These dates are just before VLDB, to be held in Zurich, Switzerland, September 11-15, 1995. Gubbio is an attractive medieval town about 150km from Rome, near Perugia, Todi, and Assisi. The areas of interest and the format of DBPL-5 continue in the tradition of its predecessors in Roscoff, Finistere (September 1987), Salishan, Oregon (June 1989), Nafplion, Argolida (August 1991), and Manhattan, New York (August 1993). 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, and active researchers in the area. Papers describing preliminary as well as completed research on themes related to database programming languages are being solicited. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to, data modeling: object-oriented, spatial; collection types, advanced type systems; constraints; programming constructs: logical, functional, imperative; language technology: naming, binding, reflection, type inference, abstraction, modularity; query processing, optimization, compilation, distributed execution; persistence, architectural issues; cooperative databases, transaction management; dynamic aspects: updates, temporal databases, schema evolution, active databases; languages for electronic documents, data exchange formats, and multimedia databases; user interfaces, database programming language environments; implementation issues, benchmarks, analysis of industrial language standards Authors are invited to submit SEVEN copies of an extended abstract (not exceeding ten double-spaced pages) by MARCH 4, 1995. It should include the address and e-mail of the contact author. We also accept and even encourage electronic submissions, PROVIDED they consist of PostScript files that can be printed and ghostviewed under a Unix-like system. In either case, send separately by email the title, authors and a short summary of the paper, and submit to ONLY ONE OF THE PROGRAM CO-CHAIRS: Paolo Atzeni c/o Dipartimento Informatica e Sistemistica Universit`a La Sapienza Via Salaria, 113 00198 Roma, ITALY Tel:+ 39-6-8530.0842 Fax:+ 39-6-8530.0849 atzeni@dis.uniroma1.it, atzeni@iasi.rm.cnr.it (USE BOTH) Val Tannen Computer and Information Science Department University of Pennsylvania 200 S. 33rd St. Philadelphia, PA 19104, USA Tel:+ 1(215)898-2665 Fax:+ 1(215)898-0587 val@cis.upenn.edu OR val@lri.fr PROGRAM COMMITTEE: P.
