ECOOP'2009 23rd European Conference on Object Oriented Programming July 6th - 10th 2009, Genova, Italy http://2009.ecoop.org CALL FOR TUTORIALS http://2009.ecoop.org/summer-school.html The ECOOP 2009 Summer School will consist of prestigious tutorials on exciting current topics in software, systems, and languages research. The scope of the ECOOP Summer School is the same as the conference itself: all areas relevant to object technology, including work that takes inspiration from or builds connections to areas not commonly considered object-oriented. Tutorials should introduce researchers to current research in an area, and/or to show important new tools that can be used in research. The ECOOP 2009 Summer School will consist of tutorials that will last 90 minutes, and will be free to all attendees, scheduled during the main conference. Tutorial presenters will receive a tutorial room, standard AV equipment during a 90 minute session during the ECOOP conference, which will take place between 6-10 July 2009. Tutorials presenters must register themselves for participation in ECOOP --- the summer school cannot in general reimburse fees, but instead offers presenters a once-in-a-lifetime chance to interest ECOOP attendees, graduate students, and other researchers in your research area or tools (and undying fame). So, if you think ECOOP people need to know more about the area you work in, or could benefit from the great new tool you have developed, then you should propose an ECOOP summer school tutorial on this topic. A tutorial proposal (2 pages in LNCS format) should contain the names and email address of all presenters; the proposed topic to be covered by the tutorial; a tutorial outline; and a rationale explaining why ECOOP cannot be without your tutorial in 2009, and why you are the best people in the world to present this tutorial! Proposals should be submitted via the ECOOP submission system (tutorials category).
