ECOOP'2009
23rd European Conference on Object Oriented Programming
July 6th - 10th 2009, Genova, Italy
http://2009.ecoop.org

CALL FOR PAPERS

The ECOOP 2009 conference invites high quality papers presenting research
results or experience in all areas relevant to object technology, including
work that takes inspiration from, or builds connections to, areas not
commonly considered object-oriented. ECOOP wishes to embrace a broad
range of topics, therefore the following list of topics is by no means
exclusive:

• Analysis, design methods and design patterns
• Concurrent, real-time or parallel systems
• Databases, persistence and transactions
• Distributed and mobile systems
• Frameworks, product lines and software architectures
• Language design and implementation
• Testing and metrics
• Programming environments and tools
• Theoretical foundations, type systems, formal methods
• Versioning, compatibility, software evolution
• Aspects, Components, Modularity, Reflection
• Collaboration, Workflow

Research papers should advance the current state of the art, and both
experimentally based work and mathematical results are welcome. Experience
papers should describe novel insight gained from the practical application
of object technology, in such a way that it is of interest to a broad group
of researchers and practitioners.

A paper should explain its contributions in both general and technical terms,
identifying what has been accomplished, explaining why it is significant, and
comparing it with previous work. Authors should strive to make their papers
understandable to a broad audience. Papers will be evaluated according to
originality and significance, precision and correctness, presentation and
clarity, and relevance.

Papers must be written in English, and be no longer than 25 pages, including
references, appendices and figures, and written using the LNCS style. For
more information about formatting please consult the Springer LNCS web site
at http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html.

or correct factual mistakes.
