                        CALL FOR PRESENTATIONS

                      Co-located with ICFP 2014
                         Sponsored by SIGPLAN
           Talk Proposal Submission Deadline: May 19, 2014

==============================================================================

The OCaml Users and Developers Workshop brings together industrial users 
of OCaml with academics and hackers who are working on extending the 
language, type system and tools. Previous editions have been colocated 
with ICFP 2012 in Copenhagen, and ICFP 2013 in Boston, following the 
OCaml Meetings in Paris in 2010 and 2011. OCaml 2014 will be held on 
September 5, 2014, in Gothenburg, colocated with ICFP 2014.

Scope
=====

Discussions will focus on the practical aspects of OCaml programming and
the nitty gritty of the tool-chain and upcoming improvements and 
changes. Thus, we aim to solicit talks on all aspects related to 
improving the use or development of the language and of its programming 
environment, including, for example:

- compiler developments, new backends, runtime and architectures

- practical type system improvements, such as (but not limited to)
GADTs, first-class modules, generic programming, or dependent types

- new library or application releases, and their design rationales

- tools and infrastructure services, and their enhancements

- prominent industrial uses of OCaml, or deployments in unusual
situations.

Submission
==========

It will be an informal meeting, with an online scribe report of the
meeting, but no formal proceedings. Slides of presentations will be
available online from the workshop homepage. The presentations will
likely be recorded, and made available at a later time.

To submit a talk, please register a description of the talk (about 2 
pages long) at https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ocaml2014, 
providing a clear statement of what will be brought by the talk: the 
problems that are addressed, the technical solutions or methods that are 
proposed. If you wish to perform a demo or require any special setup, we 
will do our best to accommodate you.

Schedule
========

Abstract Submission Deadline: Monday, May 19, 2014
Notification to Speakers: Monday, June 30, 2014
Workshop: Friday, September 5, 2014

ML family workshop and post-proceedings
=======================================

The ML family workshop, held on the previous day, deals with general 
issues of the ML-style programming and type systems, and is seen as more 
research oriented. Yet there is an overlap with the OCaml workshop, 
which we are keen to explore, for instance by having a common session. 
The authors who feel their submission fits both workshops are encouraged 
to mention it at submission time and/or contact the Program Chairs.

As another form of cooperation, we are considering combined 
post-conference proceedings of selected papers from the two workshops. 
The Program Committees shall invite interested authors of selected 
presentations to expand their abstract for inclusion in the proceedings. 
The submissions would be reviewed according to the standards of the 
publication.
