Call for Papers Third International Workshop on Database Programming Languages August 27 - 30, 1991 in Nafplion Greece The third International Workshop on Database Programming Languages (DBPL-3) will take place in Nafplion Greece, August 27 - 30, 1991. These dates are just before the VLDB-91 conference, to be held in Barcelona Spain, September 3 - 6. The workshop will focus on the development of novel programming languages and environments for databases and data-intensive applications. The areas of interest and the format of DBPL-3 continue in the tradition of its predecessors: Roscoff France (September 1987) and Salishan Oregon USA (June 1989). The meeting will be small and informal, providing forums for prepared presentations, panels, and discussions. Participation will be by invitation of the program committee and will be restricted primarily to authors of accepted papers. The committee now solicits papers describing preliminary as well as completed research on themes related to database programming languages. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, data modeling: object-oriented, logical, functional typing: type inference, inheritance, bulk types language technology: naming, binding, reflection dynamic aspects: updates, temporal databases, schema evolution system implementation: persistence, modularization, architectural issues optimization aspects: query processing, compilation transaction management: concurrency, recovery, active databases user interfaces, database programming language environments new database applications, heterogeneous databases Authors are invited to submit ten copies of an extended abstract (not exceeding ten pages) by March 11, 1991 to one of the program co-chairmen: Paris Kanellakis Joachim Schmidt Computer Science Fachbereich Informatik Brown University Universitaet Hamburg P.O.
