=========================== SCOPE ===================================
This workshop, a continuation of two successful previous meetings, is
intended to bring together active researchers involved in the design,
development, foundations, and applications of high-level concurrent
programming languages and models.
Programming models should be simple, practical, high-level, and well
founded. These qualities allow rigorous language specifications and
support both formal and informal reasoning about programs. For
concurrent and distributed systems, research on programming models has
driven the design of several recent programming languages including
Erlang, versions of ML, like CML, Facile, and Haskell, as well as
languages explicitly designed for concurrency or distribution such as
Obliq, Oz, Pict, and the join-calculus language. Although the
motivations behind the design of these languages are diverse (ranging
from the development of graphical user interfaces and multi-agent
systems to constraint, real-time, and distributed programming),
suitable foundations have turned out to be quite similar in style and
technique, often based on variants of well-known calculi for mobile
processes.
==================== SUBMISSION & PUBLICATION =======================
Two forms of submission will be considered:
* Short summaries: up to 3 pages, typeset 11 points
* Full papers: up to 12 pages, typeset 11 points,
excluding bibliography and figures
Both forms of submission should include a 100-200 word ASCII abstract
in the covering letter. Simultaneous submissions to other conferences
or journals are not allowed. Electronic submissions in PostScript(tm)
are strongly encouraged; these should be formatted for usletter-size
paper and must be viewable using Ghostview. Please email to the address:
hlcl98@cs.auc.dk
If surface mail is used,
then three (3) copies of the paper should be sent to:
Uwe Nestmann
Department of Computer Science
University of Aalborg
Fredrik Bajers Vej 7E
DK-9220 Aalborg Ø
Denmark
Proceedings will be published (depending on the number of high-quality
papers jointly with EXPRESS'98) as a volume in "Electronic Notes in
Theoretical Computer Science" under the auspices of Elsevier Science
Publishers.
