                   ECOOP 2017 - CALL FOR  PARTICIPATION
        The 31st European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming

                   19-23 June 2017, Barcelona, Spain

******************************************************************

ECOOP is a programming languages conference. Its primary focus has
been object-orientation, though in recent years, it has accepted
quality papers over a much broader range of programming topics. Areas
of interest include, but are not limited to, the theory, design,
implementation, optimization, and analysis of programs and programming
languages. It solicits both innovative and creative solutions to real
problems, and evaluations of existing solutions in ways that shed new
insights. It also encourages the submission of reproduction studies.

VENUE : Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, Barcelona, Spain
