This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 11th International
Symposium on Practical Aspects of Declarative Languages, PADL 2009, held

The 18 revised full papers presented together with 1 invited talk were

original work emphasizing novel applications and implementation
techniques for all forms of declarative concepts, including functions,
relations, logic, and constraints. The papers address all current
aspects of declarative programming; they are organized in topical

multi-threading and parallelism, databases and large data sets, tabling
and optimization, as well as language extensions and implementation.
