11th International Workshop on Functional and (Constraint) Logic Programming

                            Grado, Italy

===============================================================================

GENERAL

The international workshop on functional and (constraint) logic programming WFLP 2002 aims to bring together researchers interested in functional programming, (constraint) logic programming, as well as their integration.  Recent edition of the workshop have been held in Kiel (Germany), Benicassim (Spain), Grenoble (France), Bad Honnef (Germany).

This workshop aims to promote the cross-fertilizing exchange of ideas and experiences among researches and students from the different communities interested in the foundations, applications, software engineering techniques and combinations of high-level, declarative (constraint) programming languages and related areas.  The technical program of the workshop will include invited talks, presentations of refereed papers and demo presentations.

The WWW page of the workshop is:

TOPICS

The topics of interest include (but are not limited to):

*  Functional programming
*  Logic programming
*  Constraint programming
*  Deductive databases
*  Extensions of declarative languages
*  Multi-paradigm declarative programming
*  Foundations, semantics, non-monotonic reasoning, dynamics

BEST NEWCOMER AWARD

0An award will be given to the best paper exclusively written by one or several young researchers who have not yet obtained their PhD degrees.  Papers written in this category should be clearly marked "Student papers" in the submission.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
PROGRAM

The workshop will be a 3-day event including presentations of the accepted papers, system demos, and

2 INVITED TALKS (to be announced)

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
LOCATION

WFLP 2002 will take place in Grado, Italy.
Grado is an island located on the Adriatic coast in a beautiful lagoon.  It is famous for its attractive beaches, for its Roman history, and for the pleasant middleuropean atmosphere.  Venezia is 100 km away and Trieste is 60 km away.
