Call for Papers
1990 ACM Conferenceon
Lisp and Functional Programming
Nice, France, June 27-29, 1990
The 1990 ACM Conference on LISP and Functional Programming is the sixth
in a series of biennial conferences devoted to the theory, design, and
implementation of programming languages and systems related to LISP,
functional programming, and symbolic computation. The conference is jointly
sponsored by ACM SIGPLAN, SIGACT, and SIGART in cooperation with SIGSAM.
Papers presented at the conference must include new ideas or experimental
results that have not been previously published. Previous conferences have
included papers in the following areas: programming language concepts and
facilities; implementation methods; machine architectures; semantic
foundations; programming logics;and program development environments.
Beyond these areas, authors are strongly encouraged to submit papers
that introduce important new topics that are relevant to
functional programming and symbolic computation.
Authors should submit 11 copies of a technical summary of a prospective
conference paper. The length of the summary should not exceed 3,000 words
(10 pages double-spaced or typeset 11-point on 16-point spacing).
Since the committee expects to receive a large number of submissions,
the summary should be organized so that it is easily understood.
It is important for the summary to identify what has been accomplished,
to explain why it is significant, and to compare it with previous work.
Submissions must be received by December 1, 1989. They should include
a return postal address and an electronic mail address if one is available.
Authors will be notified of the acceptance or rejection of their papers
by February 5, 1990. Full versions of the accepted papers must be received
in camera-ready form by March 23, 1990. Authors of accepted papers will
be required to sign ACM copyright release forms. Proceedings will
be distributed at the conference and will later by available for purchase
from ACM.
The conference will take place at the Acropolis ConventionCenter, in Nice.
Nice is the major city on the French Riviera. It is pleasantly warm in June:
daily highs average 78^o F (25^o C); overnight lows average 58^o F(19^o C).
Nice has a major airport. If you wish to travel before or after the conference,
you will easily reach other cities in Europe. Many people go to the
French Riviera in summer - to go to the beach, to play tennis, to hike
in the mountains or to gamble in the casinos - so you should plan ahead.
