European Lisp Symposium 2012, Zadar, Croatia.

www.european-lisp-symposium.org

The purpose of the European Lisp Symposium is to provide a forum for the
discussion and dissemination of all aspects of design, implementation
and application of any of the Lisp and Lisp-inspired dialects, including
Common Lisp, Scheme, Emacs Lisp, AutoLisp, ISLISP, Dylan, Clojure, ACL2,
ECMAScript, Racket, SKILL, and so on. We encourage everyone interested
in Lisp to participate.

The main theme of the 2012 European Lisp Conference is “Interoperabilty:
Systems, Libraries, Workflows”. Lisp based and functional-languages
based systems have grown a variety of solutions to become more and more
integrated with the wider world of Information and Communication
Technologies in current use. There are several dimensions to the scope
of the solutions proposed, ranging from “embedding” of interpreters in
C-based systems, to the development of abstractions levels that
facilitate the expression of complex context dependent tasks, to the
construction of exchange formats handling libraries, to the construction
of theorem-provers for the “Semantic Web”. The European Lisp Symposium
2012 solicits the submission of papers with this specific theme in mind,
alongside the more traditional tracks which have appeared in the past
editions.

We invite submissions in the following forms:

Papers: Technical papers of up to 15 pages that describe original
results or explain known ideas in new and elegant ways.

Demonstrations: Abstracts of up to 4 pages for demonstrations of tools,
libraries, and applications.

Tutorials: Abstracts of up to 4 pages for in-depth presentations about
topics of special interest for at least 90 minutes and up to 180 minutes.

Lightning talks: Abstracts of up to one page for talks to last for no
more than 5 minutes.

All submissions should be formatted following the ACM SIGS guidelines
and include ACM classification categories and terms. For more
information on the submission guidelines and the ACM keywords, see:
