The 1990 International Symposium on Lucid and Intensional Programming is
calling for participation in its 3rd Annual Symposium.  This symposium
concerns itself with the dataflow language Lucid and, more generally,
the use of intensional concepts in programming languages and systems.
Topics include:
     
1.  Models of Parallel Computation (Dataflow, Eduction, Streams)
2.  Architectures and Implementations
3.  Semantics, Specification and Verification
4.  Applications (AI, Scientific and Engineering)
5.  Real-time Programming
6.  Logic Programming and Intensionality
     
Contributions in other related areas will also be considered.
Participants may submit either an extended abstract (3 to 5 pages) or a
full paper (10 to 15 pages).  A position paper will also be considered.
If possible, please include an e-mail address with all submissions.
     
The Symposium will be held at Kingston, Ontario, a small city located in
the Thousand Islands resort area, mid-way between Toronto and Montreal.
The conference will take place at the Ramada Inn, located on the
waterfront of historic downtown Kingston, within walking distance of a
variety of restaurants, shops and outdoor pubs.
