                     ANNOUNCEMENT AND CALL FOR PAPERS

                                 WAAAPL'99
               The First Workshop on Algorithmic Aspects of
                      Advanced Programming Languages
                http://www.cs.columbia.edu/~cdo/waaapl.html

                               Paris, France
                           September 29-30, 1999

The First Workshop on Algorithmic Aspects of Advanced Programming
Languages will take place in Paris, France as part of PLI'99.
Co-located conferences include ICFP, PPDP (previously known as
PLILP/ALP), and HOOTS.

WAAAPL (pronounced "wapple") seeks papers on all aspects of the
design, analysis, evaluation, or synthesis of algorithms or data
structures in the context of advanced programming languages, such as
functional or logic languages, where traditional algorithms or data
structures may be awkward or impossible to apply. Possible topics
include (but are not limited to)

   - new algorithms or data structures
   - empirical studies of existing algorithms or data structures
   - new techniques or frameworks for the design, analysis, evaluation,
        or synthesis of algorithms or data structures
   - applications or case studies
   - pedagogical issues (language aspects of teaching algorithms or
        algorithmic aspects of teaching languages)

Important dates:

   Submission deadline: June 16, 1999
   Notification of acceptance or rejection: July 28, 1999
   Final papers due: August 25, 1999
   Workshop: September 30, 1999

Submission details:

Prospective authors should submit papers of up to 12 pages to Chris
Okasaki (cdo@cs.columbia.edu) on or before June 16, 1999.  Papers
