FOOL 4: Fourth Int'l Workshop on Foundations of Object-Oriented Languages
DSL'97: First ACM SIGPLAN Workshop on Domain-Specific Languages
The 24th Symposium on Principles of Programming Languages (POPL'97) will
address fundamental principles, important innovations, and accomplishments
in the design, definition, analysis, and implementation of programming
languages, programming systems, and programming interfaces. Both practical
and theoretical papers will be presented, including descriptions of
theoretical frameworks and reports on experiences with practical
applications.
Thirty-six papers, spanning a broad range of topics, will be presented.
These papers were selected from over 225 submitted abstracts which were
reviewed by the Program Committee. In addition to the papers, three
distinguished researchers have been invited to give lectures, one starting
each day of the conference.
In addition to the main three-day POPL'97 program on January 15-17, 1997,
four one-day workshops will be sponsored by SIGPLAN. Preceding POPL'97 on
Tuesday, January 14, will be the First ACM SIGPLAN Workshop on Automated
Analysis of Software (AAS'97) and the Second ACM SIGPLAN Workshop on
Continuations (CW'97). Then, after POPL'97 on Saturday, January 18, the
Fourth International Workshop on the Foundations of Object-Oriented
Languages (FOOL-4) and the First ACM SIGPLAN Workshop on Domain-Specific
Languages (DSL'97) will be held.
