Subject: LOPSTR'95 Call for Papers

Dear collegue,
enclosed you will find an ascii and a LaTeX version of the Call for Papers
for LOPSTR'95.
Apologies if you receive this message more than once.

Yours Sincerely,

Maurizio Proietti

                      Call for Papers

                         LOPSTR '95
                Fifth International Workshop on
           Logic Program Synthesis and Transformation
        20--22 September 1995, Utrecht, the Netherlands

        Sponsored by the Network in Computational Logic

LOPSTR '95 is the fifth in a series of annual workshops, after those in
Manchester (1991 and 1992), Louvain-la-Neuve (1993), and Pisa (1994). This
time the workshop will take place in Utrecht (the Netherlands) and it will be
run in parallel with PLILP '95, the Seventh International Symposium on
Programming Languages, Implementations, Logics and Programs. LOPSTR and
PLILP will share invited lectures and sessions of common interest. The two
meetings will be organized by the Computer Science Department of Utrecht
University.

The aim of the workshop is to present recent work (including work in
progress) and  discuss new ideas and trends in the following fields: program
synthesis, program transformation, program specialization, partial deduction
all in the context of logic programming. Papers pointing out the
relationships of the above topics with other topics in the field of automated
program development, such as: automated deduction, constructive type theory,
implementation techniques, inductive logic programming, meta-languages,
program analysis, program specification, query optimization in deductive
databases, software engineering, synthesis and transformation in the context
of other programming languages, are welcomed. Papers describing automated
systems for program development and overviews of recent work on the topics of
interest are also solicited. System demonstrations will be possible during
the workshop.

Authors should submit 5 copies of an extended abstract to the
following address by May 25, 1995:

     Maurizio Proietti, IASI-CNR, Viale Manzoni, 30, I-00185 Roma, Italy
     Phone: +39 6 7716426, Fax: +39 6 7716461, E-mail: proietti@iasi.rm.cnr.it

The submissions should include a return postal address and an e-mail
address, if available. Submission of abstracts by e-mail is also accepted
(LaTeX or Postscript). Authors will be notified of acceptance or rejection of
their abstracts for presentation at the workshop by July 20, 1995. The
accepted abstracts will be collected into preliminary proceedings which
will be available at the workshop. Extended abstracts can be completed into
full papers and submitted after the workshop by October 15, 1995.
Submitted papers will be reviewed for publication in the final proceedings
which are planned to be published in the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer
Science series. Authors will be
notified of acceptance or rejection of their papers for the proceedings by
December  1, 1995. Accepted papers must be received in camera-ready form
by January 15, 1996.

The extended abstract should be 5--8 page long (excluding references and
appendices). The following aspects will be relevant for the evaluation of the
submission: originality, clarity, significance, and correctness. In particular,
the abstract should clearly point out the relationships with published work
or submissions by the same authors and it should be understandable by a
broad audience. Proofs may be added in appendix, if needed.
