*** Overview ***
Answer Set Programming is by now a well-established paradigm of
declarative programming. While close in syntax to prolog-like
logic programming, its semantics is based on a program having a number
of answer sets, that represent possible consistent "views"
on the "world" defined by the program itself.
Answer Set Programming can be seen under several points of view:
as a knowledge representation language strongly related to non-=20
monotonic reasoning,
as a programming language suitable to many application domains
where incomplete/uncertain information may occur,
as an underlying formalism for many extensions tailored to
specific application domains.
An increasingly important application area is that
of databases and data integration systems,
where the need of constructing and managing
a unified view of data originating from different heterogeneous
and possibly distributed sources calls for increased flexibility in
managing inconsistency.
*** Topics: ***
All with focus on Answer Set Programming, among which:
* foundations
* extensions
* ASP-based programming languages
* reasoning about action and change
* causal reasoning
* reasoning with uncertain knowledge
* planning, diagnosis, learning
* representation of and reasoning about complex systems
* deductive databases
* data integration systems
* ASP and agents
* specification and verification of formal properties
* implementations and benchmarks
* tools and methodologies for ASP-programming
* (innovative) application domains

Hi!
I'm setting up public Prolog standardization discussion forums at:
http://prolog.logtalk.org/
The forums are open to all people willing to contribute to improve =20
the current Prolog standards and standardization proposals.
My hope is that by making the current standardization process more =20
open and public we can attract more interested parties and more =20
feedback on the current proposals. The current model of using mailing =20=
lists is too closed and restricted and only a few people are able to =20
attend and participate in the official ISO meetings.
In the forums you will find links to the current standardization =20
proposals and to some of the earlier mailing list discussions. A wiki =20=
is also planned in the near future to allow forum discussions to be =20
summarized, providing a more suitable collaboration tool to get the =20
text of the final standardization proposals in shape for balloting.
All the best,
Paulo
P.S. I will be personally paying for the hosting costs, hence the =20
domain name used for the forums.

