BACKGROUND
==========
The symposium is a forum for research on all issues concerning
functional programming and logic programming.  In particular, it wants
to stimulate the cross-fertilization as well as integration of the two
paradigms.  The symposium takes place about every 1.5 years in Japan.
Previous FLOPS meetings were held in Fuji Susuno (1995), Shonan Village
(1996), Kyoto(1998), and Tsukuba (1999).


Topics
======
The Fifth International Symposium on Functional and Logic Programming
solicits original papers in all areas of functional and logic
programming, including (but not limited to):

  * Language issues: language design and constructs,
    programming methodology, integration of paradigms,
    interfacing with other languages, type systems, constraints,
    concurrency and distributed computing

  * Foundations: semantics, rewrite systems and narrowing,
    type theory, proof systems

  * Implementation: compilation techniques, memory management,
    program analysis and transformation, partial evaluation,
    parallelism

  * Applications: case studies, real-world applications,
    graphical user interfaces, internet applications,
    database connection, formal methods and model checking
