This book presents latest research developments in the area of functional programming. The contributions, in this volume, cover a wide range of topics from theory, formal aspects of functional programming, graphics and visual programming to distributed computing and compiler design. As is often the case in this community, the most prolific work comes out of the combination of theoretical work with its application on classical problems in computer science. Particular trends in this volume are: reasoning about functional programs; automated theorem proving for high-level programming languages; and, language support for concurrency and distribution. The "TFP" series is dedicated to promoting new research directions related to the field of functional programming and to investigate the relationships of functional programming with other branches of computer science. It is designed to be a platform for novel and upcoming research.
