  SCOPE OF THE SUMMER SCHOOL
 
  The Central-European Functional Programming School is an
  intensive summer school in the field of functional programming.
  The invited lecturers are the most prominent researchers in the
  field in Europe, and they will present state-of-the-art functional
  programming techniques:
 
  * Andrew Butterfield (University of Dublin, Ireland): Reasoning about
  I/O in functional programs
  * Clemens Grelck (University of Amsterdam, The Netherlands): Multicore
  SAC
  * Johan Jeuring (Utrecht University, The Netherlands): Strategies for
  learning functional programming
  * Rita Loogen (Philipps University Marburg, Germany): Eden
  * Simon Marlow (Microsoft Research, United Kingdom): Parallel and Concurrent Haskell
  * Greg Michaelson (Heriot-Watt University Edinburgh, Scotland): Box
  Calculus
  * Rinus Plasmeijer (Radboud University Nijmegen, The Netherlands):
  Defining distributed GUI applications with iTasks
  * Kostis Sagonas (University of Athens, Greece): Multicore Erlang
  * Mary Sheeran (Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden): Feldspar:
  Implementation and Application
 
  AIMS OF THE SUMMER SCHOOL
 
  The main goal of the summer school is to bring together computer
  scientists, researchers, graduate and PhD students.
 
  The programme of the summer school includes:
 
  * In depth lectures about a selected number of recently emerged
  advanced functional programming techniques, taught by experts in
  the field.
 
  * Practical exercises accompanying the lectures to be solved by the
  students at the school. These exercises guide the students'
  learning to a great extent. A high quality lab is available at the
  school site.
 
  * Team work is stimulated, such that the students can also learn
  from each other.
 
  * Forum for PhD students.
 
  The CEFP school provides a forum for PhD students to present their
  research results as part of the workshop programme. Abstract 
  submission is before the summer school, full paper version 
  after the summer school. Selected and reviewed papers will be 
  published in the LNCS Volume of the revised lectures.

  LOCATION
 
  The event is organized and hosted by the Department of Programming
  Languages and Compilers, Faculty of Informatics, Eötvös Loránd
  University, Budapest, Hungary.
  Budapest is the capital of Hungary with nearly 2.000.000
  inhabitants. It is divided into two parts by the river Danube. There
  are nine bridges over the river which connect the two sides. The
  most beautiful ones are Chain Bridge (Lánchíd), Elisabeth Bridge
  (Erzsébet híd) and Liberty Bridge (Szabadság híd).
  One of the best places to walk around is the Castle District. There
  is a breath-taking view of the city from the Fisherman's
  Bastion. Across from the Fisherman's Bastion is Matthias Church
  named after the Hungarian King Matthias. In the Castle District you
  can find the Sándor Palace, the residence and workplace of the
  Head of the State.
  Budapest is richly endowed with natural springs of thermal waters
  possessing various medicinal properties (Gellért Baths and Hotel,
  Széchenyi Baths, Lukács Medicinal Baths etc.).
  The largest building in the country is the building of the Hungarian
  Parliament, which is situated on the bank of the Danube. The
  Neo-Gothic building complex was built between 1884 and 1904
  according to the plans of Imre Steindl.
  There are many other sights in Budapest, just like Heroes' Square,
  St. Stephen's Basilica, Andrássy Avenue, Margaret-island, Gellért
  Hill and the Citadell etc.
