(Sorry for multiple postings) This is the 3rd and last call for papers for the 17th Conference on Pattern Languages of Programs.
The final deadline is June 1st and there will be no further extension. So if you intend to submit a paper please do so by next Tuesday. Please note that you will be able to continue to work on your paper after the initial submission! ____________________________________________________________________________________ For those of you who know about patterns, this is your invitation to participate in this year’s Pattern Languages of Programs (PLoP) conference in Reno/Tahoe, Nevada, and share your knowledge with experts in your field. PLoP 2010 will be held in conjunction with Splash, formerly OOPSLA http://www.splashcon.org/. Whether you have been a pattern author in the past or wonder why no one has written down those patterns you know all too well, this is your chance to contribute your expertise and receive feedback from pattern experts and practitioners. PLoP is the premier international conference on patterns. Meet pattern enthusiasts from all over the world, learn about successful designs and architectures, and have your work discussed in a Writer’s Workshop. Patterns help to shape our world in a positive way by reporting successful solutions that have shown to work in the past. There is no need to reinvent the wheel when there is plenty of help offered by a community of practice. The purpose of PLoP is to promote the development of pattern languages, primarily about aspects of software: design and programming, testing, software architecture, user interface design, domain modeling, education, human relations, and software processes. Patterns and pattern languages for domains outside software are also welcome. The process of pattern mining documents recurrent best practices. It addresses practitioners and academics alike. We value those patterns that have practical application and help resolve difficult problems in design. The process of pattern writing is supported by the pattern community, which offers shepherding and Writer’s Workshops if you attend the PLoP conference. Paper submissions may include short papers containing one or more patterns, longer pattern languages or sequences, or work-in-progress papers for in-depth shepherding by experienced pattern authors at the conference. In addition, you can submit proposals for free-format discussion groups or workshops that bring together people interested in a hot topic related to patterns or proven practices, for a period of about two hours. Proposals addressing interdisciplinary topics and topics from other domains than software development are especially encouraged. Non-conventional formats are welcome. For more information, please visit: http://hillside.net/plop/2010/ Paper submissions are due on May 18, 2010, followed by shepherding where you will continue to work on your paper and get individual feedback from your shepherd. I am looking forward to reading your submissions, learning about the patterns that you have observed, and meeting you in Reno!
