Workshop on Object-Oriented Software Engineering Practice

September 17-19, 1991, Japan


Object-oriented technology promises to revolutionize the
software development process. Like in any revolution old
ways need to be replaced by new. This workshop aims to
foster a dialogue between researchers and practitioners
to facilitate this revolution. The aim is to set an agenda
for research and practice for the next decade and beyond
so as to foster an improved effectiveness of object-oriented
technology usage, improving the technology transfer process
that allows for a continual refinement of good engineering
practice as relevant to the object-oriented paradigm and the
evolution of object-oriented technology paradigm to incorporate
new and useful concepts.

The workshop will be limited to approximately 20 papers.
As a first step papers (maximum size 20 double-spaced pages)
are invited on areas of critical concern to the object-
oriented development community. All submissions must include
the author's name(s), affiliation, telephone and facsimile
numbers, e-mail address, areas of responsibility/research,
paper title, and an abstract on the cover page. Selected
participants will be invited to submit revised papers which
will be circulated amongst the participants prior to the
workshop. The submitted papers will be required to be revised
considering the feedback and discussions at the workshop and
these will be published.

Broad-based papers are encouraged. Topics for the workshop shall in-
clude but are not limited to the following:

-	object-oriented methodologies, CASE tools
-	testing and verification of object-oriented systems
-	life-cycle, large-scale development
-	library management
-	metrics for effort, quality etc.
-	merging with existing and new technologies

Emphasis should be placed on the technology transfer process and a 
faster practical realization of benefits. Special consideration will be
given to those topics and controversial positions that are not normally
covered in other technical forums.


Please Submit FIVE copies of paper (maximum 20 double-spaced pages) to:
