This volume contains many excellent articles presenting the most recent progress in high energy physics and the current interesting problems concerning flavor physics. The reader will see how flavor physics has become a central area of particle physics, with the Standard Model (SM) being subjected to increasingly precise experiments, and why the remaining puzzles in the SM, such as the mechanisms of symmetry breaking and CP violation, as well as fermion mass and mixing generation, all are mysteries hidden in the physics of flavor. The book also shows that flavor physics is likely to be a window for probing new physics beyond the SM for many years to come.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 16th International Symposium on Practical Aspects of Declarative Languages, PADL 2014, held in SanDiego, CA, USA, in January 2014, co-located with POPL 2014, the 41st Symposium on Principles of Programming Languages. The 15 revised papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 27 submissions. They cover a wide range of topics related to logic and functional programing, including language support for parallelism and GPUs, constructs and techniques for modularity and extensibility, and applications of declarative programming to document processing and DNA simulation.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th International Symposium on Practical Aspects of Declarative Languages, PADL 2011, held in Austin, TX, USA, in January 2011, co-located with POPL 2011, the Symposium on Principles of Programming Languages. The 17 revised full papers presented together with one application paper were carefully reviewed and selected from 40 submissions. The volume features a variety of contributions ranging from message-passing and mobile networks, concurrent and parallel programming, event processing and reactive programming, profiling and portability in Prolog, constraint programming, grammar combinators, belief set merging and work on new language extensions and tools.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Coordination Models and Languages, COORDINATION 2010, held in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, in June 2010, as one of the federated conferences on Distributed Computing Techniques, DisCoTec 2010. The 12 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 28 submissions. The papers cover a wide range of topics including the application of coordination in wireless systems; multicore scheduling; sensor networks; event processing; data flow networks; and railway interlocking.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 22nd International Symposium on Practical Aspects of Declarative Languages, PADL 2020, held in New Orleans, USA, in January 2020. The 10 full and 4 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 24 submissions. The papers present original work emphasizing novel applications and implementation techniques for all forms of declarative concepts, including programming with sets, functions, logic, and constraints. The papers are organized in the following topical headings: logical engines and applications; answer set programming systems; memory and real-time in functional programming; reasoning and efficient implementation; and small languages and implementation.