Call For Papers
CICLOPS 2007
Colloquium on Implementation of Constraint LOgic Programming Systems
http://www.di.uevora.pt/ciclops07/
October 8/13, 2007
To be held in conjunction with ICLP 2007 -
23nd International Conference on Logic Programming
Porto, Portugal
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Overview
--------
The last years have witnessed continuous progress in the technology
available both for academic and commercial computing environments.
Examples include more processor performance, increased memory capacity
and bandwidth, faster networking technology, operating system support
for cluster computing and the generalized use of mutiprocessor
systems, including in particular multicore microprocessors. These
improvements, combined with recent advances in compilation and
implementation technologies, are causing high-level languages to be
regarded as good candidates for programming complex, real world
applications. Techniques aiming at achieving flexibility in the
language design make powerful extensions easier to implement; on the
other hand, implementations which reach good performance in terms of
speed and memory consumption make declarative languages and systems
amenable to develop non-trivial applications.
Logic Programming and Constraint Programming, in particular, seem to
offer one of the best options, as they couple a high level of
abstraction and a declarative nature with an extreme flexibility in
the design of their implementations and extensions and of their
execution model. This adaptability is key to, for example, the
implicit exploitation of alternative execution strategies tailored for
different applications (e.g., for domain-specific languages) without
unnecessarily jeopardizing efficiency.
CICLOPS 2007 continues a tradition of successful workshops on
Implementations of Logic Programming Systems, previously held with in
Budapest (1993) and Ithaca (1994), the Compulog Net workshops on
Parallelism and Implementation Technologies held in Madrid (1993 and
1994), Utrecht (1995) and Bonn (1996), the Workshop on Parallelism and
Implementation Technology for (Constraint) Logic Programming Languages
(ParImp) held in Port Jefferson (1997), Manchester (1998), Las Cruces
(1999), and London (2000), and more recently the Colloquium on
Implementation of Constraint and LOgic Programming Systems (CICLOPS)
in Paphos (Cyprus, 2001), Copenhagen (2002), Mumbai (2003), Saint-Malo
(France, 2004), Sitges (Spain, 2005), Seattle (USA, 2006), and the
CoLogNet Workshops on Implementation Technology for Computational
Logic Systems held in Madrid (2002), Pisa (2003) and Saint-Malo
(France, 2004).
Workshop Description
--------------------
The workshop aims at discussing and exchanging experience on the
design, implementation, and optimization of logic and constraint
(logic) programming systems, or systems intimately related to logic as
a means to express computations. Preference will be given to the
analysis and description of implemented (or under implementation)
systems and their associated techniques, problems found in their
development or design, and steps taken towards the solutions.
The workshop topics include, but are not limited to:
- Implementation of standard/alternative sequential models
(generalization and modification of the WAM, translation to
lower-level and/or general-purpose languages, etc.);
- Implementation of parallel/concurrent models;
- Interaction between high-level optimizations/transformations and
lower-level issues;
- Compile-time analysis and its application to code generation;
- Balance between compile-time effort and run-time machinery;
- Memory management, indexing, and garbage collection issues;
- Profiling tools and performance evaluation;
- Implementation techniques for declarative programming paradigms with
basis on, or extending, logic and constraint programming, such as
non-monotonic reasoning, inductive logic programming, natural
language processing systems, etc;
- Software design with and for (C)LP systems: components, patterns, etc.;
- Design and implementation of programming environments;
- Experiences from using systems in real-life applications.
Workshop Format
---------------
The workshop will emphasize discussion and cross-fertilization, so
presentations will be balanced with discussion time. In this
direction, the workshop is seeking high quality papers that address
cutting-edge research in this field, and that can contribute to the
discussion. The agenda will include paper presentations, a panel
discussion, and possibly an invited speaker. At least one author of
each accepted submission is expected to attend the workshop.
Important Dates
---------------
Paper Submission Deadline: July 1st, 2007 (strict)
Notifications to Authors: August 1st, 2007
Camera-ready Version Deadline: August 20th, 2007
CICLOPS 2007 Workshop: September 8 or 13, 2007 (TBA)
Submission Guidelines
---------------------
Participants should submit a paper (maximum 15 pages, PDF format),
describing their work in topics relevant to the workshop. Accepted
papers will be presented during the workshop. At least one author
of an accepted contribution is expected to register for the
workshop, and present the paper. All submissions should include the
author's name(s), affiliation, complete mailing address, and email
address.
Authors are requested to prepare their submissions, following the
LNCS/LNAI Springer format. Please see:
http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html
for further details.
The submission should be submitted through the electronic submission
site, accessible via the workshop web page. The deadline for
receipt of submissions is July 1, 2007. Papers received after this
date may not be reviewed. Eligible papers will be peer-reviewed by
at least three members of the Program Committee. Authors will be
notified via email of the results by August 1, 2007. Authors of
accepted papers are expected to improve their paper based on
reviewers' comments and to send a camera ready version of their
manuscripts by August 20, 2007.
Accepted papers will be included in the workshop proceedings, which
will be distributed to the participants.

International Conference on Logic Programming
Third Doctoral Consortium
Porto, Portugal
September 8-13, 2007
http://www.cs.nmsu.edu/~epontell/DC2007
-----------
The 2007 ICLP Doctoral Consortium (DC) is the third international
doctoral consortium to be offered as part of the International
Conference on Logic Programming. The DC will take place during ICLP
2007 in Porto, Portugal. The Doctoral Consortium is designed for
doctoral students working in areas related to logic programming, as
well as Master's students interested in pursuing doctoral degrees in
the field of logic programming.
The Doctoral Consortium aims to provide students with an opportunity
to present and discuss their research directions and to obtain
feedbacks from peers as well as world-renown experts in the field.
The Doctoral Consortium will also offer invited speakers and panels
discussions.
------------
The Doctoral Consortium is held the during the regular activities of
the ICLP 2007 Conference. The aims of the Doctoral Consortium are:
* To provide doctoral students working in the field of logic and
constraint programming with a friendly and open forum to present
their research ideas, listen to ongoing work from peer students,
and receive constructive feedback
* To provide students with relevant information about important
issues for doctoral candidates and future academics
* To develop a supportive community of scholars and a spirit of
collaborative research.
* To support a new generation of researchers with information and
advice on academic, research, industrial, and non-traditional
career paths.
The Consortium is designed for students currently enrolled in a Ph.D.
program, though we are also open to exceptions (e.g., students
currently in a Masters program and interested in doctoral studies).
The Consortium is for students at any stage of their doctoral studies
are welcome to apply. Applicants are expected to be conducting
research in the field of Logic Programming; topics of interest include
(but are not limited to):
* Theoretical Foundations of Logic and Constraint Logic Programming
* Sequential and Parallel Implementation Technology
* Static and Dynamic Analysis, Abstract Interpretation, Compilation
Technology, Verification
* Logic-based Paradigms (e.g., Answer Set Programming, Concurrent
Logic Programming, Inductive Logic Programming)
* Innovative Applications of Logic Programming
The Consortium allows participants to interact with established
researchers and with other students, through presentations, question-
answer sessions, panel discussions, and invited presentations. The
Doctoral Consortium will provide the possibility to reflect - through
short activities, information sessions, and discussions - on the
process and lessons of research and life in academia. Each participant
will give a short, critiqued, research presentation.
The Doctoral Consortium will be held on a date to be determined, in
parallel with the regular activities of the ICLP 2007 conference; the
ICLP conference will run from September 8th to September 13th, 2007.
Doctoral Consortium participants will be offered the opportunity to
have their abstracts published in the ICLP 2007 conference
proceedings.
Discussants:
Several renowned faculty members and researchers in the field of Logic
Programming will join in evaluating the submission packets and will
participate in the Doctoral Consortium, providing feedback to the
presenters. The list of the discussants will be published at a later
date.

