                  Call For Papers and Participation

                          ACM Conference on
   Object Oriented Programming Systems, Languages, and Applications

          September 29 - October 2, 1986,  Portland, Oregon

OOPSLA-86 is a new ACM-sponsored conference that brings together
users  and implementors of object oriented systems.  Through
tutorials, papers, panel discussions and workshops, as well as
demonstrations, exhibits and videotapes, OOPSLA-86 will provide a
forum for sharing experience and knowledge among experts and
novices alike.

We invite technical papers, case studies, and surveys in the
following areas:

Theory:         Including core definition of object oriented
                programming, semantic models and methodology.

Languages:      Existing object oriented languages, extensions to
                conventional languages, and new languages.

Implementation: Including architectural support, compilation and
                interpretation, and special techniques.

Tools and       Including user interfaces, utilities and operating
Environments    system support.

Applications:   Commercial, educational, and scientific applications
                that exploit object oriented programming.

Related Work:   The object oriented paradigm in other fields such as
                databases and operating systems.

Papers on other relevant topics are welcome, as are proposals for
workshops and panel discussions.

All papers will be refereed prior to selection and inclusion in the
conference proceedings.  Technical papers will be selected on the
basis  of originality and contribution to the state of the art of
design, implementation, methodology, or practice.  Survey papers
will be selected on the basis of how well they crystallize and
integrate, in a way not  previously presented, knowledge about one
or more aspects of the field.

Papers must be submitted in English, and should be no longer than
25 double-spaced pages.  The cover page should include a title, an
abstract of not more than 100 words, and author's name, affiliation,
address and phone number.

Five copies must be received by the Program Chairman at the address
below, no later than April 1, 1986.  Authors will be notified of
acceptance by May 1, 1986, and final versions of accepted papers
will be due by June 15, 1986.  As the proceedings of this conference
will be widely disseminated, publication of more than an abstract of
a submitted paper is likely to inhibit republication in ACM's
refereed publications.

A room at the conference will be reserved for video presentations
that illustrate or supplement the concepts conveyed in other
presentations.  Submissions must run no longer than 15 minutes,
and should be on 3/4-inch U-Matic format tape.  Tapes must be
received by the Video  Chairman at the address below, no later
than July 1, 1986.
