Call for Papers
SIXTH INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON
DATABASE PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES (DBPL)
August 18-20, 1997 Estes Park, Colorado
http://www-rocq.inria.fr/~cluet/dbpl.html
(latex source of call for papers is attached below)
The Sixth International Workshop on Database Programming Languages
(DBPL-6) will take place in Estes Park, Colorado, on August 18-20,
1997. The meeting will be held at a lodge that provides grand Rocky
Mountain views, horse-back and mountain bike riding, hiking, and other
amenities of the wild west.
The DBPL workshops focus on the interaction of database theory and
practice with the design and development of programming languages.
DBPL-6 will continue in the tradition of its predecessors in Roscoff,
Finistere (September 1987), Salishan, Oregon (June 1989), Nafplion,
Argolida (August 1991), Manhattan, New York (August 1993) and Gubbio,
Umbria (August 1995). The meeting will be small and informal,
providing forums for prepared presentations, panels, and discussions.
Participation will be by invitation of the program committee and will
be restricted primarily to authors of accepted papers, and active
researchers in the area. Papers describing preliminary as well as
completed research on themes related to database programming languages
are solicited.
TOPICS: Topics of interest include, but are not limited to,
Data Modeling: object-oriented, object-relational, spatial,
collection types, advanced type systems;
Language Technology: naming, binding, reflection, type
inference, abstraction, modularity, persistence;
Programming Paradigms: logical, functional, imperative, constraint;
Queries and Transactions: expressiveness, optimization, compilation,
distributed execution;
Dynamic Aspects: updates, temporal databases, schema evolution,
active databases;
Implementation issues: algorithms, storage structures, benchmarks,
analysis of industrial standards;
Languages for electronic documents, data exchange formats,
and multimedia databases;
Cooperative databases;
User interfaces;
Database programming language environments.
SUBMISSIONS: Authors are invited to submit seven copies of an extended
abstract (not exceeding ten double-spaced pages) by March 10, 1997.
The coverpage should include the address and e-mail of the contact
author. We also encourage electronic submissions, provided they
consist of PostScript files that can be printed and ghostviewed under
a Unix-like system. In either case, send separately by email the
title, authors and a short summary of the paper. Submit both paper
and summary information to only one of the program co-chairs:
