Call for Contributions

ECOOP 2003
17th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming

July 21-25, 2003
Darmstadt University of Technology, Germany
http://www.ecoop.tu-darmstadt.de


ECOOP is the premier forum in Europe for bringing together practitioners,
researchers, and students to share their ideas and experiences in a broad
range of disciplines woven with the common thread of object technology. It
is a well integrated collage of events, including outstanding invited
speakers, carefully refereed technical papers, real world experiences in the
form of practitioner reports, exciting panels, topic focused workshops,
late-breaking demonstrations, and an interactive posters session. 

We invite high quality technical papers, workshop and tutorial proposals,
demos, posters, and practitioners reports related to object technology. The
conference will in particular welcome novel contributions based on new ideas
and/or new areas for OO technology. 


TECHNICAL PAPERS: SUBMISSION AND EVALUATION. 
We invite high quality papers reporting research results and/or experience
related to object technology. Paper submissions will be made electronically
via the Web, at the conference web site. For information about formatting
your paper please consult the Springer LNCS webpage:
http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html

Please notice that ECOOP, along with other scientific conferences, accepts
only original papers that have not been published (and are not under review
for publication) elsewhere. Any double submissions will be rejected without
review, and the other forum will be informed of the situation.
The program committee will evaluate each contributed research and experience
paper based on its relevance, novelty, significance, clarity, originality,
and correctness. Research papers should describe work that advances the
current state of the art. Experience papers should be of broad interest and
should describe insights gained from practical application of object
technology - of use to other researchers and practitioners. Papers must be
written in English, and not longer than 10,000 words. Papers arriving late
or clearly longer than the limit may be rejected immediately by the program
chair. In any case, the referees will be allowed to ignore, for the purpose
of their evaluation, any material exceeding the 10,000 words limit. 


TUTORIALS, WORKSHOPS, POSTERS, DEMOS, DOCTORAL SYMPOSIUM, and PRACTITIONERS
REPORTS. 
For details on submissions in one of these tracks, please consult the
respective sites at http://www.ecoop.tu-darmstadt.de and contact the
respective Chair.
