Each year it hosts internationally-renowned events such as the Edinburgh International Arts, Fringe, Film, TV and Science festivals. Yet it is more than just a tourist attraction. Edinburgh is a thriving commercial and financial centre, the site of the new Scottish Parliament and a gateway to the coastline, hills and open country of the Scottish Highlands. Edinburgh is a beautiful, dynamic, prosperous European city that benefits from a unique architectural heritage and a magnificent natural setting. Edinburgh is also home to a thriving software industry supporting the major financial institutions in the city and creating new products. Over the past years Edinburgh has seen a huge increase in start-ups in the software area. Close to Edinburgh, the Silicon Glen houses major microelectronics, communications and software design companies. Scottish Enterprise, the development agency for Scotland, places a strong emphasis on developing industries providing key infrastructure for the knowledge economy. This is based on the firm foundation of a strong supply of appropriately-qualified graduates from the ten universities in central Scotland. -- ---------------------------------------------------------- Massimo Felici LFCS, School of Informatics The University of Edinburgh JCMB - KB, Mayfield Road Edinburgh EH9 3JZ - UK Tel: +44-131-650 5899 Fax: +44-131-6677 209 E-mail: massimo.felici(a)ed.ac.uk URL: http://www.dcs.ed.ac.uk/home/mas/ ----------------------------------------------------------

SCOPE OF THE CONFERENCE: PPDP 2003 aims to stimulate research in the use of logical formalisms and methods for analyzing, specifying, and performing computations. Of general interest are all aspects surrounding declarative programming paradigms such as logic programming, functional logic programming, and constraint programming. Topics of more specific interest are enhancements to such formalisms with mechanisms for concurrency, mobility, modularity, object-orientation, and static analysis, as well as the fuller exploitation of the programming-as-proof-search framework through new designs and improved implementation methods. At the level of methodology, the use of logic based principles in the design of tools for program development, analysis, and verification relative to all programming paradigms is of interest. Papers related to the use of declarative paradigms and tools in industry and education are especially solicited. This list is not exhaustive: submissions related to new and interesting ideas relating broadly to declarative programming are encouraged. Prospective authors are welcome to communicate with the Program Chair about the suitability of a specific topic. PAPER SUBMISSIONS: Submissions must be made on or before 29 March 2003, noon Central European Time and must be no more than 12 pages (including bibliography and appendices) and in standard ACM conference format: detailed formatting guidelines are available at http://www.acm.org/sigs/pubs/proceed/template.html, along with formatting templates or style files for LaTeX, Word Perfect, and Word.
