Functional programming

FHPC’18 seeks to bring together researchers and practitioners exploring uses of functional (or more generally, declarative or high-level) programming systems or concepts in application domains where high performance is essential. All aspects of performance-critical programming and parallel programming are in scope, including both traditional large-scale distributed-memory scientific computing (HPC) and work targeting single node systems with SMPs, GPUs, etc. We invite a range of submissions: original research, experience reports, case studies, and evaluations of programming systems are all welcome. Work on incorporating functional programming concepts into more traditional (imperative) HPC applications is explicitly solicited.
