[program available - late registration still open]

We are proud to announce that the 25th edition of the IFL series returns to its roots at the Radboud University Nijmegen in the Netherlands. The symposium is held from 28th to 30th of August 2013.

Scope ----- The goal of the IFL symposia is to bring together researchers actively engaged in the implementation and application of functional and function-based programming languages. IFL 2013 will be a venue for researchers to present and discuss new ideas and concepts, work in progress, and publication-ripe results related to the implementation and application of functional languages and function-based programming.

Following the IFL tradition, IFL 2013 will use a post-symposium review process to produce the formal proceedings which will be published in the ACM Digital Library. All participants of IFL 2013 are invited to submit either a draft paper or an extended abstract describing work to be presented at the symposium. At no time may work submitted to IFL be simultaneously submitted to other venues; submissions must adhere to ACM SIGPLAN's republication policy:

http://www.sigplan.org/Resources/Policies/Republication

The submissions will be screened by the program committee chair to make sure they are within the scope of IFL, and will appear in the draft proceedings distributed at the symposium. Submissions appearing in the draft proceedings are not peer-reviewed publications. Hence, publications that appear only in the draft proceedings do not count as publication for the ACM SIGPLAN republication policy. After the symposium, authors will be given the opportunity to incorporate the feedback from discussions at the symposium and will be invited to submit a revised full article for the formal review process. From the revised submissions, the program committee will select papers for the formal proceedings considering their correctness, novelty, originality, relevance, significance, and clarity.

Invited Speaker --------------- Lennart Augustsson, currently employed by the Standard Chartered Bank, well-known for his work on Haskell, parallel Haskell, Cayenne, and Bluespec, is the invited speaker of IFL 2013. The title and abstract of his talk is:

"Implementation and Application of Functional Languages - A personal perspective"

It is now over 30 years ago since I implemented my first functional language, and over 15 years ago since I wrote my first commercial application. In this talk I will look back to those bygone days and remind you of things that you might have forgotten or never known. The talk will be absolutely free of anything new.

Peter Landin Prize ------------------ The Peter Landin Prize is awarded to the best paper presented at the symposium every year. The honoured article is selected by the program committee based on the submissions received for the formal review process. The prize carries a cash award equivalent to 150 Euros.
