23rd International Symposium on Principles and Practice of Declarative Programming
Организаторы: Tallinn University of Technology
Контактное лицо: Silvia Ghilezan
emal: [email protected]; [email protected]; [email protected]
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to
Language Design: domain-specific languages; interoperability; concurrency, parallelism and distribution; modules; functional languages; reactive languages; languages with objects; languages for quantum computing; languages inspired by biological and chemical computation; metaprogramming.
Declarative languages in artificial intelligence: logic programming; database languages; knowledge representation languages; probabilistic languages; differentiable languages.
Implementations: abstract machines; interpreters; compilation; compile-time and run-time optimization; memory management.
Foundations: types; logical frameworks; monads and effects; semantics.
Analysis and Transformation: partial evaluation; abstract interpretation; control flow; data flow; information flow; termination analysis; resource analysis; type inference and type checking; verification; validation; debugging; testing.
Tools and Applications: programming and proof environments; verification tools; case studies in proof assistants or interactive theorem provers; certification; novel applications of declarative programming inside and outside of CS; declarative programming pearls; practical experience reports and industrial application; education.
The PC chair will be happy to advise on the appropriateness of a topic.
PPDP 2021 will be co-located with the 31st International Symposium on Logic-Based Program Synthesis and Transformation (LOPSTR 2021).
Submission Guidelines
Submissions can be made in three categories:Research Papers must present original research which isunpublished and not submitted elsewhere. They must not exceed 12 pagesACM style 2-column (including figures, but excluding bibliography).Work that already appeared in unpublished or informallypublished workshop proceedings may be submitted (please contact the PCchair in case of questions). Research papers will be judged onoriginality, significance, correctness, clarity, and readability.
System Descriptions must describe a working system whosedescription has not been published or submitted elsewhere. They must not exceed10 pages and should contain a link to a working system. System Descriptions mustbe marked as such at the time of submission and will be judged on originality,significance, usefulness, clarity, and readability.
Experience Reports are meant to help create a body of published,refereed, citable evidence where declarative programming such as functional,logic, answer-set, constraint programming, etc., is used in practice. They mustnot exceed 5 pages **including references**. Experience Reports must be markedas such at the time of submission and need not report original research results.They will be judged on significance, usefulness, clarity, and readability.
Supplementary material may be provided via a link to an extendedversion of the submission (recommended), or in a clearly marked appendixbeyond the above-mentioned page limits. Reviewers are not required tostudy extended versions or any material beyond the respective pagelimit.
At least one author of each accepted submission will be expected toattend and present the work at the conference. The PC chair may retracta paper that is not presented. The PC chair may also retract a paper ifcomplaints about the paper’s correctness are raised which cannot beresolved by the final paper deadline.
Formatting Guidelines
We plan to use the same publication arrangements as PPDP has had in previous years.
For each paper category, you must use the most recent version of the “CurrentACM Master Template” which is available at<https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template>. The most recent versionat the time of writing is 1.75. You must use the LaTeX sigconf proceedingstemplate as the conference organizers are unable to process final submissions inother formats. In case of problems with the templates, contact ACM’s TeX supportteam at Aptara <[email protected]>.
Authors should note ACM’s statement on author’s rights (http://authors.acm.org/)which apply to final papers. Submitted papers should meet the requirements ofACM’s plagiarism policy(http://www.acm.org/publications/policies/plagiarism_policy).
Publication
We plan to use the same publication arrangements as PPDP has had in previous years.
Venue
The conference will be organised by Tallinn University of Technology, Tallinn, Estonia. It will be decided in due time whether the conference will be in person, virtual or hybrid. More information will be available upon decission.
