<div><br></div><div><br></div><div>SCOPE </div><div><br></div><div>DAMP 2011 is the sixth in a series of one-day workshops seeking to</div><div>explore ideas in declarative programming language design that will</div>
<div>greatly simplify programming for multicore architectures, and more</div><div>generally for tightly coupled parallel architectures. The emphasis</div><div>will be on (constraint-)logic and functional programming, but any</div>
<div>declarative programming language ideas that aim to raise the level of</div><div>abstraction are welcome. DAMP seeks to gather together researchers in</div><div>declarative approaches to parallel programming and to foster cross</div>
<div>fertilization across different approaches.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>WORKSHOP PROGRAM </div><div><br></div><div>Welcome: 9:20-9:30</div><div><br></div><div>Session 1: Invited Talk (9:30 - 10:30)</div><div>
