Higher-order languages (both functional and object-oriented) provide a variety of abstraction mechanisms to help "tame" or "encapsulate" effects (e.g. monads, ADTs, ownership types, typestate, first-class events, transactions, Hoare Type Theory, session types, substructural and region-based type systems), and a number of different semantic models and verification technologies have been developed in order to codify and exploit the benefits of this encapsulation (e.g. bisimulations, step-indexed Kripke logical relations, higher-order separation logic, game semantics, various modal logics).

HOPE is a *new workshop* that is intended to bring together
= researc= hers interested in the design, semantics, implementation, and
verificati= on of higher-order effectful programs. It will be
*informal*, consisting= of invited talks, contributed talks on work in
progress, and open-ended= discussion sessions. This 1st edition of HOPE
is dedicated to John Reyn= olds, whose work is an inspiration to us all.


------------------= ---Goals of the Workshop
---------------------

A recurrin= g theme in many papers at ICFP, and in the research of many
ICFP attende= es, is the interaction of higher-order programming with
various kinds = of effects: storage effects, I/O, control effects,
concurrency, etc. Whi= le effects are of critical importance in many
applications, they also ma= ke it hard to build, maintain, and reason
about one's code. Higher-order= languages (both functional and
object-oriented) provide a variety of ab= straction mechanisms to help
"tame" or "encapsulate" effects (e.g. mon= ads, ADTs, ownership types,
typestate, first-class events, transactions,= Hoare Type Theory,
session types, substructural and region-based type s= ystems), and a
number of different semantic models and verification tech= nologies have
been developed in order to codify and exploit the benefits= of this
encapsulation (e.g. bisimulations, step-indexed Kripke logical<= /span><= br>

highly= active.

The goal of the HOPE workshop is to bring researchers from = a variety
of different backgrounds and perspectives together to exchange= new and
exciting ideas concerning the design, semantics, implementation= , and
verification of higher-order effectful programs.

We want HO= PE to be as informal and interactive as possible. The
program will thus = involve a combination of invited talks, contributed
talks about work i= n progress, and open-ended discussion
sessions. There will be no publish= ed proceedings, but participants
will be invited to submit working docum= ents, talk slides, etc. to be
