The International Lisp Conference is a forum for the discussion of Lisp and, in particular, the design, implementation and application of any of the Lisp dialects. We encourage everyone interested in Lisp to participate. We invite high quality submissions in all areas involving Lisp dialects and any other languages in the Lisp family, including, but not limited to, ACL2, AutoLisp, Clojure, Common Lisp, ECMAScript, Dylan, Emacs Lisp, ISLISP, Racket, Scheme, SKILL, HOP etc. This year's focus will be directed towards integrated solutions, including mobile computing. We especially invite submissions in the following areas: * Pervasive computing * Interoperability * Portability * Implementation challenges/tradeoffs for embedded/mobile platforms * Language support for mobile toolkits and frameworks * Language support for distribution * Language support for reliability, availability, and serviceability * Mobile IDEs * Mobile applications Contributions are also welcome in other areas, including but not limited to: * Language design and implementation * Language integration, inter-operation and deployment * Applications (especially commercial) * Reflection, meta-object protocols, meta-programming * Domain-specific languages * Programming paradigms and environments * Efficient parallel and concurrent computation * Language support for managing both manual and automatic GC * Theorem proving * Scientific computing * Data mining * Semantic web Technical Programme: Original submissions in all areas related to the conference themes are invited for the following categories: Papers: Technical papers of up to 10 pages that describe original results. Demonstrations: Abstracts of up to 2 pages for demonstrations of tools, libraries and applications. Workshops: Abstracts of up to 2 pages for groups of people who intend to work on a focused topic for half a day. Tutorials: Abstracts of up to 2 pages for in-depth presentations about topics of special interest for 1 to 2 hours. Panel discussions: Abstracts of up to 2 pages for discussions about current themes. Panel discussion proposals must mention panel member who are willing to partake in a discussion. The conference will also provide slots for lightning talks, to be registered on-site every day. For inquiries about any other kind of participation (commercial exhibits, advertising, prizes, book signing etc.), please see the contacts below. Important Dates: - May 18, 2014: Submission deadline - June 09, 2014: Notification of acceptance - June 29, 2014: Final Papers due - August 14, 2014: Conference All submissions should be formatted following the ACM SIGS guidelines and include ACM classification categories and terms.

Early registration fee until April 13. See http://www.european-lisp-symposium.org/content-registration-full.html * Submission deadline is approaching. Still one month to submit a paper! * Thanks to our new sponsors, Lispworks and Franz Inc.! http://www.lispworks.com/ http://franz.com/ The purpose of the European Lisp Symposium is to provide a forum for the discussion and dissemination of all aspects of design, implementation and application of any of the Lisp and Lisp-inspired dialects, including Common Lisp, Scheme, Emacs Lisp, AutoLisp, ISLISP, Dylan, Clojure, ACL2, ECMAScript, Racket, SKILL, Hop and so on. We encourage everyone interested in Lisp to participate. The 7th European Lisp Symposium invites high quality papers about novel research results, insights and lessons learned from practical applications, and educational perspectives. We also encourage submissions about known ideas as long as they are presented in a new setting and/or in a highly elegant way. Topics include but are not limited to: - Context-, aspect-, domain-oriented and generative programming - Macro-, reflective-, meta- and/or rule-based development approaches - Language design and implementation - Language integration, inter-operation and deployment - Development methodologies, support and environments - Educational approaches and perspectives - Experience reports and case studies Please note that IRCAM, the conference venue, is a French institute for research on music and acoustics. Submissions relating Lisp to music or other acoustical matters will hence be particularly welcome, although given no heightened favor during the review process. We invite submissions in the following forms: Papers: Technical papers of up to 8 pages that describe original results or explain known ideas in new and elegant ways. Demonstrations: Abstracts of up to 2 pages for demonstrations of tools, libraries, and applications. Tutorials: Abstracts of up to 4 pages for in-depth presentations about topics of special interest for at least 90 minutes and up to 180 minutes. The symposium will also provide slots for lightning talks, to be registered on-site every day. All submissions should be formatted following the ACM SIGS guidelines and include ACM classification categories and terms.
