Hi Gael, apologies for the delay. We are currently working on a new distribution but in the meantime you have the following solutions: - Install the development version (1.15), which installs Emacs correctly (and is better in general than 1.14). - If you prefer version 1.14 ("stable") you can do it by first installing Emacs using: https://cliplab.org/~clip/Software/Ciao/emacs/Emacs-23-CvsP091103-EmacsW32-… and then running the Ciao 1.14 installer. Please let us know if you have any problems.

[ Please distribute, apologies for multiple postings. ] ************************************************************************ CICLOPS 2017: Second Call for Papers 15th International Colloquium on Implementation of Constraint and LOgic Programming Systems 28th August 2017 Melbourne, Australia https://software.imdea.org/Conferences/CICLOPS2017/ Co-located with ICLP'17, CP'17, and SAT'17. ************************************************************************ Important Dates =============== Abstract Submission: 11 June 2017 Paper Submission: 18 June 2017 Author Notification: 10 July 2017 Camera-ready Copy: 23 July 2017 Dates are intended as Anywhere on Earth. Aims and Scope ============== This workshop aims at discussing and exchanging experience on the design, implementation, and optimization of logic, constraint (logic) programming systems, and other systems based on logic as a means to express computations. Experience backed up by real implementations and their evaluation will be given preference, as well as descriptions of work in progress in that direction. Topics include, but are not limited to: * Sequential implementation schemes (abstract machines, translation to other languages, etc.). * Implementation of concurrent and distributed logic and constraint programming systems. * Implementation of type inference and type checking systems for logic and constraint programming languages. * Compile-time analysis and its application to code generation. * Balance between compile-time effort and run-time machinery, dynamic compilation. * Interaction between high-level optimizations / transformations / specialization and low-level issues. * Memory management and garbage collection issues. * Indexing techniques and optimizations for large size programs. * Optimizations for program generated logic and constraint programs. * Implementation of logic engines in functional and object oriented languages. * Embedding of logic and constraint programming engines in multi-paradigm systems. * Implementation techniques for alternative logic engines and inference mechanisms (ASP, SAT, QSAT, DL etc.). * Implementation of theorem provers, proof assistants and logic based natural language processing systems. * Implementation of object and agent-oriented extensions to logic and constraint programming languages. * Object and module systems. * Design and implementation of declarative I/O concepts for logic and constraint programming languages. * Implementations and ports of logic and constraint programming systems for mobile phones and netbooks. * Documenting, debugging, testing, and profiling tools for logic and constraint programming systems. * Novel compilation methods to modern hardware (e.g. GPUs). Workshop Goals ============== Our intent is to bring together, in an informal setting, people involved in research on sequential and parallel implementation technologies for logic and constraint programming languages and systems, in order to promote the exchange of ideas and feedback on recent developments. We hope that the workshop will provide a meeting point for people working on implementation technology for different aspects of logic and constraint-based languages and systems. Paper Submissions ================= The workshop will welcome all short papers that are technically sound and on-topic, including contributions to theory, reports of interesting applications, reports of work in progress, experience papers, suggestions for new challenging problems, system descriptions, comparison and discussion papers, and improvements to known results/proofs/implementations. All papers must be written in English and should not exceed 15 pages. We welcome also shorter submissions, e.g., extended abstracts and short papers, of at least 3 pages. For all accepted papers, at least one author is required to attend the workshop and give a presentation of 30 minutes including discussion. Submissions must be made in Springer's LNCS format (https://www.springer.com/gp/authors-editors/conference-proceedings/conferen…) via the page: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ciclops2017. A program committee consisting of members from different research groups in the area will review the submissions on EasyChair. Papers will be reviewed by at least two, and usually three, referees. Proceedings =========== The informal workshop proceedings will be available on-line at the Computing Research Repository after the workshop. An electronic copy will also be distributed during the conference. Program Committee ================= Paul Bone (Mozilla) Mats Carlsson (SICS) Michael Hanus (CAU Kiel) Jose F.

