Second Call for Copy: Monad.Reader Issue 15

It's not too late to write something for Issue 15 of the Monad.Reader!

Whether you're an established academic or have only just started
learning Haskell, if you have something to say, please consider
writing an article for The Monad.Reader! The submission deadline
for Issue 15 is

                **Friday, January 8, 2010**

The Monad.Reader
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Monad.Reader is a electronic magazine about all things Haskell.
It is less formal than journal, but somehow more enduring than a
wiki-page. There have been a wide variety of articles: exciting
code fragments, intriguing puzzles, book reviews, tutorials, and
even half-baked research ideas.

Submission Details
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Get in touch with me if you intend to submit something -- the sooner
you let me know what you're up to, the better.  I am also happy to
provide feedback on draft versions before the submission deadline.

Please submit articles for the next issue to me by e-mail (byorgey
at cis.upenn.edu).

Articles should be written according to the guidelines available
from

AIMS AND SCOPE

Computational Science applications are more and more complex to  develop and require more and more
computing power. Bill McColl's post "Sequential Computing Considered Harmful" is an excellent summary 
of today's situation. Sequential computing cannot go further. Major companies in the computing industry
now recognizes the urgency of reorienting an entire industry towards massively parallel 
computing (Think Parallel or Perish).

Parallel and grid computing are solutions to the increasing need for computing power. The trend is towards
the increase of cores in processors, the number of processors and the need for scalable

can we make download counts for individual packages available?

my own program (http://freearc.org) has about 10k downloads/month so i
doubt what place it may have among all haskell applications :)

Lots of Haskell at PEPM 2010 - Call for Participation

Hi all,

If you are planning to go to Madrid in January, for POPL, don't forget
registering for PEPM as well! If you haven't yet been planning to go,
maybe you want to reconsider, for PEPM if not for POPL.

Why, you ask?

Well, the PEPM program has *lots* of Haskell this year. Indeed, no fewer
than 10 of the 21 presentations are directly related to Haskell. And the
other papers are great, too, and many of them will be interesting to
Haskell folk as well.

Scan the speakers and titles below, and you will know why I think you
won't want to miss out on that one.

Best regards,
Janis.
