> Overview
> *********
> Object-oriented languages and similar languages are pervasive and play a significant role
> in computer science and engineering life and sometime appear as ubiquitous and completely
> mature. However, despite a large number of works, there is still a clear need for
> solutions for efficient implementation and compilation of these languages in various
> application domains ranging from embedded and real-time systems to desktop systems.
> 
> The ICOOOLPS workshop series thus aims to address this crucial issue of optimization in OO
> and OO-like languages, programs and systems. It intends to do so by bringing together
> researchers and practitioners working in the field of OO and OO-like languages
> implementation and optimization. Its main goals are identifying fundamental bases and key
> current issues pertaining to the efficient implementation,compilation and optimization of
> such languages, and outlining future challenges and research directions.
> 
> Topics
> ******
> Topics of interest for ICOOOLPS include but are not limited to:
> 
> * implementation of fundamental OOL features: 
>  - inheritance (object layout, late binding, subtype test...) 
>  - genericity (parametric types) 
>  - memory models 
> * runtime systems:
>  - compilers
>  - linkers 
>  - virtual machines 
>  - garbage collectors 
> * optimizations: 
>  - static and dynamic analyses
>  - adaptive virtual machines
> * resource constraints: 
>  - real-time systems 
>  - embedded systems (space, low power)... 
> * relevant choices and tradeoffs: 
>  - constant time vs. non-constant time mechanisms
>  - separate compilation vs. global compilation 
>  - dynamic loading vs. global linking 
>  - dynamic checking vs. proof-carrying code 
>  - annotations vs. no annotations
> 
> Submission
> **********
> Authors are encouraged to submit papers describing ongoing work, papers describing
> research results, or position papers describing an open issue, likely solutions, drawbacks
> of current solutions or alternative solutions to well known problems. 
> Sensational, daring, provocative ideas are welcome in such a workshop, as a good way 
> to trigger fruitful discussions. 
> Accepted papers will be published to the ACM Digital Library and the workshop
> web site, unless the authors choose not to.
> At least one author of the paper will be expected to attend the workshop.
> 
> Papers must be written in English, formatted according to ACM SIG Proceedings style, and
> their final version should range from 2 pages to 12 pages.
> 
> Papers must be submitted electronically in PDF format via EasyChair at 
> https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=icooolps2013
