[Pl-seminar] NEPLS Meeting Announcement and Call for Submissions

[dqg@engr.uconn.edu]

The eighth New England Programming Languages and Systems Symposium
will take place on Friday, February 28, 2003 at the University of
Connecticut in Storrs, CT.  Please mark it in your calendars!

The invited speaker is Pascal Van Hentenryck. Pascal is Professor
of computer science at Brown University. He is a pionneer of
Constraint Programming and is the author of several CLP systems and
modeling Languages. He authored and edited several books on the topic
and was recently awarded the INFORMS ICS Award for his work on
Constraint Programming. 

The speaker selection committee solicits talks for this meeting.  To
propose yourself or someone else, send a title, list of authors, and
abstract.  (Optionally, you may provide other brief information that
may help the speaker selection committee assess the proposal.)  We
particularly invite talks by researchers from outside the area who are
visiting on the date of the NEPLS meeting.

Talks can vary in length -- either regular talks (30 or 45 minutes), 
or short talks (5-10 minutes).  The shorter format can be used for
the presentation of smaller results, incipient or preliminary work, 
progress reports on ongoing projects (such as language standards and 
compiler toolkits), and updates to past presentations.  In general, 
NEPLS talks need not sound like conference presentations.

The submission deadline is Monday, February 3, 2003.  Send your 
proposal to talks@nepls.org.  (Replying to this message will work 
in most cases, but some mailing lists masquerade as your correspondents 
-- please check before sending.)
