Call For Participation:
ACM SIGPLAN Conference On Object-Oriented Programming
Systems, Languages and Applications

A Note from the Conference Chair

We invite you to contribute to OOPSLA '97, ACM's premier forum
bringing together professionals in the field of object technology. As
you will see in this Call for Participation, there are many ways to
contribute. It's your papers, your ideas, your active debate, and
your experiences that will make this a great conference. As in past
years, OOPSLA '97 will be a week-long event -- a collage of technical
paper sessions, experience reports, keynote presentations, workshops,
interactive panels, exhibits, posters, demonstrations, educational
symposia, birds-of-a-feather sessions, and, of course, an exceptional
tutorial program and lots of food and opportunities to mingle.

OOPSLA is THE venue for exchanging ideas and experiences in this
field, and has proven its value to the broad range of professionals
interested in object technology, including seasoned veterans and
newcomers, industrial researchers and academics, technical developers
and users, students and gurus, individual contributors and managers.
OOPSLA provides a unique opportunity for you to share your research
and experience with others in the wide variety of areas that
encompass object technology, including software architecture and
design patterns, analysis and design methods, testing and metrics,
language design and implementation, reusability, components and
frameworks, databases and persistence, distributed computing and
communications systems, software engineering practices, and
theoretical foundations. A special aspect of OOPSLA is this coming
together of a broad range of disciplines, woven together with a
common thread of object technology.

For the first time, we will sponsor mid-year workshops on the
application of object technology to critical problems in major
industrial domains. Please see the details in the Call for
Participation, but be aware that the first deadline for these new
workshops is in late January 1997.

Consider actively participating in OOPSLA this year. This is a unique
opportunity to make a difference!

Experience Reports

Experience Reports have gained recognition as a valuable forum for
conference attendees to learn of the successes and pitfalls of
applying object technology to real-world, production quality software
development. Experience reports are short presentations of unrefereed
reports describing practical experiences of using object technology
to solve industrial or commercial problems.

Prospective speakers should submit a 4 to 8 page description of their
intended presentation. The description should identify and discuss in
detail two or three issues which represent the main contribution of
the talk. The submission must include a short abstract suitable for
inclusion in the advance program if it is accepted. The review
process for Experience Reports requires personal contact with
potential presenters; therefore, submissions must include authors'
contact information including postal address, telephone and fax
numbers, and electronic mail address. Selection will be based on
relevance and potential interest.

For further submission guidelines contact the Experience Reports
Chair or access the OOPSLA '97 web page. Copies of accepted
experience reports presentations will be distributed during the
conference and their extended abstracts will be collected after the
conference for publication in the OOPSLA Addendum.

  Submissions must be received by Experience Reports Chair: March 3, 1997.
  Notification of acceptance or rejection: May 1, 1997.
  Deadline for Addendum camera-ready and electronic copy: December 8, 1997.

Educators' Symposium

The OOPSLA Educators' Symposium is specifically designed for
professionals who have a vested interest in object technology
education and training. This one-day symposium is a unique forum for
educators and practitioners to discuss their educational needs and
their ideas in incorporating object technology into courses,
curricula, and training plans. The symposium will include invited
talks, paper presentations, panels, demonstrations, and possibly
OOPSLA workshop reports.

We solicit papers, and proposals for panels, demonstrations, and
workshop reports. Topic areas include: teaching experience in object
technology at any level, effective object technology case studies and
exercises, collaboration efforts between academia and industry for
technology education and training, needs analysis for education and
training, and innovative pedagogical approaches and techniques for
teaching object technology. Selection will be based on relevance,
clarity, and originality, as well as technical and educational merit.

Papers and demonstration proposals are limited to 10 pages, double
spaced. Panel proposals must include: panel topic, a description of
the key issues to be discussed; and each panelist's name, background,
and presentation summary.  Workshop report proposals must include a
copy of the OOPSLA submitted workshop proposal as described in the
Workshops section. The workshop proposal must also be submitted to
the Workshops Chair. For all submissions, a separate cover sheet must
contain the name, affiliation, address, phone and fax numbers, and
electronic mail address of the author or contact person.

Three copies of each submission should be mailed to the Educators'
Symposium Chair. Facsimile and electronic submissions will NOT be
accepted.

ACM SIGPLAN and OOPSLA will provide a scholarship program for
educators from two and four year colleges.  Scholarships will cover
conference expenses and contribute to travel expenses. Interested
educators should contact the Educators' Symposium Chair for further
submission guidelines.

  Submissions must be received by Educators' Symposium Chair: March 3,
1997.
  Notification of acceptance or rejection: May 1, 1997.

Panels

OOPSLA panels have always been informative and lively and are among
the best-attended events at the conference. If you would like to
engage large numbers of OOPSLA '97 attendees in debate or discussion
of a current topic, we invite you to organize and submit a panel
proposal.