WLPE' 07 - CALL FOR PAPERS
Workshop on Logic-based Methods in
Programming Environments
(satellite workshop of ICLP'07)
September 13, 2007
Porto, Portugal
http://www.comp.leeds.ac.uk/hill/WLPE07/
-----------------------------------------------------------
The 17th Workshop on Logic-based methods in Programming Environments
will take place in Porto, Portugal, as a satellite workshop
of ICLP'07, the 23th International Conference on Logic Programming.
This workshop will continue the series of successful international
workshops on logic programming environments held in Ohio, USA (1989),
Eilat, Israel (1990), Paris, France (1991), Washington, USA (1992),
Vancouver, Canada (1993), Santa Margherita Ligure, Italy (1994),
Portland, USA (1995), Leuven, Belgium and Port Jefferson, USA (1997),
Las Cruces, USA (1999), Paphos, Cyprus (2001), Copenhagen, Denmark
(2002), Mumbai, India (2003), Saint Malo, France (2004), Sitges,
Spain (2005) and Seattle, Washington USA (2006).
The workshop aims at providing an informal meeting for researchers
working on logic-based tools for development and analysis of programs.
In addition to papers describing more conceptual work on environmental
tools, we solicit papers describing the implementation of and
experimentation with such tools.
Areas particularly relevant to the workshop include:
* static and dynamic analysis
* debugging and testing
* program verification and validation
* code generation from specifications
* termination and non-termination analysis
* reasoning on occurs-check freeness and determinacy
* profiling and performance analysis
* type- and mode analysis
* module systems
* optimization tools
Note that this list is not exhaustive and, if you are interested in
taking part in the workshop but unsure if your work falls within its
scope, do contact the organisers who will be happy to advise.
Submission guidelines
---------------------
We invite the submission of full papers which, excluding references,
should not exceed 16 pages, or short papers describing work in
progress which should be no more than 6 pages. Authors are requested
to submit their paper in standard postscript or pdf format (preferable
in Springer LNCS style) to:

Hi,
I have been trying all the possible solutions that you suggested me but no
one of them works for the case that I'm working in. The problem is that in
CIAO the execution of the predicate stream_property(S,file_name(L)) returns
in L the whole path of the file associated to S but it does as an atom
without ' '. When I run the predicate
no_path_file_name(L,Name) to the result of running
stream_property(S,file_name(L)) it returns in Name the whole path of the
file.
It happens as well when we try to get the name of the file from a path in
the situation shown in the next example:
L= /directory/directory/file.
no_path_file_name(L,Name).
Name= /directory/directory/file.
If the predicate file_name returned the path in that way
'/directory/directory/file' the predicate no_path_file_name, and the others
that you also have suggested,would work but this is not the case.
Thanks.
Lorea

Hi,
I'm interested in getting the name of a file from its path, which I have
obtained by using the function stream_property(S,file_name(L)).
This function returns in the variable L the absolut path of the file
associated with the stream S.
The only way I can think how to get the name of the file is by obtaining a
list of characters associated with the atom contained in L (the path).
The problem is that L variable contains the atom without ' and at the same
time contains at least one time the character /. It provokes that no one of
the functions atom_chars or atom_codes works.
Can you think of any other way to achive it?
Thanks.
