The Symposium on Trends in Functional Programming (TFP) is an
international
forum for researchers with interests in all aspects of functional
programming,
taking a broad view of current and future trends in the area. It aspires
to
be a lively environment for presenting the latest research results, and
other
contributions.
This year, TFP will take place in-person at Seton Hall University, in
South
Orange, NJ in the United States. It is co-located with the Trends in
Functional
Programming in Education (TFPIE) workshop, which will take on the day
before
the main symposium.
Please be aware that TFP has several submission deadlines. The first,
November 4,
is for authors that wish to have their full paper reviewed prior to the
symposium.
Papers that are accepted in this way must also be presented at the
symposium. The
second, November 30, is for authors that wish to present their work or
work-in
progress at the symposium first without submitting to the full review
process for
publication. These authors can then take into account feedback received
at the
symposium and submit a full article for review by the third deadline,
February 23.
## Scope
The symposium recognizes that new trends may arise through various
routes. As part
of the Symposium's focus on trends we therefore identify the following
five article
categories. High-quality articles are solicited in any of these
categories:
* Research Articles:
Leading-edge, previously unpublished research work
* Position Articles:
On what new trends should or should not be
* Project Articles:
Descriptions of recently started new projects
* Evaluation Articles:
What lessons can be drawn from a finished project
* Overview Articles:
Summarizing work with respect to a trendy subject
Articles must be original and not simultaneously submitted for
publication to any
other forum. They may consider any aspect of functional programming:
theoretical,
implementation-oriented, or experience-oriented. Applications of
functional
programming techniques to other languages are also within the scope of
the symposium.
Topics suitable for the symposium include, but are not limited to:
* Functional programming and multicore/manycore computing
* Functional programming in the cloud
* High performance functional computing
* Extra-functional (behavioural) properties of functional programs
* Dependently typed functional programming
* Validation and verification of functional programs
* Debugging and profiling for functional languages
* Functional programming in different application areas:
security, mobility, telecommunications applications, embedded
systems, global computing, grids, etc.
* Interoperability with imperative programming languages
* Novel memory management techniques
* Program analysis and transformation techniques
* Empirical performance studies
* Abstract/virtual machines and compilers for functional languages
* (Embedded) domain specific languages
* New implementation strategies
* Any new emerging trend in the functional programming area
If you are in doubt on whether your article is within the scope of TFP,
please contact
the TFP 2024 program chair, Jason Hemann.
## Best Paper Awards
TFP awards two prizes for the best papers each year.
First, to reward excellent contributions, TFP awards a prize for the
best overall paper
accepted for the post-conference formal proceedings.
Second, each year TFP also awards a prize for the best student paper.
TFP traditionally
pays special attention to research students, acknowledging that students
are almost by
definition part of new subject trends. A student paper is one for which
the authors
state that the paper is mainly the work of students, the students are
the paper's first
authors, and a student would present the paper.
In both cases, it is the PC of TFP that awards the prize. In case the
best paper happens
to be a student paper, then that paper will receive both prizes.
## Instructions to Authors
Authors must submit papers to:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=tfp24
Authors of papers have the choice of having their contributions formally
reviewed either
before or after the Symposium. Further, pre-symposium submissions may
either be full
(earlier deadline) or draft papers (later deadline).
## Pre-symposium formal review
Papers to be formally reviewed before the symposium should be submitted
before the early
deadline and will receive their reviews and notification of acceptance
for both presentation
and publication before the symposium. A paper that has been rejected for
publication but
accepted for presentation may be resubmitted for the post-symposium
formal review.
## Post-symposium formal review
Draft papers will receive minimal reviews and notification of acceptance
for presentation at
the symposium. Authors of draft papers will be invited to submit revised
papers based on the
feedback receive at the symposium. A post-symposium refereeing process
will then select a
subset of these articles for formal publication.
## Paper categories
Draft papers and papers submitted for formal review are submitted as
extended abstracts (4 to
10 pages in length) or full papers (20 pages). The submission must
clearly indicate which
category it belongs to: research, position, project, evaluation, or
overview paper. It should
also indicate which authors are research students, and whether the main
author(s) are students.
A draft paper for which all authors are students will receive additional
feedback by one of the
PC members shortly after the symposium has taken place.
## Format
Papers must be written in English, and written using the LNCS style. For
more information about
formatting please consult the Springer LNCS Guidelines web site:

Our department has an open position for a new faculty member. Since some of the members of this list might be insterested I am forwarding the announcement. Fell free to share this announcement with any interested people or other mailing lists.
Marc Feeley
TENURE-TRACK FACULTY POSITION IN EMERGING FIELDS IN COMPUTER SCIENCE
University of Montreal
Faculty of Arts and Sciences
Department of Computer Science and Operations Research (DIRO)
Deadline: January 5th, 2024
The DIRO is seeking …
[View More]outstanding candidates for a full-time tenure-track faculty position at the rank of Assistant Professor starting on June 1, 2024. We are seeking candidates of exceptional scientific talent who have demonstrated research success and shown evidence of high potential in any emerging field of computer science related to, but not limited to, Internet of Things, Cyber-physical systems, Cybersecurity, Cloud computing and Infrastructure, Data management, Application of Software Engineering to an emerging field (digital twins, smart manufacturing), etc. Candidates working in the field of machine learning will not be considered for this position and are encouraged to apply to the corresponding open positions.
The candidate has the possibility to become an academic member of the IVADO data science community. In addition, depending on their expertise and interest, they may be considered for an IVADO professorship, which offers enhanced start-up conditions. The candidate would then participate in the ambitious project (IAR3) for the development and adoption of robust, reasoning and responsible artificial intelligence, for which IVADO has just been awarded a Canada First Research Excellence Fund.
The candidate is expected to teach undergraduate and graduate courses, supervise graduate students, be active in research, publication and the diffusion of knowledge, and contribute to the activities of the University.
The position requires a Ph.D. in Computer Science or a related area, a strong research record illustrating the candidate's ability to publish influential work in top-tier venues of an emerging field, and a demonstrated ability to provide high quality university teaching.
The University of Montreal is a Quebec university with an international reputation. French is the teaching language. Nevertheless, non-French speaking candidates are welcome to apply, since the university is intensively recruiting the world's best specialists to renew its teaching faculty. Furthermore, the university provides support for newly-recruited faculty to attain proficiency in French within a reasonable period of time.
The University of Montreal offers competitive salaries and a full range of benefits.
A complete application must include: a cover letter, resume, copies of recent publications demonstrating the candidate's research performance at the highest levels of an emerging field, a research statement, and a teaching statement. Three letters of recommendation must also be sent directly to the Department Chair by the referees. The application and letters of recommendation must be sent by email to the Chair of the DIRO before January 5th, 2024:
