Dear Dr. Van Horn and Dr. Tobin-Hochstadt,

I would appreciate your help in making as many of your colleagues and 
students at Northeastern and in the Boston area aware of our workshop on 
on Functional Programming Concepts in Domain Specific Languages 
(FPCDSL). It will be held on Sunday, 22-Sept as part of ICFP 2013 here 
in Boston next week. Could you forward this message so that they are 
aware of our FPCDSL workshop?

Attached is our Call for Participation and below is our objective statement.

More information can be found at our FPCDSL web site:

Sincerely,
Richard Lazarus and Assaf Kfoury, Chairs

Programming abstractions are currently being defined and developed for a 
variety of new application domains, including quantum computing, 
biologically-inspired computing, distributed systems and networking, 
systems and software with security and privacy guarantees, and cloud 
computing, among others. Well-understood characteristics and features of 
functional programming languages, including both abstractions and static 
analysis techniques, comprise a rich set of tools and conventions for 
constructing DSLs that provide powerful, flexible, and formally 
manageable abstractions that can be applied to certain application 
domains. This workshop seeks to bring together developers and users of 
DSLs who are already exploring, or are interested in exploring, which 
features of functional programming languages can be utilized in their 
application domains, as well as how the inherent properties of their 
application domains affect how such features can be realized in practice.
