Call for papers 18th International Symposium on Principles and Practice of Declarative Programming PPDP 2016
Special Issue of Science of Computer Programming (SCP) -tentative-
Edinburgh, UK, September 5-7, 2016 (co-located with LOPSTR and SAS)

PPDP 2016 is a forum that brings together researchers from the declarative programming communities, including those working in the logic, constraint and functional programming paradigms, but also embracing languages, database languages, and knowledge representation languages. The goal is to stimulate research in the use of logical formalisms and methods for specifying, performing, and analyzing computations, including mechanisms for mobility, modularity, concurrency, object-orientation, security, verification and static analysis. Papers related to the use of declarative paradigms and tools in industry and education are especially solicited. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to
* Functional programming * Logic programming * Answer-set programming * Functional-logic programming * Declarative visual languages * Constraint Handling Rules * Parallel implementation and concurrency * Monads, type classes and dependent type systems * Declarative domain-specific languages * Termination, resource analysis and the verification of declarative programs * Transformation and partial evaluation of declarative languages * Language extensions for security and tabulation * Probabilistic modeling in a declarative language and modeling reactivity * Memory management and the implementation of declarative systems * Practical experiences and industrial application
This year the conference will be co-located with the 26th Int'l Symp. on Logic-Based Program Synthesis and Transformation (LOPSTR 2016) and the 23rd Static Analysis Symposium (SAS 2016).
The conference will be held in Edinburgh, UK. Previous symposia were held at Siena (Italy), Canterbury (UK), Madrid (Spain), Leuven (Belgium), Odense (Denmark), Hagenberg (Austria), Coimbra (Portugal), Valencia (Spain), Wroclaw (Poland), Venice (Italy), Lisboa (Portugal), Verona (Italy), Uppsala (Sweden), Pittsburgh (USA), Florence (Italy), Montreal (Canada), and Paris (France).

Papers must describe original work, be written and presented in English, and must not substantially overlap with papers that have been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal, conference, or workshop with refereed proceedings. Work that already appeared in unpublished or informally published workshop proceedings may be submitted (please contact the PC chair in case of questions).
After the symposium, a selection of the best papers will be invited to extend their submissions in the light of the feedback solicited at the symposium. The papers are expected to include at least 30% extra material over and above the PPDP version. Then, after another round of reviewing, these revised papers will be published in a special issue of SCP with a target publication date by Elsevier of 2017 (tentative).
Important Dates
Abstract submission: 9 May, 2016 Paper submission: 16 May, 2016 Notification: 20 June, 2016 Final version of papers: 17 July, 2016
Symposium: 5-7 September, 2016
Authors should submit an electronic copy of the full paper in PDF. Papers should be submitted to the submission website for PPDP 2016. Each submission must include on its first page the paper title; authors and their affiliations; abstract; and three to four keywords. The keywords will be used to assist the program committee in selecting appropriate reviewers for the paper. Papers should consist of the equivalent of 12 pages under the ACM formatting guidelines. These guidelines are available online, along with formatting templates or style files. Submitted papers will be judged on the basis of significance, relevance, correctness, originality, and clarity. They should include a clear identification of what has been accomplished and why it is significant. Authors who wish to provide additional material to the reviewers beyond the 12-page limit can do so in clearly marked appendices: reviewers are not required to read such appendices.
