2nd International Conference on Principles
and Practice of Declarative Programming
(PPDP 2000)

Montreal, Canada
September 20-22, 2000

associated with PLI 2000:
Colloquium on Principles, Logics, and Implementations of high-level programming languages

PPDP 2001

Scope of the Conference

PPDP represents the union of two former conferences: Programming Languages, Implementations, Logics and Programs (PLILP) and Algebraic and Logic Programming (ALP). Continuing the tradition of PLILP/ALP, PPDP 2000 aims to stimulate research on the use of declarative methods in programming and on the design, implementation and application of programming languages that support such methods. Topics of interest include any aspect related to understanding, integrating and extending programming paradigms such as those for functional, logic, constraint and object-oriented programming; concurrent extensions and mobile computing; type theory; support for modularity; use of logical methods in the design of program development tools; program analysis and verification; abstract interpretation; development of implementation methods; application of the relevant paradigms and associated methods in industry and education. This list is not exhaustive: submissions related to new and interesting ideas relating broadly to declarative programming are encouraged. The technical program of the conference will combine presentations of the accepted papers with invited talks and advanced tutorials.
