% PRELIMINARY CALL FOR PAPERS %
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
ESOP is an annual conference devoted to fundamental issues in the specification
analysis and implementation of programming languages and systems.
This includes
- design of programming languages and calculi;
- studies of their formal properties;
- techniques, methods and tools for their implementation;
- exploitation of programming styles within different programming paradigms;
- automatic and manual methods for reasoning about programs; and
- the design and invention of systems and tools to assist in
exploitation of the languages.
Contributions bridging the gap between theory and practice are
particularly welcome. Topics traditionally covered by ESOP include:
programming paradigms and their integration, semantics,
calculi of computation, security, advanced type systems,
program analysis, program transformation, and practical algorithms
based on theoretical developments.
