Continuations are ubiquitous in many areas of Computer Science, ranging from classical logic to compiler construction. Recent applications include, for instance, continuation-passing style in typed assembly languages, structuring servlets and GUIs with continuations, and natural language semantics.
The 4th ACM SIGPLAN Workshop on Continuations (CW'04) aims to provide a forum for research on continuations and their applications. Previous Continuation workshops were held in conjunction with POPL'97 in Paris and with POPL'01 in London.
There will be a special issue of the journal Higher-Order and Symbolic Computation on Continuations.
Program and on-line proceedings for CW'04Olivier Danvy has taken some pictures during the talks.
The proceedings of CW'04 have appeared as University of Birmingham Technical Report CSR-04-1. The papers are also available electronically from the Program page.
