PS: I would like to take the opportunity to insist on the fact that we are organizing a Smalltalk conference with an academic track and that it is important that people send article there. Lot of smalltalkers are producing interesting ideas. Here is the call for paper.
ESUG Academic Track 6-10 september 2004 Köthen, Germany http://www.esug.org
The European Smalltalk User Group is proud to announce that it will organize an academic track for the 12th year of existence of the ESUG Conference with an excellent program committee.
Scope: ====== The goal of the academic track is to have a forum for publications related to Smalltalk and dynamically-typed languages. We encourage authors to submit excellent quality papers as we plan to produce proceedings. The organizing committee strongly discourages the submission of product presentations and other marketing related material. The academic track is about research!
A non exhaustive list of topics is - new languages features (mixins, AOP,...) - meta and reflective programming - code analysis (refactoring,...) - process development (Agile processes, Unit testing, ...) - virtual machines (optimization, new trends, ...) - frameworks (web, graphical...) - software evolution (metrics,...)
The best papers will be published in a special issue of the Elsevier international journal "Computer Languages" http://www.elsevier.nl/locate/complang
