THE 16TH WORKSHOP ON 
LOGIC-BASED METHODS IN PROGRAMMING ENVIRONMENTS 

August 16, 2006

WLPE' 06 - CALL FOR PAPERS

Satellite workshop of ICLP'06
August 17-20, 2006 
Seattle (Washington), USA


The 16th Workshop on Logic-based methods in Programming Environments will take place in Seattle (Washington), USA, as a satellite workshop of ICLP'06, the 22th International Conference on Logic Programming. This workshop will continue the series of successful international workshops on logic programming environments held in Ohio, USA (1989), Eilat, Israel (1990), Paris, France (1991), Washington, USA (1992), Vancouver, Canada (1993), Santa Margherita Ligure, Italy (1994), Portland, USA (1995), Leuven, Belgium and Port Jefferson, USA (1997), Las Cruces, USA (1999), Paphos, Cyprus (2001), Copenhagen, Denmark (2002), Mumbai, India (2003), Saint Malo, France (2004) and Sitges, Spain (2005).

The workshop aims at providing an informal meeting for the researchers working on logic-based tools for development and analysis of programs. This year we want to emphasize two aspects: on one hand we want to discuss the presentation, pragmatics and experiences of such tools; on the other one, we want to shift the traditional focus on environment tools for logic programming to logic-based environmental tools for programming in general. Specific topic areas relevant to the workshop include, but are not limited to: tools for debugging and testing, tools for static and dynamic analysis, systems for program verification and validation, code generation from specifications, termination and non-termination analysers, reasoners on occurs-check freeness and determinacy, profilers and performance analysers, systems for types and modes analyses, module systems, optimization tools.
