Call for Papers

FOOL 10

Sponsored by ACM SIGPLAN

January 18, 2003
New Orleans, Louisiana
Following POPL '03


The search for sound principles for object-oriented languages has given rise to much work on the theory of programming languages during the past 15 years, leading to a better understanding of the key concepts of object-oriented languages and to important developments in type theory, semantics, and program verification. The FOOL workshops bring together researchers to share new ideas and results in these areas. The next workshop, FOOL 10, will be held in New Orleans, Louisiana, on Saturday January 18, 2003, the day after POPL '03.

A world-wide web page will be created and made available as an informal electronic conference proceedings. Correspondence and questions should be sent to fool10@di.unipi.it.
