Call For Papers for the sixth annual workshop on Implementation, Compilation, 
Optimization of Object-Oriented Languages, Programs and Systems (ICOOOLPS) to be 
held at ECOOP 2011 in Lancaster, UK on July 26th 2011

http://www.icooolps.info/

Overview:

Computer programming languages, especially Object-Oriented 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 still is a clear need for solutions for efficient 
implementation and compilation of OO languages in various application domains 
ranging from embedded and real-time systems to desktop systems.

The ICOOOLPS workshop thus aims to address this crucial issue of optimization, 
mainly but not only in OO languages, programs and systems.  It intends to do so 
by bringing together researchers and practitioners working in the field of 
implementation and optimization of programming languages.  Its main goals are 
identifying fundamental bases and key current issues pertaining to the efficient 
implementation, compilation and optimization of OO languages, and outlining 
future challenges and research directions.

An expected output of this workshop is a synthesis identifying fundamental bases 
and key current issues pertaining to the efficient implementation and 
compilation of OO languages, in order to spread them further amongst the various 
computing systems.  It is also intended to extend this synthesis to encompass 
future challenges and research directions in the field of OO languages 
implementation and optimization, as well as non-OO languages.
