DAMP2008 Decl. Aspects of Multicore Prog, - *extended* deadline Oct31
by Manuel Hermenegildo 26 Oct '07

26 Oct '07

[ Abstracts due by October 26; Full paper deadline extended: *** October 31, Samoan time *** ] DAMP 2008: Workshop on Declarative Aspects of Multicore Programming San Francisco, CA, USA (colocated with POPL 2008) January 9, 2008 Parallelism is going mainstream. Many chip manufactures are turning to multicore processor designs rather than scalar-oriented frequency increases as a way to get performance in their desktop, enterprise, and mobile processors. This endeavor is not likely to succeed long term if mainstream applications cannot be parallelized to take advantage of tens and eventually hundreds of hardware threads. Multicore architectures will differ in significant ways from their multisocket predecessors. For example, the communication to compute bandwidth ratio is likely to be higher, which will positively impact performance. More generally, multicore architectures introduce several new dimensions of variability in both performance guarantees and architectural contracts, such as the memory model, that may not stabilize for several generations of product. Programs written in functional or (constraint-)logic programming languages, or even in other languages with a controlled use of side effects, can greatly simplify parallel programming. Such declarative programming allows for a deterministic semantics even when the underlying implementation might be highly non-deterministic. In addition to simplifying programming this can simplify debugging and analyzing correctness. DAMP is a one-day workshop seeking to explore ideas in programming language design that will greatly simplify programming for multicore architectures, and more generally for tightly coupled parallel architectures. The emphasis will be on functional and (constraint-)logic programming, but any programming language ideas that aim to raise the level of abstraction are welcome. DAMP seeks to gather together researchers in declarative approaches to parallel programming and to foster cross fertilization across different approaches. Specific topics include, but are not limited to: * suitability of functional and (constraint-)logic programming languages to multicore applications; * run-time issues such as garbage collection or thread scheduling; * architectural features that may enhance the parallel performance of declarative languages; * type systems and analysis for accurately knowing or limiting dependencies, aliasing, effects, and nonpure features; * ways of specifying or hinting at parallelism; * ways of specifying or hinting at data placement which abstract away from any details of the machine; * compiler techniques, automatic parallelization, automatic granularity control; * experiences of and challenges arising from making declarative programming practical; * technology for debugging parallel programs; * design and implementation of domain-specific declarative languages for multi-core; Submission: Submitted papers papers should not exceed 15 pages in LLNCS format.

16 Oct '07

Hello. This is a mail just for informing that TOY version 2.3.1 has been released on 15th, October, 2007 Release notes are attached to the end of this message. Please, see http://toy.sourceforge.net for details. Best regards. P.S. Apologies for multiple receptions =========================================================================== Fernando Sáenz Pérez Profesor Titular de Universidad / Associate Professor Home Page: http://www.fdi.ucm.es/profesor/fernan Tel: + 34 913947642. Fax: + 34 913947547 Despacho / Office: 435 (4ª planta / 4th floor) Dept.

Spain =========================================================================== Release Notes TOY System Version 2.3.1 ====================================== FIXED BUGS - The Linux version did not work. Now, it has been fixed and tested on Ubuntu 6.10, Kubuntu 7.04 (Feisty), and Mandriva Linux 2007 Spring. - Bridge unification did not exactly follow theory. Now, it infers from two bridges with the same variable at an end, the binding of the variables at the other ends. The following example illustrates this point. With version 2.3.0: Toy(R+FD)> X #== RX, Y #== RY, X == Y { Y -> X } { X #== RX, X #== RY } Elapsed time: 0 ms. sol.1, more solutions (y/n/d/a) [y]? no Elapsed time: 0 ms. and with the current version: Toy(R+FD)> X #== RX, Y #== RY, X == Y { Y -> X, RY -> RX } { X #== RX } Elapsed time: 0 ms. sol.1, more solutions (y/n/d/a) [y]? no Elapsed time: 0 ms. - It was possible to enable projection when finite domain and/or real constraint libraries were unloaded. - Missing answers involved in reification when projection was enabled. In particular, the modified built-ins are: #>, #<, #>=, #<=, <, > <==, and >=. ======================================= Message: Address: Action: help majordomo(a)clip.dia.fi.upm.es Info. on useful commands subscribe ciao-users-request(a)clip.dia.fi.upm.es Subscribe to this list unsubscribe ciao-users-request(a)clip.dia.fi.upm.es Unsubscribe from this list <whatever> ciao-users(a)clip.dia.fi.upm.es Send message to list ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Archived messages: http://www.clip.dia.fi.upm.es/Mail/ciao-users/ -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

(Apologies for multiple postings.) FINAL CALL FOR PAPERS Ninth International Symposium on Functional and Logic Programming (FLOPS 2008) April 14-16, 2008 Ise, Japan Submission deadline (abstract): October 10, 2007 Submission deadline (full paper, extended!): October 17, 2007 Keynotes: Peter Dybjer, Naoki Kobayashi, and Torsten Schaub http://www.math.nagoya-u.ac.jp/~garrigue/FLOPS2008/ FLOPS is a forum for research on all issues concerning declarative programming, including functional programming and logic programming, and aims to promote cross-fertilization and integration between the two paradigms. Previous FLOPS meetings were held in Fuji Susono (1995), Shonan Village (1996), Kyoto (1998), Tsukuba (1999), Tokyo (2001), Aizu (2002), Nara (2004), and Fuji Susono (2006). TOPICS FLOPS solicits original papers in all areas of functional and logic programming, including (but not limited to): Declarative Pearls: new and excellent declarative programs with illustrative applications; Language issues: language design and constructs, programming methodology, integration of paradigms, interfacing with other languages, type systems, constraints, concurrency and distributed computing; Foundations: logic and semantics, rewrite systems and narrowing, type theory, proof systems; Implementation issues: compilation techniques, memory management, program analysis and transformation, partial evaluation, parallelism; Applications: case studies, real-world applications, graphical user interfaces, Internet applications, XML, databases, formal methods and model checking. The proceedings are expected to be published as an LNCS volume. The proceedings of the previous meeting (FLOPS2006) were published as LNCS 3945.

Work that already appeared in unpublished or informally published workshops proceedings may be submitted. Submissions should fall into one of the following categories: Regular research papers: they should describe new results and will be judged on originality, correctness, and significance. System descriptions: they should contain a link to a working system and will be judged on originality, usefulness, and design. All submissions must be written in English and can be up to 15 proceedings pages long. Authors are strongly encouraged to use LaTeX2e and the Springer llncs class file, available at http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html Regular research papers should be supported by proofs and/or experimental results. In case of lack of space, this supporting information should be made accessible otherwise (e.g., a link to a web page, or an appendix). Submission is Web-based.
