1990 NACLP Workshop on Prolog Architectures and Sequential Implementations
November 1-2 following NACLP'90 (exact date to be announced)
Hyatt Regency Hotel
Austin Texas USA
Call For Participants
If the history of general purpose computing is a guide, Prolog programmers
will depend upon sequential Prolog implementations on uniprocessor
workstations into the forseeable future. Even parallel implementations of
Prolog will use clusters of commercially available processors.
So, how can commercial architectures be improved to support Prolog and
other symbolic programming languages? How can sequential Prolog
implementations be improved? What compiling techniques are commonly used,
but generally unknown?
You are invited to describe the results of your research in this area, or
present a convincing or controversial position paper at the 1990 NACLP
Workshop on Prolog Architectures and Sequential Implementations. Short
papers (900-2500 words) are solicited on any of the following topics:
- sequential Prolog architectures
- Prolog or symbolic language accelerators
- novel architectures for logic programming
- unpublished sequential Prolog implementation techniques
- novel compiler technology for Prolog implementations
- descriptions of benchmark suites
- comparisons of sequential Prolog implementations
Send two copies of your paper, or e-mail a LaTeX document, by September 24,
1990 to:

Participants will be allotted 20 minutes per presentation, plus a 10 minute
discussion period.
Demonstrations of working systems or implementations are particularly
welcome.
Proceedings of the workshop will be given to presenters and attendees.
