******************************** * * * HOR'04 CALL FOR ABSTRACTS * * * ******************************** 2nd international Workshop on Higher-Order Rewriting http://www-i2.informatik.rwth-aachen.de/HOR04/ IMPORTANT DATES: Mar 17 2004 : deadline electronic submission of paper Apr 9 2004 : notification of acceptance of papers Apr 23 2004 : deadline for final version of accepted papers The aim of HOR is to provide an informal and friendly setting to discuss recent work and work in progress concerning higher-order rewriting. INVITED TALKS: Mariangola Dezani Torino Mark-Oliver Stehr Hamburg TOPICS of interest include (but are not limited to): APPLICATIONS: proof checking, theorem proving, generic programming, declarative programming, program transformation. FOUNDATIONS: pattern matching, unification, strategies, narrowing, termination, syntactic properties, type theory. FRAMEWORKS: term rewriting, conditional rewriting, graph rewriting, net rewriting, comparisons of different frameworks. IMPLEMENTATION: explicit substitution, rewriting tools, compilation techniques. SEMANTICS: semantics of higher-order rewriting, higher-order abstract syntax PROGRAM/ORGANIZING COMMITTEE: Delia Kesner Paris kesner@pps.jussieu.fr Femke van Raamsdonk Amsterdam femke@cs.vu.nl Joe Wells Edinburgh jbw@macs.hw.ac.uk HOR'04 SUBMISSIONS: Abstracts between 2 and 5 pages. As HOR is meant to be a platform to discuss ongoing research we are also interested in abstract describing work in progress, or problems in higher-order rewriting. PUBLICATION: The proceedings of HOR 2004 will be published as a technical report of the Computer Science Department of RWTH Aachen. LOCAL ARRANGEMENTS: Juergen Giesl RWTH Aachen, Germany giesl@informatik.rwth-aachen.de
