugal (2000); Marstrand, Sweden (1998); Kloster Irsee, Germany (1995); Oxford, UK (1992); Twente, The Netherlands (1989). SCOPE: MPC seeks original papers 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. Typical areas include type systems, program analysis and transformation, programming language semantics, security, and program logics. The notion of a 'program' is interpreted broadly, ranging from algorithms to hardware. Theoretical contributions are welcome, provided that their relevance to program construction is clear. Reports on applications are welcome, provided that their mathematical basis is evident. We also encourage the submission of 'programming pearls' that present elegant and instructive examples of the mathematics of program construction. SUBMISSION: Submission is in two stages. Abstracts (plain text, maximum 250 words) must be submitted by 7th May 2019. Full papers (pdf, formatted using the llncs.sty style file for LaTex) must be submitted by 10th May 2019. There is no prescribed page limit, but authors should strive for brevity. Both abstracts and papers will be submitted using EasyChair. Papers must present previously unpublished work, and not be submitted concurrently to any other publication venue. Submissions will be evaluated by the program committee according to their relevance, correctness, significance, originality, and clarity. Each submission should explain its contributions in both general and technical terms, clearly identifying what has been accomplished, explaining why it is significant, and comparing it with previous work. Accepted papers must be presented in person at the conference by one of the authors. The proceedings of MPC 2019 will be published in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series, as with all previous instances of the conference. Authors of accepted papers will be expected to transfer copyright to Springer for this purpose. After the conference, authors of the best papers from MPC 2019 and MPC 2015 will be invited to submit revised versions to a special issue of Science of Computer Programming (SCP).

MPC 2019 will be held in Porto, Portugal from 7-9 October 2019, and is co-located with the International Symposium on Formal Methods, FM 2019. Previous conferences were held in Königswinter, Germany (2015); Madrid, Spain (2012); Québec City, Canada (2010); Marseille, France (2008); Kuressaare, Estonia (2006); Stirling, UK (2004); Dagstuhl, Germany (2002); Ponte de Lima, Portugal (2000); Marstrand, Sweden (1998); Kloster Irsee, Germany (1995); Oxford, UK (1992); Twente, The Netherlands (1989). SCOPE: MPC seeks original papers 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. Typical areas include type systems, program analysis and transformation, programming language semantics, security, and program logics. The notion of a 'program' is interpreted broadly, ranging from algorithms to hardware. Theoretical contributions are welcome, provided that their relevance to program construction is clear. Reports on applications are welcome, provided that their mathematical basis is evident. We also encourage the submission of 'programming pearls' that present elegant and instructive examples of the mathematics of program construction. SUBMISSION: Submission is in two stages. Abstracts (plain text, maximum 250 words) must be submitted by 26th April 2019. Full papers (pdf, formatted using the llncs.sty style file for LaTex) must be submitted by 3rd May 2019. There is no prescribed page limit, but authors should strive for brevity. Both abstracts and papers will be submitted using EasyChair. Papers must present previously unpublished work, and not be submitted concurrently to any other publication venue. Submissions will be evaluated by the program committee according to their relevance, correctness, significance, originality, and clarity. Each submission should explain its contributions in both general and technical terms, clearly identifying what has been accomplished, explaining why it is significant, and comparing it with previous work. Accepted papers must be presented in person at the conference by one of the authors. The proceedings of MPC 2019 will be published in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) series, as with all previous instances of the conference.
