Generic programs often embody non-traditional kinds<br>of polymorphism; ordinary programs are obtained from them by suitably<br>instantiating their parameters. In contrast with normal programs, the<br>parameters of a generic program are often quite rich in structure; for<br>example they may be other programs, types or type constructors, class<br>hierarchies, or even programming paradigms.<br><br>Generic programming techniques have always been of interest, both to<br>practitioners and to theoreticians, and, for at least 20 years,<br>generic programming techniques have been a specific focus of research<br>in the functional and object-oriented programming communities. Generic<br>programming has gradually spread to more and more mainstream<br>languages, and today is widely used in industry. This workshop brings<br>together leading researchers and practitioners in generic programming<br>from around the world, and features papers capturing the state of the<br>art in this important area.<br><br>We welcome contributions on all aspects, theoretical as well as<br>practical, of<br><br> * polytypic programming,<br> * programming with dependent types,<br> * programming with type classes,<br> * programming with (C++) concepts,<br> * generic programming,<br> * programming with modules,<br> * meta-programming,<br> * adaptive object-oriented programming,<br> * component-based programming,<br> * strategic programming,<br> * aspect-oriented programming,<br> * family polymorphism,<br> * object-oriented generic programming,<br> * and so on.<br><br>Organisers:<br><br>Co-Chair<br>Bruno C. d.
