		     The Computer Science department
		 of the University of Tunis II (Tunisia)
				and the
    Institut National de Recherche en Informatique et Automatisme (France)
			     organise the :

	     TENTH TUNISIAN FRENCH SEMINAR OF COMPUTER SCIENCE

		      Tunis, Tunisia, May 23-25 1989

		Topic : The Role of Languages in Programming

      Sponsors : ACM, AFCET, IEEE, IFIP, TIPS.

      Objet.   Ever since the beginnings of computing, languages have always
 been a hot topic : programming languages ; specification languages ; design
 languages ; query languages ; etc ...	 The importance of languages in pro-
 gramming is subject to debate	:  while some consider their role secondary,
 emphasizing methods and tools,	 others consider them critical for the acti-
 vity of programming,  and continue their quest	 for ever more powerful lan-
 guages.

      The subject of this conference is to present, compare and assess vari-
 ous languages (existing or being developed) vis-a`-vis qualities that users
 consider important.  A (non exhaustive) list of such qualities is given be-
 low : reuse, applicability of refinement techniques, ease of design, assoc-
 iated proof techniques,  tunability,  continuity  vis-a`-vis  specification
 notations, efficiency. These qualities can be realized by means of a number
 of quality factors, such as : modularity, inheritance, genericity.

      Submissions are sought (4 copies) according to these guidelines :	 the
 text must be typed on one side of sheets only, and must leave ample margins
 on both sides; it must not exceed 30 pages, doubled spaced ; the first page
 must include the complete identification of the author and his affiliation.
 Submissions are accepted  in french and english : french contributions must
 be addressed to  Prof. Jean-Pierre Finance, CRIN BP 239,  54506 Vandoeuvre-
 les-Nancy, France; english submissions must
 be addressed to Dr Ali Mili, Faculty of Sciences of Tunis, Belve'de`re 1002
 Tunisia.
 Conference proceedings	 will be published.  Futhermore, the best papers  in
 english will be included  in a special issue of  the Journal of Systems and
 Software ; and the best papers	 submitted in french  will be included	in a
 special issue of Technique et Science Informatique.  The conference will be
 preceded by a set of tutorials dealing with languages.

      IMPORTANT DATES:
	Deadline for submitting papers : November 15, 1988
	Notification of acceptance : February 1st, 1989
	Camera ready manuscripts due : March 3rd, 1989.