A successful panel raises important issues and encourages discussion,
both among panelists and between panelists and the audience.
Creativity in the panel format, audience engagement, and actual
discussion by panel participants are key factors in making panels
stimulating and useful. Your proposed panel format should include
considerations of audience size (a popular panel might attract
upwards of 1000 attendees). However, panel content is also important:
good panels provide a forum for lively discussion, but excellent
panels also deliver a few key practical suggestions or take-home
lessons. We prefer not to offer panels that simply provide an
opportunity for panelists to give short talks on their own areas of
expertise.

Panels will be presented in parallel with papers; each panel will be
no more than 90 minutes in length, with at least 45 minutes allotted
for discussion and debate. Although the standard format has panelists
introducing their positions followed by open discussion and debate,
we welcome other more creative formats.

Each submission must include the panel title, a brief summary of the
key issues to be discussed, the proposed panel format (including any
unusual operational issues), panel moderator contact information
(name, affiliation, address, phone and fax number, electronic mail
address), the concrete suggestions the panel might deliver to the
audience (if appropriate), and panelist information (for each panel
member, supply background biographical information and a short
position statement on the issues and the concrete steps). Panel
proposals should be submitted by e-mail: plain text files, please.

  Proposals must be received by Panels Symposium Chair: March 3, 1997.
  Notification of acceptance or rejection: May 1, 1997.
  Deadline for camera-ready and electronic copy: July 18, 1997.

Workshops

OOPSLA workshops are intensive collaborative sessions, one-half to
one day in length, where groups of object technologists meet to
surface, discuss, and solve challenging problems facing the field.

We encourage innovative workshops on areas related to object
technology as well as more traditional object topics.  Example
workshop topics include:

     Security issues in distributed object technology
     Process Modeling and Object Technology
     Object technology in specific domains
          (e.g., financial, manufacturing, insurance)
     Design Patterns in the real world
     Performance Engineering and Object Technology
     CORBA and the World Wide Web

Workshop organizers typically solicit a short position paper from
interested individuals, and choose workshop participants based on the
merits and relevance of their submissions.

Prospective organizers must submit a proposal of up to two pages in
length that includes a description of the primary workshop themes, a
description of the problems to be addressed, a proposed agenda, and a
list of references to other papers, workshops, and forums motivating
the workshop. Proposals must also contain names, affiliations,
addresses, phone and fax numbers, and electronic mail addresses of
all prospective organizers, and indicate a primary contact. Each
workshop must have at least two organizers, preferably from different
organizations. E-mail submissions are preferred.

  Proposals must be received by Workshop Chair: March 3, 1997.
  Notification of acceptance or rejection: May 1, 1997.
  Deadline for Addendum camera-ready and electronic copy: December 8, 1997.

Posters

The poster session is an alternative forum for authors to present the
results of their work. Posters cover the same technical areas of
interest and reflect the same degree of professionalism as the
technical papers, yet differ in the manner in which the material is
presented by the authors. There is an interactive session associated
with the posters, where all the poster authors attend their posters
and conference attendees can discuss the work with the authors. The
discussions tend to be open and free-flowing and you are allowed to
ask the viewers questions as well as have them ask questions of you!
Posters are particularly appropriate for work that is too preliminary
for a paper session.

The OOPSLA '97 Poster Session allows close interaction between
authors and attendees interested in a specific theoretical or applied
approach to object technology. Posters should provide both visual
impact and the ability to stimulate interaction among attendees.

Authors are provided display space and are required to be available
during designated times (approximately 4 hours).

For consideration, send three copies of the poster proposal to the
Poster Chair. Proposals must include an extended abstract (limited to
8 typed double-spaced pages), a list of keywords, and a preliminary
graphic layout. A cover sheet should list the name, affiliation,
address, phone and fax numbers, and electronic mail address for all
authors.

  Proposals must be received by Poster Chair:  July 3, 1997.
  Notification of acceptance or rejection: July 18, 1997.
  Deadline for camera-ready and electronic copy: July 29, 1997.

Tutorials

OOPSLA is well known for the breadth, depth, and high quality of its
extensive tutorial program. In previous years, OOPSLA tutorials have
covered all aspects of object-oriented technology from introductory
surveys and industrial software engineering practices to advanced,
leading edge academic research topics. To continue this tradition,
tutorial proposals of all levels are solicited for OOPSLA '97.

Based on feedback from our past attendees, we especially encourage
proposals on Patterns, Object Persistence, Programming Environments,
Distributed Objects, and Java and Web related topics.

Anyone considering submitting a proposal for a tutorial should
request the guidelines on tutorial submissions from the Tutorials
Chair or the OOPSLA '97 web page. Electronic mail submission of
proposals is encouraged. Submissions without electronic mail
addresses will not be considered.

  Proposals must be received by Tutorial Chair:  March 3, 1997.
  Notification of acceptance or rejection: May 1, 1997.
  Deadline for camera-ready and electronic copy: July 18, 1997.

The high-tech, high-touch OOPSLA Exhibits provide a venue for
companies to showcase their OO products and services to the diverse
community of academic and commercial representatives who participate
in the Conference.

The Exhibits are open during the three most active days of the
Conference, allowing ample time and opportunity for exhibitors to get
their message across.

Exhibitors include software developers, recruiters, training
consultants, technology researchers, framework architects and
publishers in the field of object technology.

