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

Technical Program
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We invite submissions in the following forms. Papers and experience
reports must not overlap significantly with the authors’ previously
published work in a peer reviewed publication, and must not be under
review on another journal or conference. Also, authors must agree with
our publication ethics and malpractice statement (cf.
https://european-lisp-symposium.org/pepms.html).

* 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.

For information on the submission format, please refer to the
"Submission" section at https://www.european-lisp-symposium.org/2025.
