FIRST Research School

This mini course/seminar will cover the topics Functional Reactive Programming (FRP) and Functional Hybrid Modelling, roughly include

   * Introducing and explaining FRP by first focusing on Yampa, an arrows-based FRP variant embedded in Haskell
         o Theory, incl. semantics and any necessary background
         o Practical applications
         o Hopefully hand-on exercises
         o Implementation
   * Putting FRP into a wider context, e.g. other FRP variants and synchronous dataflow languages
   * Considering FRP-inspired research directions, e.g.
         o Functional Hybrid Modelling
         o FRP for integrative neuroscience

This PhD mini course/seminar will be led by Henrik Nilsson of the University of Nottingham, and will take place at the IT University in week 25 (21st-25th June 2010).
