        FINAL PROGRAM AND REGISTRATION INFORMATION


Static Analysis is increasingly recognized as a fundamental tool for
high performance implementations and verification systems of high-level
programming languages. The last two decades have witnessed substantial
developments in this area, ranging from the theoretical frameworks to
the design and implementation of analysers and their applications in
optimizing compilers.

The First International Static Analysis Symposium is held in Namur,
Belgium, from 28-30 September 1994. It follows the three previous
international workshops JTASPEFL and WSA'92, which were held in Bordeaux
(France), and WSA'93 which took place in Padova (Italy).

The aim of SAS'94 is to promote contacts and information exchange among
scientists who share common interests in static analysis for different
programming paradigms.
Researchers from the fields of concurrent, constraint, functional,
imperative, logic and object-oriented programming constitute the audience
of SAS.

Namur is a pleasant provincial town, 35 miles south of Brussels in Belgium,
located in a scenic environment. Brussels and Paris are easily reached by
train.

SAS'94 is hosted by:

Institut d'Informatique
Facultes Universitaires Notre-Dame de la Paix de Namur
Rue Grandgagnage, 21
B-5000 Namur

and is sponsored by  :

- Belgian National Fund for Scientific Research
- University of Namur (FUNDP) .
