CALL FOR WORKSHOP AND CO-LOCATED EVENT PROPOSALS<br />
ICFP 2016<br />
21st ACM SIGPLAN International Conference on Functional Programming<br />
<br />
<br />
September 18-24, 2016<br />
Nara, Japan<br />
http://icfpconference.org/icfp2016/<br />
<br />
The 21st ACM SIGPLAN International Conference on Functional Programming<br />
will be held in Nara, Japan on September 18-24, 2016. ICFP provides a<br />
forum for researchers and developers to hear about the latest work on the<br />
design, implementations, principles, and uses of functional programming.<br />
<br />
Proposals are invited for workshops (and other co-located events, such<br />
as tutorials) to be affiliated with ICFP 2016 and sponsored by<br />
SIGPLAN. These events should be less formal and more focused than ICFP<br />
itself, include sessions that enable interaction among the attendees,<br />
and foster the exchange of new ideas. The preference is for one-day<br />
events, but other schedules can also be considered.<br />
<br />
The workshops are scheduled to occur on September 18 (the day<br />
before ICFP) and September 22-24 (the three days after ICFP).<br />
