Overview

The 19th International Symposium on Principles and Practice of Declarative Programming will take place 9 - 12 October 2017 in Namur, Belgim

PPDP 2017 is a forum that brings together researchers from the declarative programming communities, including those working in the functional, logic, answer-set, and constraint programming paradigms. The goal is to stimulate research in the use of logical formalisms and methods for analyzing, performing, specifying, and reasoning about computations, including mechanisms for concurrency, security, static analysis, and verification.
