FHPNC 2020 Call for Papers
==========================

Satellite event of the 25th ACM SIGPLAN International Conference on
Functional Programming (ICFP 2020), held on the 23rd of August.

TL:DR: Paper/abstract deadline 15 May.

Scope
-----

The ACM SIGPLAN International Workshop on Functional High-Performance
and Numerical Computing aims to bring together researchers and
practitioners exploring or employing the use of functional or
declarative programming languages or techniques in scientific
computing, and specifically in the domains of high-performance
computing and numerical programming.

The purpose of the meeting is to enable sharing of results,
experiences, and novel ideas about how high-level, declarative
techniques can help make high-performance, distributed/parallel, or
numerically-intensive code dealing with computationally challenging
problems easier to write, read, maintain, or portable to new hardware
architectures. Areas of interest include, but are not limited to:

    * relevant compiler technologies

    * runtime systems (including fault tolerance mechanisms and those
      supporting distributed or parallel computation)

    * domain-specific languages (embedded or standalone)

    * type systems

    * formal methods

    * software libraries (e.g. for exact or interval arithmetic).

Submission details
------------------

Submissions should fall into one of two categories:

    * Regular research papers (up to 12 pages)
    * Extended abstracts (1 - 2 pages)

The bibliography will not be counted against the page limits for either category.

Regular research papers are expected to present novel and interesting
research results, and will be included in the formal
proceedings. Extended abstracts should report work in progress that
the authors would like to present at the workshop; they will be
evaluated primarily for relevance and interest. Extended abstracts
will be distributed to workshop attendees but will not be published in
the formal proceedings.

We welcome submissions from PC members (with the exception of the PC
Chair(s)), but these submissions will be held to a higher standard.

Submission is handled through the HotCRP site. All submissions should
be in portable document format (PDF) and formatted using the ACM
SIGPLAN style guidelines. Submissions written with LaTeX are required
to use the acmart format and the two-column sigplan subformat (not to
be confused with the one-column acmlarge subformat!).

Extended abstracts must be submitted with the label ‘Extended
abstract’ clearly in the title.

Publication
-----------

The proceedings of FHPNC 2020 will be published in the ACM Digital Library.