Each year, the OOPSLA "Booksellers' Alley" section of the Exhibits
features the latest books and periodicals from prominent object
technology authors and leading publishing houses.

For those organizations interested in exhibiting, the OOPSLA '97
Exhibitor Prospectus will be mailed in March. To get on the mailing

Doctoral Symposium

OOPSLA'97 will again host a forum for graduate students to present
and discuss their dissertation research. Doctoral students who are
within one year of thesis completion are invited to apply to the
Doctoral Symposium, a closed session in which a group of 8-10
students present their research in a workshop format to each other
and a group of 4 to 5 mentors.  The one-day symposium aims to broaden
the perspectives of new entrants to the object-technology research
community and to provide constructive comments on the ongoing thesis
research.

Each applicant should have an approved committee and topic. We are
looking for students who are advanced enough to have a specific
research proposal and some preliminary results, but with sufficient
time remaining to thesis completion to benefit from the symposium
experience. Application forms for describing the thesis topic and
progress are available from the Symposium chair. A brief letter of
recommendation from the student's thesis advisor is also required.
Students selected as participants will receive partial reimbursement
for conference-related expenses.

Students may request application forms by electronic mail beginning
January 1997. Requests for application forms may be e-mailed to the
Symposium Chair.

  Applications must be received by Symposium Chair:  May 1, 1997.
  Notification of acceptance or rejection: July 18, 1997.

Demonstrations

Demonstrations are an outstanding vehicle for sharing the novel and
interesting technical aspects of your object-oriented projects,
tools, or systems. Presentations must be in the form of running
computer programs, although a brief overview presentation is expected.

We are seeking proposals for demonstrations of commercial and
in-house applications, as well as academic and corporate research.
Demonstrations will be selected on the basis of technical merit,
relevance to object-oriented technology, novel features, and
feasibility of presentation at OOPSLA. Presenters of accepted
demonstrations must be members of the development or implementation
team and must keep in mind that they will demonstrate to a technical
audience looking for technical content.

A word of caution to commercial developers: product marketing or
sales presentations are inappropriate for this forum and will be
rejected without consideration. Demonstrations of commercial products
should be focused on presenting the technical content of the product
itself, and must not be related to the commercial aspects of the
product. Any comment regarding availability or pricing during the
demonstration itself will be grounds for cancellation.

Anyone considering submitting a proposal for a demonstration should
contact the Demonstrations Chair or access the conference web page
for guidelines on demonstration submissions. Electronic mail
submissions and those using the HTML form provided on the conference
web page will be greatly appreciated. Note that because a significant
amount of communication will occur via electronic mail, any proposal
without an electronic mail address cannot be accepted.  Abstracts of
the accepted demonstrations will be published in the OOPSLA Addendum.

  Proposals must be received by Demonstrations Chair: July 3, 1997.
  Notification of acceptance or rejection: July 18, 1997.
  Deadline for Addendum camera-ready and electronic copy: December 8, 1997.

Student Volunteers

The top people in object-oriented technologies and software
development organize and will attend the OOPSLA'97 Conference. The
student volunteers program is an opportunity for students from around
the world to associate with these experts. In return for about ten
hours of their time, students receive complimentary registration and
other bonus benefits.  In the past, job assignments have included
checking badges at doors, helping with traffic flow, assisting with
tutorials and panels, and general "go-for" assistance to keep the
conference running smoothly. Interested graduate and undergraduate
students should contact the Student Volunteers Chair no later than
July 18, 1997. Electronic mail is required for all correspondence.

Mid-Year Workshops

The OOPSLA Conference Committee and ACM SIGPLAN are planning a set of
collocated workshops on "Applied Object Technology" during the early
Summer of 1997. (Tentative location is Long Island, NY). The purpose
of this new event is to bring together people who are working on the
application of object technology to the critical problems in major
industrial domains such as finance, telecommunications, health,
manufacturing, electronic commerce, and government.  (Three to four
domains will be selected for the final workshops).

The organizers will be chosen on the basis of experience and
knowledge in the application of object technology to specific
domains. A set of organizers will be selected in each area to share
the work and provide a spectrum of viewpoints. The workshops in each
domain will run two days. The suggested agenda is to focus on current
activities during the first day's session followed by future
directions on the second day. Rooms will also be available for
evening bird-of-a-feather sessions on generic areas of applied object
technology (for example, frameworks, business objects, and project
management).

Proposals from organizers should include the following: (1) the
application domain (for example, telecommunications), (2) a
description of the organizer's work and background in the domain, (3)
the organizer's perspective on the state of object technology
applications in the domain, (4) a discussion of the domain-specific
future requirements and directions that should be addressed during
the workshop.

Proposed workshops must have an open call for participation, but
participation in a workshop may be based on submission of a technical
position paper. Proposals, questions, and early requests to
participate in a workshop should be sent to the Mid-Year Workshops
Chair.

  Proposals must be received by Mid-Year Workshops Chair: January 24, 1997.
  Notification of acceptance or rejection of proposals: February 3, 1997.
