	  Workshop on Object Oriented Document Manipulation
		   Rennes (France), May 29-31, 1989

OBJECTIVES

The advent of electronic publishing has led to increasing interest in
object-based description and processing of a document's structure.
Standards such as ODA and SGML are a first step in that way although
this is not made explicit. Hypertext and Hypermedia systems follow
another related road. Object-Oriented Languages, object-oriented
databases and more generally innovative techniques based on the object
model may help to support the handling of document logical structure.

This workshop deals with such ideas and welcomes research results,
prototype experiences, and surveys on
	Object Oriented Languages AND:
 extended abstract due (2-3 pages)\\		-- Document Structuration

		-- Imaging Models
		-- Mixed Mode Documents

		-- Document Databases
		-- Character Design and Recognition
		-- Parallel Processing of Documents
		-- etc.
