[Categories note: continuations have long played an important role in the foundations of programming languages, while "delimited" continuations were invented as an approach to building composition principles for continuations. Contributions to the workshop from categories readers would be very welcome. -NZ] Call for Papers TPDC 2011 1st International Workshop on Theory and Practice of Delimited Continuations http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~saurin/tpdc2011/ 29 May 2011, Novi Sad, Serbia An RDP 2011 workshop - Federated Conference on Rewriting, Deduction, and Programming SCOPE AND TOPIC: Since their introduction in the late 1980s, delimited control operators have triggered increasing interest among programmers and the programming language community, found unexpected applications in conceptual domains such as linguistics and constructive mathematics, and shown themselves to be the natural development of classical control operators. The first workshop on the Theory and Practice of Delimited Continuations aims to bring together people working with the many different (practical, theoretical, or foundational) aspects of delimited continuations, in the hope of fostering some unity and progress. Contributions on all topics related to delimited continuations are welcome, as either short abstracts or full papers (see SUBMISSION PROCEDURE below).
