The 27th International Symposium on Principles
and Practice of Declarative Programming
September 10-11, 2025
University of Calabria, Rende, Italyhttps://ppdp25.github.io/site/
Collocated with ICLP 2025.https://iclp25.demacs.unical.it/
The PPDP 2025 symposium brings together researchers from the declarative
programming communities, including those working in the functional, logic,
answer-set, and constraint handling 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.
PPDP 25 will be held at University of Calabria, Rende, Italy, as part of ICLP
2025 (https://iclp25.demacs.unical.it/). At least one of the authors of an
accepted paper is expected to attend the conference and present the paper.
Submissions are invited on all topics related to declarative programming, from
principles to practice, from foundations to applications. Topics of interest
include, but are not limited to:
Language Design: domain-specific languages; interoperability; concurrency,
parallelism and distribution; modules; functional languages; reactive
languages; languages with objects; languages for quantum computing; languages
inspired by biological and chemical computation; metaprogramming.
Declarative languages in artificial intelligence: logic programming; database
languages; knowledge representation languages; probabilistic languages;
differentiable languages.
Implementations: abstract machines; interpreters; compilation; compile-time
and run-time optimization; memory management.
Foundations: types; logical frameworks; monads and effects; semantics.
Analysis and Transformation: partial evaluation; abstract interpretation;
control flow; data flow; information flow; termination analysis; resource
analysis; type inference and type checking; verification; validation;
debugging; testing.
Tools and Applications: programming and proof environments; verification
tools; case studies in proof assistants or interactive theorem provers;
certification; novel applications of declarative programming inside and
outside of CS; declarative programming pearls; practical experience reports
and industrial application; education.
Submissions can be made in three categories:
Submissions of Research Papers must present original research which is
unpublished and not submitted elsewhere. They must not exceed 12 pages ACM
style 2-column (including figures, but excluding bibliography). Work that
already appeared in unpublished or informally published workshop proceedings
may be submitted. Research papers will be judged on originality, significance,
correctness, clarity, and readability.
Submission of System Descriptions must describe a working system whose
description has not been published or submitted elsewhere. They must not exceed
10 pages and should contain a link to a working system. System Descriptions
must be marked as such at the time of submission and will be judged on
originality, significance, usefulness, clarity, and readability.
Submissions of Experience Reports are meant to help create a body of published,
refereed, citable evidence where declarative programming such as functional,
logic, answer-set, constraint programming, etc., is used in practice. They must
not exceed 5 pages including references. Experience Reports must be marked
as such at the time of submission and need not report original research
results. They will be judged on significance, usefulness, clarity, and
readability.
Possible topics for an Experience Report include, but are not limited to:
insights gained from real-world projects using declarative programming
comparison of declarative programming with conventional programming in the
context of an industrial project or a university curriculum
curricular issues encountered when using declarative programming in education
real-world constraints that created special challenges for an implementation
of a declarative language or for declarative programming in general
novel use of declarative programming in the classroom
programming pearl that illustrates a nifty new data structure or programming
technique.
Supplementary material may be provided via a link to an extended version of the
submission (recommended), or in a clearly marked appendix beyond the above
mentioned page limits. Reviewers are not required to study extended versions or
any material beyond the respective page limit. Material beyond the page limit
will not be included in the final published version.
Submissions will be made via EasyChair. The submission webpage for
PPDP 25 ishttps://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=iclp25 (select PPDP
track).
For each paper category, you must use the most recent version of the "Current
ACM Master Template" which is available at
(https://www.acm.org/publications/proceedings-template). You must use the LaTeX
sigconf proceedings template as the conference organizers are unable to process
final submissions in other formats.
Authors should note ACM's statement on author's rights
(http://authors.acm.org/) which apply to final papers. Submitted papers should
meet the requirements of ACM's plagiarism policy
(http://www.acm.org/publications/policies/plagiarism_policy).
ACM has introduced a new open access publishing model for the International
Conference Proceedings Series (ICPS). Authors based at institutions that are
not yet part of the ACM Open program and do not qualify for a waiver will be
required to pay an article processing charge (APC) to publish their ICPS
article in the ACM Digital Library. To determine whether or not an APC will be
applicable to your article, please follow the detailed guidance
here:https://www.acm.org/publications/icps/author-guidance.
Further information may be found on the ACM website, as follows:
