The following is a copy of the original call for participation for 
the ILPS workshop on Global Compilation. Due to some technical problems 
with sending and posting reminders, the deadline has been extended to 
August 16th.

Spiro Michaylov and Will Winsborough.

                   Call for Participation

               Workshop on Global Compilation
                  in conjunction with the
          International Logic Programming Symposium 
          October 26-30, 1993, Vancouver, BC, Canada


Concern about the performance of logic programming systems has lead
many researchers to study global program analysis techniques such as
abstract interpretation.  Some encouraging work has demonstrated the
usefulness of applying global analysis to compilation.  Owing in part
to the technical nature of many of the analysis techniques, there has
been a tendency for researchers to focus either on analysis techniques
or on code generation and execution strategies.  The objective of this
workshop is to provide an opportunity for greater interaction between
researchers with these different focuses.  An additional objective is
to allow cross-fertilization from work on other programming paradigms,
such as functional programming.

Topics may include but are not limited to analysis techniques and
frameworks, efficiency of analysis, multiple specialization, avoiding
code explosion, variable and structure sharing, single-threaded
analysis, free variable analysis, and interaction with language
features and execution strategies.

Abstracts should be send to the
address below:

             Will Winsborough
             Department of Computer Science
             Pennsylvania State University
             333 Whitmore Laboratory
             University Park, PA 16802, USA

             +1 (814) 863 3600 voice
             +1 (814) 865 3176 fax
             winsboro@cs.psu.edu

             [ Will Winsborough will be unavailable by telephone 
               during July. Send e-mail or contact Spiro Michaylov
               on +1 (614) 292 6377 ]

Abstracts should be no more than 8-10 pages in length, and there is no
restriction on the format to be used. However, Latex/Tex/dvi/ps format is
preferred, particularly styles similar to those used for submissions and/or
camera-ready copy for the main conference. Submission by email rather than
printed copies is strongly encouraged. 

Copies of all accepted abstracts will be distributed to participants at the
workshop. In order to provide continued access to the abstracts presented
at the workshop, the proceedings will be available as a Pennsylvania State
University technical report.

Submission Deadline:       August 1, 1993 
Notification Sent:         August 31, 1993
Final Manuscript Due:      September 30, 1993

Organizing Committee: Spiro Michaylov, William Winsborough
