            PLAN-X 2006: ACM SIGPLAN Workshop on
        Programming Language Technologies for XML

                 http://planx2006.ens.fr/

      Charleston, South Carolina, January 14th, 2006
               Associated with POPL 2006


SCOPE:
   Programming language research has already had considerable impact
   in the world of XML and will play an increasingly important role
   in the design and implementation of future XML processing
   systems. The PLAN-X workshop provides a forum where like-minded
   researchers from a range of communities -- programming languages,
   databases, document processing, etc. -- can gather and exchange
   ideas.

   The scope of the workshop includes both theoretical and practical
   research. We seek both mature work that addresses significant
   challenges posed by issues specific to XML and work still in
   early stages that raises novel challenges. Example topics include
   -- but are not limited to -- the following:

      o   language designs for more flexible XML manipulation (pattern
          matching, path expressions, query languages, etc.);
      o   verification techniques for XML data and processing programs
          (type systems, flow analysis, integrity constraints, etc.);
      o   formal models for XML processing based on logic, automata,
          lambda calculi, etc.;
      o   compilation and optimization techniques for XML languages;
      o   linguistic ideas for processing large-scale XML data (external
          storage, streaming, etc.);
      o   integration of XML languages and non-XML languages; and
      o   real-life applications and experiments with applying language
          technologies to XML-intensive problems.
