============================================================================== OCAML 2013 The OCaml Users and Developers Workshop http://ocaml.org/meetings/ocaml/2013/ Boston, Massachusetts, USA September 24, 2013 CALL FOR PRESENTATIONS Co-located with ICFP 2013 Sponsored by SIGPLAN Talk Proposal Submission Extended Deadline: June 18, 2013 (anywhere on earth) ============================================================================== The first occurrence of the OCaml Users and Developers Workshop was colocated with ICFP 2012, in Copenhagen, following the OCaml Meetings in Paris in 2010 and 2011. OCaml 2013 will be held on September 24, 2013, in Boston, colocated with ICFP 2013. The OCaml Users and Developers Workshop brings together industrial users of OCaml with academics and hackers who are working on extending the language, type system and tools. Discussions will focus on the practical aspects of OCaml programming and the nitty gritty of the tool-chain and upcoming improvements and changes. Thus, we aim to solicit talks on all aspects related to improving the use or development of the language and of its programming environment, including, for example: - compiler developments, new backends, runtime and architectures - practical type system improvements, such as (but not exhaustively) GADTs, first-class modules, generic programming, or dependent types - new library or application releases, and their design rationales - tool enhancements by commercial consultants - prominent industrial uses of OCaml, or deployments in unusual situations. It will be an informal meeting, with an online scribe report of the meeting, but no formal proceedings. Slides of presentations will be available online from the workshop homepage. To submit a talk, please register a description of the talk (about 2 pages long) at http://ocaml.org/meetings/ocaml/2013/talks/ providing a clear statement of what will be brought by the talk: the problems that are addressed, the technical solutions or methods that are proposed. If you wish to perform a demo or require any special setup, we will do our best to accommodate you.
