This book discusses issues concerning functional programming, logic programming, and integration of the two. The topics include language design, formal semantics, type theory, compilation techniques, program transformation, programming methods, integration of programming paradigms, constraint solving, and distributed computation.

This volume contains the papers presented at the 4th Fuji International S- posium on Functional and Logic Programming (FLOPS’99) held in Tsukuba, Japan, November 11–13, 1999, and hosted by the Electrotechnical Laboratory (ETL). FLOPS is a forum for presenting and discussing all issues concerning functional programming, logic programming, and their integration. The sym- sium takes place about every 1.5 years in Japan. Previous FLOPS meetings were held in Fuji Susuno (1995), Shonan Village (1996), and Kyoto (1998). 1 There were 51 submissions from Austria ( ),Belgium (2),Brazil(3),China 3 3 1 7 (1), Denmark (2), France (3 ), Germany (8), Ireland (1), Israel ( ), Italy (1 ), 4 3 12 1 Japan (9 ), Korea (1), Morocco (1), The Netherlands (1), New Zealand (1), 3 1 1 3 5 Portugal ( ), Singapore ( ), Slovakia (1), Spain (4 ), Sweden (1), UK (4 ), 2 3 4 6 1 and USA (2 ), of which the program committee selected 21 for presentation. In 4 addition, this volume contains full papers by the two invited speakers, Atsushi Ohori and Mario Rodr ́?guez-Artalejo.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th International Symposium on Functional and Logic Programming, FLOPS 2006, held in Fuji-Susono, Japan, in April 2006. The 17 revised full papers presented together with 2 invited contributions were carefully reviewed and selected from 51 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on data types, FP extensions, type theory, LP extensions, analysis, contracts, as well as Web and GUI.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th International Symposium on Functional and Logic Programming, FLOPS 2001, held in Tokyo, Japan in March 2001. The 21 revised full papers presented together with three invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 40 submissions. The book offers topical sections on functional programming, logic programming, functional logic programming, types, program analysis and transformation, and Lambda calculus.

This volume is a compilation of the papers presented at the Fuji International Workshop on Functional and Logic Programming in Fuji, Susono, Japan. Topics include Language Design, Formal Semantics, Compilation Techniques, Program Transformation, Programming Methods, etc.

This volume contains the proceedings of the 7th International Symposium on Functional and Logic Programming (FLOPS 2004), held in Nara, Japan, April 7-9, 2004 at the New Public Hall, Nara. FLOPS is a forum for research on all issues concerning functional programming and logic programming. In particular it aims to stimulate the cross-fertilization as well as the integration of the two paradigms. The previous FLOPS meetings took place in Fuji-Susono (1995), Shonan (1996), Kyoto (1998), Tsukuba (1999), Tokyo(2001)and Aizu (2002). The proceedings of FLOPS 1999,FLOPS 2001 and FLOPS 2002 were published by Springer-Verlag in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series, as volumes 1722, 2024 and 2441, respectively. In response to the call for papers, 55 papers were submitted by authors from 1 Australia (1), Austria (1), Canada (1), China (4), Denmark (2), Estonia (), 2 1 1 France (3), Germany (4), Italy (1), Japan (15), the Netherlands (1), Oman 2 4 1 1 (1), Portugal (), Singapore (2), Spain (8), UK (3), and USA (6). Each paper 2 4 was reviewed by at least three program committee members with the help of expert external reviewers. The program committee meeting was conducted electronically for a period of 2 weeks in December 2003. After careful and thorough discussion, the program committee selected 18 papers (33%) for presentation at the conference. In addition to the 18 contributed papers, the symposium included talks by three invited speakers: Masami Hagiya (University of Tokyo), Carsten Schur · mann (Yale University), and Peter Selinger (University of Ottawa).
