Scope
~~~~~
The European Lisp Symposium is a premier forum for the discussion and
dissemination of all aspects of design, implementation, and application
of any of the Lisp dialects, including Common Lisp, Scheme, Emacs
Lisp, Clojure, Racket, ACL2, AutoLisp, ISLISP, Dylan, SKILL, Hy, Shen,
Carp, Janet, uLisp, Picolisp, Gamelisp, TXR, and so on. We encourage
everyone interested in Lisp to participate.

The European Lisp Symposium invites high quality papers about novel
research results, insights and lessons learned from practical
applications, and educational perspectives. We also encourage
submissions about known ideas as long as they are presented in a new
setting and/or in a highly elegant way.

Topics include but are not limited to:

- context-, aspect-, domain-oriented and generative programming
- macro-, reflective-, meta- and/or rule-based development approaches
- language design and implementation
- language integration, inter-operation, and deployment
- development methodologies, support, and environments
- educational approaches and perspectives
- experience reports and case studies

This year, we suggest an emphasis on best practices, approaches,
and technologies for building highly recursive and self-adapting
architectures, in particular for AI, ML, tool integration and
instruction generation, using dynamic programming languages.

Technical Program
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We invite submissions in the following forms.

* Papers: technical papers of up to 8 pages that describe original
results or explain known ideas in new and elegant ways.

* Experience reports: papers of up to 6 pages describing a successful
use of a Lisp dialect and/or analyzing obstacles that have kept it
from working in practice.

* Tutorials: abstracts of up to 4 pages for in-depth presentations
about topics of special interest.

* Demonstrations: abstracts of up to 4 pages for demonstrations of
tools, libraries, and applications.

All submissions should be formatted following the ACM SIGS guidelines
and include ACM Computing Classification System 2012 concepts and
terms. Submissions should be uploaded to Easy Chair, at the following
link http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=els2024.

Note: to help us with the review process please indicate the type of
submission by entering either "paper", "demo", or "tutorial" in the
Keywords field.
