<p class=MsoNormal> 10th SYMPOSIUM ON TRENDS IN FUNCTIONAL PROGRAMMING<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> TFP 2009<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> SELYE JANOS UNIVERSITY, KOMARNO, SLOVAKIA<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> June 2-4, 2009<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>The symposium on Trends in Functional Programming (TFP) is
an<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>international forum for researchers with interests in all
aspects of<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>functional programming languages, focusing on providing a
broad view of<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>current and future trends in Functional Programming. It
aspires to be a<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>lively environment for presenting the latest research
results. Acceptance<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>for the conference is based on full papers or extended
abstracts, and a<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>formal post-symposium refereeing process selects the best
articles<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>presented at the symposium for publication in a high-profile
volume.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>TFP 2009 is hosted by the Selye Janos University, Komarno,
Slovakia, and<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>it is co-located with the 3rd Central-European Functional
Programming<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>School (CEFP 2009), which is held immediately before TFP
2009 (May 25-30).<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>to any other forum. They may consider any aspect of
functional<o:p></o:p></p>

experience-<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>oriented. Applications of functional programming techniques
to other<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>languages are also within the scope of the symposium.

<p class=MsoNormal>symposium for publication in the draft proceedings. Further
