Link to FLOPS 2008 symposium is added.
(Thanks to Jacques Garrigue.)
FLOPS 2008 will be held on April 14 to 16, right after Continuation
Fest.
Description
Continuations are used, and constantly re-discovered, in web
programming, logic, event-based concurrency, linguistics, transactional
systems, optimization, program generation and verification. Programming
language systems -- including Scheme, OCaml, Ruby, Python, Haskell,
Coq -- are (re-)implementing continuations, generators, iterators and
related control structures. Continuations are also being studied for
their own sake.
We call for an informal gathering of people working in all these
areas as well as meet each other and strengthen the community.
Call for Participation
Continuation Fest 2008 is a half-day meeting consisting of
techinical sessions and night session (dinner).
We sincerely solicit interested programmers, students, and researchers to participate in this
stimulating event!
Note. No registration or participartion fee is needed to attend
Continuation Fest except the dinner.
Those who join the dinner are encouraged to send an e-mail
to the organizer by April 11th.
The Continuation Fest will be held in
Akihabara site of University of Tokyo,
which is on the 13th Floor of
Akihabara "Daibiru" building, a modern building which is very close
to JR Akihabara station. (Note. "Daibiru" is the name of a building
and "JR" is Japan Railway.)
Direction from JR Akihabara Station:
Go to the exit for "Denki-Gai" (electric town),
or find the north-west direction.
Look for a tall building with 31 floors
which is reachable from the station by one minute.
Other stations nearby:
You can also use Tokyo-Metro Hibiya line "Akihabara" station,
Tokyo-Metro Ginza line "Suehirocho" station,
or Tsukuba Express line "Akihabara" station.
All stations are within walking distance (takes less than 5 minutes).
Acknowledgments.
We thank
SASADA Koichi of

We note that
FLOPS 2008 (International Symposium on Functional
and Logic Programming)
will start April 14th afternoon, and the attendees of
Continuation Fest have just enough time to get from Tokyo to Ise City
in the morning of Apr 14.