LOPSTR 2017: 2nd Call for Papers
by John Patrick Gallagher 02 Jun '17

02 Jun '17

Please distribute, apologies for multiple postings. ] ==================================================================== LOPSTR 2017: 2nd Call for Papers ==================================================================== 27th International Symposium on Logic-Based Program Synthesis and Transformation LOPSTR 2017 https://www.sci.unich.it/lopstr17/ University of Namur, Namur, Belgium October 10 – 12, 2017 (co-located with PPDP 2017) ==================================================================== DEADLINES: Abstract submission: June 6, 2017 Paper/Extended abstract submission: June 13, 2017 ==================================================================== INVITED SPEAKERS: to be announced ==================================================================== The aim of the LOPSTR series is to stimulate and promote international research and collaboration on logic-based program development. LOPSTR is open to contributions in logic-based program development in any language paradigm. LOPSTR has a reputation for being a lively, friendly forum for presenting and discussing work in progress. Formal proceedings are produced only after the symposium so that authors can incorporate this feedback in the published papers. The 27th International Symposium on Logic-based Program Synthesis and Transformation (LOPSTR 2017) will be held at the University of Namur, Belgium; previous symposia were held in Edinburgh, Siena, Canterbury, Madrid, Leuven, Odense, Hagenberg, Coimbra, Valencia, Lyngby, Venice, London, Verona, Uppsala, Madrid, Paphos, London, Venice, Manchester, Leuven, Stockholm, Arnhem, Pisa, Louvain-la-Neuve, and Manchester. LOPSTR 2017 will be co-located with PPDP 2017 (International Symposium on Principles and Practice of Declarative Programming). Topics of interest cover all aspects of logic-based program development, all stages of the software life cycle, and issues of both programming-in-the-small and programming-in-the-large. Both full papers and extended abstracts describing applications in these areas are especially welcome. Contributions are welcome on all aspects of logic-based program development, including, but not limited to: * synthesis * transformation * specialization * composition * optimization * inversion * specification * analysis and verification * testing and certification * program and model manipulation * transformational techniques in SE * applications and tools Survey papers that present some aspects of the above topics from a new perspective, and application papers that describe experience with industrial applications are also welcome. Papers must describe original work, be written and presented in English, and must not substantially overlap with papers that have been published or that are simultaneously submitted to a journal, conference, or workshop with refereed proceedings. Work that already appeared in unpublished or informally published workshop proceedings may be submitted (please contact the PC chair in case of questions). Important Dates Abstract submission: Jun 6, 2017 Paper/Extended abstract submission: Jun 13, 2017 Notification: July 25, 2017 Camera-ready (for electronic pre-proceedings): tba, 2017 Symposium: October 10-12, 2017 Submission Guidelines Authors should submit an electronic copy of the paper (written in English) in PDF, formatted in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science style. Each submission must include on its first page the paper title; authors and their affiliations; contact authors email; abstract; and three to four keywords which will be used to assist the PC in selecting appropriate reviewers for the paper. Page numbers (and, if possible, line numbers) should appear on the manuscript to help the reviewers in writing their report. Submissions cannot exceed 15 pages including references but excluding well-marked appendices not intended for publication. Reviewers are not required to read the appendices, and thus papers should be intelligible without them. Papers should be submitted via the Easychair submission website for LOPSTR 2017: [http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=lopstr2017] (can be accessed also through the LOPSTR 2017 web site). Best Paper Award and Prize A best paper award will be granted, which will include a 500 EUR prize provided by Springer. This award will be given to the best paper submitted to the conference, based on the relevance, originality, and technical quality. The program committee may split the award among two or more papers, also considering authorship (e.g., student paper). Proceedings The formal post-conference proceedings will be published by Springer in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series. Full papers can be directly accepted for publication in the formal proceedings, or accepted only for presentation at the symposium and inclusion in informal proceedings. After the symposium, all authors of extended abstracts and full papers accepted only for presentation will be invited to revise and/or extend their submissions in the light of the feedback solicited at the symposium. Then, after another round of reviewing, these revised papers may also be published in the formal proceedings.
