SEVENTH INTERNATIONAL EIFFEL USER CONFERENCE
RAMADA RENAISSANCE, SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA
November 27, 1990
(During the TOOLS PACIFIC week)
Call for participation and registration form
The seventh Eiffel Users Conference will be the first ever to be held
in the Pacific region, reflecting the growing use of Eiffel in
industrial and academic organizations in the Far East.
The Conference will take place during the week of TOOLS (Technology
of Object-Oriented Languages and Systems), held in Sydney on November
28-30.
As with the past six conferences, the November 1990 meeting will
provide a forum for users to share experiences and interact with
implementors. An added attraction of the seventh conference is the
emerging availability of third-party Eiffel tools and libraries of
reusable classes.
The conference will be held in Sydney, Australia, on November 27.
The venue is the Ramada Renaissance, 30 Pitt Street, Sydney. The
conference will proceed half-day, from 1pm to 5:30pm, followed by a
reception.
The meeting will be devoted to user presentations and panel
discussions. Representatives of Interactive Software Engineering
will give a preview of future developments of their implementation
and tools.
The conference is open to Eiffel users and to anyone maintaining a
serious interest in Eiffel. Participants are invited to submit
contributions on Eiffel-related topics; contributions may be in the
form of technical presentations, or proposals for working groups or
panels. Authors of accepted contributions will attend the meeting
free of charge.
Technical presentations may be submitted as either complete papers or
one-page abstracts. Examples include:
+ Reports on experiences with Eiffel.
+ Description of current or future projects.
+ Interfaces with other tools and systems (graphics packages,
database management systems, expert systems etc.).
+ Presentations of reusable components written in Eiffel.
+ Role of Eiffel for teaching software engineering and computer
science.
