                 ICLP'94 Post-Conference Workshop:

         The Sixth Workshop on Logic Programming Environments

                      Friday, June 17, 1994
                   Santa Margherita Ligure, Italy

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Logic programming environments have come a long way from the
original text-based paradigm.  Much work has been done on the creation
of better logic programming environments.  Furthermore, the characteristics
of logic programming languages often motivate innovative approaches
and techniques in the areas of user environments and programming tools.

  The Sixth Workshop on Logic Programming Environments will provide
a forum for researchers and logic programming system developers to 
exchange ideas and results on all aspects of environments for logic 
programming.  This includes work related to design issues, new 
techniques and tools, and the solution of noteworthy problems arising, 
for example, from new logic programming languages or interesting 
application areas.

OVERALL CONFERENCE ORGANIZATION:
--------------------------------

The workshop will be held in conjunction with ICLP'94.
ICLP'94 is the eleventh international conference on logic programming
and is one of the two major annual international conferences reporting
recent research results in logic programming. The technical program for
the conference will include tutorials, invited lectures, and
presentations of refereed papers and posters. For general information

LOCATION:

The workshop will be held at the Grand Hotel Miramare in Santa
Margherita Ligure, a lovely small town near Genova (about 30 Km),
renowned for the beautiful natural scenarios and the many tourist
facilities. Santa Margherita is also the only access to the worldwide
famous villages of Paraggi and Portofino, pearls of the Mediterranean
Sea and marine natural park. Not far from Santa Margherita is also the
pleasant resort area of ``Cinque Terre'', consisting of five
picturesque villages on the rocky coast which can be reached  by train
or boat only.

The Grand Hotel Miramare a classic-style building, conveniently
situated at one end of the Santa Margherita gulf, with private beach,
private garden, private swimming pool, and at a walking distance from
Paraggi (Km. 2) and Portofino (Km. 4).


TRAVEL INFORMATION:

The Grand Hotel Miramare is in walking distance (20 minutes - 1/2 hour)
from the Santa Margherita railway station. Santa Margherita is easily
reachable by train or bus ( 1/2 hour) from Genova, in turn easily
reachable by train, car and plane. The airoport of Genova is daily
