Ecoop 2012 Object Oriented Programming

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 26th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming, ECOOP 2012, held in Beijing, China, in June 2012. The 27 revised full papers presented together with two keynote lectures were carefully reviewed and selected from a total of 140 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on extensibility, language evaluation, ownership and initialisation, language features, special-purpose analyses, javascript, hardcore theory, modularity, updates and interference, general-purpose analyses.

The21stEuropeanConferenceonObject-OrientedProgramming,ECOOP2007, was held in Berlin, Germany, on July 30 to August 3, 2007. ECOOP is the most importantand inspiring forumin Europeandbeyond for researchers,practiti- ers, and students working in that smorgasbord of topics and approaches known as object orientation. This topic area was explored and challenged by excellent invited speakers—two of which were the winners of this year’s Dahl-Nygaard award—in the carefully refereed and selected technical papers, on posters, via demonstrations, and in tutorials. Each of the many workshops complemented this with a very interactive and dynamic treatment of more speci?c topics. - nally, panels allowed for loud and lively disagreement. Yet, it is one of ECOOP’s specialqualities that this plethora ofactivities add upto a coherentandexciting whole, rather than deteriorating into chaos. The Program Committee received 161 submissions this year. Only 135 of them were carried through the full review process, because of a number of - tractions and a number of submissions of abstracts that were never followed by a full paper. However, the remaining papers were of very high quality and we accepted25 of them for publication. Helping very goodpapers to be published is more useful than having an impressively low acceptance rate. The papers were selected according to four groups of criteria, whose priority depended on the paper: relevance; originality and signi?cance; precisionand correctness;and p- sentation and clarity. Each paper had three, four, or ?ve reviews, depending on how controversial it was.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 27th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming, ECOOP 2013, held in Montpellier, France, in July 2013. The 29 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 116 submissions. They are organized in topical sections on aspects, components, and modularity; types; language design; concurrency, parallelism, and distribution; analysis and verification; modelling and refactoring; testing, profiling, and empirical studies; and implementation.

The refereed proceedings of the 17th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming, ECOOP 2003, held in Darmstadt, Germany in July 2003. The 18 revised full papers presented together with 2 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 88 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on aspects and components; patterns, architecture, and collaboration; types; modeling; algorithms, optimization, and runtimes; and formal techniques and methodology.

This book constitutes the proceedings of the 28th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming, ECOOP 2014, held in Uppsala, Sweden, in July/August 2014. The 27 papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 101 submissions. They are organized in topical sections named: analysis; design; concurrency; types; implementation; refactoring; JavaScript, PHP and frameworks; and parallelism.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 16th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming, ECOOP 2002, held in Malaga, Spain, in June 2002. The 24 revised full papers presented together with one full invited paper were carefully reviewed and selected from 96 submissions. The book offers topical sections on aspect-oriented software development, Java virtual machines, distributed systems, patterns and architectures, languages, optimization, theory and formal techniques, and miscellaneous.

The 19th Annual Meeting of the European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming—ECOOP 2005—took place during the last week of July in Glasgow, Scotland, UK. This volume includes the refereed technical papers p- sented at the conference, and two invited papers. It is traditional to preface a volume of proceedings such as this with a note that emphasizes the importance of the conference in its respective ?eld. Although such self-evaluations should always be taken with a large grain of salt, ECOOP is undisputedly the pre- inent conference on object-orientation outside of the United States. In its turn, object-orientationis today’s principaltechnology not only for programming,but also for design, analysisand speci?cation of softwaresystems. As a consequence, ECOOP has expanded far beyond its roots in programming to encompass all of these areas of research—whichis why ECOOP has remained such an interesting conference. But ECOOP is more than an interesting conference. It is the nucleus of a technical and academic community, a community whose goals are the creation and dissemination of new knowledge. Chance meetings at ECOOP have helped to spawn collaborations that span the boundaries of our many subdisciplines, bring together researchers and practitioners, cross cultures, and reach from one side of the world to the other. The ubiquity of fast electronic communication has made maintaining these collaborations easier than we would have believed possible only a dozen years ago. But the role of conferences like ECOOP in establishing collaborations has not diminished.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 12th European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming, ECOOP'98, held in Brussels, Belgium, in July 1998. The book presents 24 revised full technical papers selected for inclusion from a total of 124 submissions; also presented are two invited papers. The papers are organized in topical sections on modelling ideas and experiences; design patterns and frameworks; language problems and solutions; distributed memory systems; reuse, adaption and hardware support; reflection; extensible objects and types; and mixins, inheritance and type analysis complexity.
