[Haskell] PLAN-X 2007: Call for Papers and Demos
[ Dear all, I'd love to see contributions from the Haskell and FP community to this upcoming edition of PLAN-X! Best wishes, -- Torsten ] Call for Papers and Software Demonstrations P L A N - X 2 0 0 7 Programming Language Techniques for XML An ACM SIGPLAN Workshop colocated with POPL 2007 Nice, France -- January 20, 2007 http://www.plan-x-2007.org/ -- PLAN-X 2007 Aim and Scope The XML data model and its associated languages add interesting twists to programming language practice as well as theory. Just like its four predecessors, the PLAN-X 2007 workshop turns the spotlight on how programming languages can embrace, for example, tree-shaped XML data structures, regular expression types extracted from schema descriptions, very small or large XML instances, queries against XML data, and XML transformations. XML reaches deep into all aspects of language design, type systems, compilers, as well as runtimes and PLAN-X 2007 is THE forum to present and discuss novel research work in this area. We invite contributions -- papers as well as software demonstrations -- from members of the programming language, database, theory, and document processing communities and look forward to a workshop in which this diversity of contributions and attendees leads to lively discussion and a fun event. If you are architecting a software system that fuses programming language and XML technology in interesting and innovative ways, please submit a software demonstration proposal to PLAN-X 2007. The workshop program will feature a special demo session. A two-page description of the accepted software demonstrations will be included in the proceedings. PLAN-X 2007 will be held in cooperation with and just after POPL 2007, the 34th ACM SIGPLAN-SIGACT Symposium on Principles of Programming Languages in the Plaza Hotel in Nice, France, on Januar 20, 2007. -- PLAN-X 2007 Topics of Interest Topics of interest include the following (though interesting and/or innovative papers on all aspects of programming languages for XML are welcome): - Design of programming and query languages for XML - Programming in the XML data model itself (e.g., extending XQuery into a full-fledged programming language) - Formal accounts of XML and its processors (based on logic, automata, variants of lambda calculus, etc.) - Compilers and interpreters for XML-aware languages and optimization techniques - Type systems, schema languages, and other constraints (e.g., keys) for tree-shaped data - Tree automata and transducers - Languages and systems that can cope with XML fragments (messages) or very large XML instances (beyond main-memory size) - Programming language glue between browsers, web services, and databases - Pioneering applications of XML-aware language technology -- Proceedings Accepted submissions will be collected to form the informal PLAN-X 2007 proceedings, to be indexed on Michael Ley's DBLP site and distributed at the workshop. The material may thus be published elsewhere at a later date. -- Paper Submission PLAN-X 2007 calls for contributions relevant to the open list of topics sketched above. We explicitly welcome reports on innovative, off-beat, and ''early stage'' approaches as long as the submission reports on original work not published or submitted elsewhere. - Please format your papers according to the ACM guidelines and SIG proceedings templates available at http://www.acm.org/sigs/pubs/proceed/template.html The mandatory submission file format is PDF. - Papers should not exceed 10 pages in length including references and appendices, but shorter abstracts (of, e.g., 2000 words) often suffice and are acceptable as well. - Software demonstration proposals are limited to 2 pages and should include a sketch of the methods you employ as well as a description of what exactly will be demoed. Details on the PLAN-X 2007 paper submission process will be posted on the workshop web site and mailing lists in due course. -- Important Dates - Paper submission: Sun, Oct 1, 2006 - Notification of acceptance: Thu, Nov 23, 2006 - Camera-ready copy due: Sun, Dec 17, 2006 - Workshop: Sat, Jan 20, 2007 -- PLAN-X 2007 Program Committee - Michael Benedikt(Lucent, USA) - Daniela Florescu(Oracle, USA) - Alain Frisch(INRIA Roquencourt, France) - Giorgio Ghelli, Chair (U Pisa, Italy) - Haruo Hosoya(U Tokyo, Japan) - Anders Møller (U Aarhus, Denmark) - Mukund Raghavachari (IBM T.J.
