TLCA 2003 Last call for papers



                    Sixth International Conference on

            Typed Lambda Calculi and Applications (TLCA '03)

                    Valencia, Spain, 10-12 June 2003

                   Second and Final Call for Papers
	          SUBMISSION DEADLINE 2 December 2002

TLCA is getting into shape: we now have three excellent confirmed INVITED
SPEAKERS: David McAllester, Georges Gonthier, and Ralph Loader, whose
presentations promise to make TLCA an exciting event next summer. You can
make it even more exciting by submitting a COOL PAPER on ...

... original research results that are broadly relevant to the theory and
applications of typed calculi. The following list of topics is
non-exhaustive:

    * Proof-theory: Natural deduction and sequent calculi, cut
      elimination and normalisation, linear logic and proof nets,
      type-theoretic aspects of computational complexity
    * Semantics: Denotational semantics, game semantics, realisability,
      categorical models
    * Implementation: Abstract machines, parallel execution, optimal
      reduction, type systems for program optimisation
    * Types: Subtypes, dependent types, type inference, polymorphism,
      types in theorem proving
    * Programming: Foundational aspects of functional and
      object-oriented programming, proof search and logic programming,
      connections between and combinations of functional and logic
      programming, type checking

The programme of TLCA'03 will consist of three invited talks and about
25 selected presentations in plenary sessions.
There will be three invited talks by David McAllester (joint with RTA),
Georges Gonthier, and Ralph Loader.

The Programme Committee consists of:

(Chair; University of Munich)
 P.-A. Mellies (CNRS, Paris)
 J. Palsberg (Purdue University)
 H.
Schwichtenberg (University of Munich)
 N. Shankar (SRI International,
Menlo Park)
 P. Urzyczyn (Warsaw University)

TLCA'03 will be held in Valencia, Spain, 10-12 June 2003, and will be
colocated with RTA and FTP to form the RDP joint conference.

The TLCA Steering Committee :

 S. Abramsky (Chair; Oxford
