===========================


ECOOP is a conference about programming originally focused on object orientation, but now including all practical and theoretical investigations of programming languages, systems and environments. ECOOP solicits innovative solutions to real problems as well as evaluations of existing solutions.

Authors are asked to pick one of the following categories:

- **Research.** The most traditional category for papers that advance the state of the art.

- **Replication.** An empirical evaluation that reconstructs a published experiment in a different context in order to validate the results of that earlier work.

- **Experience.** Applications of known PL techniques in practice as well as tools. Industry papers will be reviewed by practitioners. We welcome negative results that may provide inspiration for future research.

- **Pearls/Brave New Ideas.** Articles that either explain a known idea in an elegant way or unconventional papers introducing ideas that may take some time to substantiate. These papers may be short.


======= Submissions =======

Submission must not have been published, or have major overlap with previous work. In case of doubt, contact the chairs. Proceedings are published in open access by Dagstuhl LIPIcs in the Dagstuhl LIPIcs LaTeX-style template. To reduce friction when resubmitting, ACM's PACMPL and TOPLAS formatted papers can be submitted as such (with the understanding that if accepted, they will be reformatted).

ECOOP uses double-anonymous reviewing. Authors' identities are only revealed if a paper is accepted. Papers must omit author names and institutions, and use the third person when referencing the authors' own work. Nothing should be done in the name of anonymity that weakens the submission; see the FAQ. If in doubt, contact the chairs.

There is no page limit on submissions, but authors must understand that reviewers have a fixed time budget for each paper, so the length of the feedback is likely to be unaffected by length. Brevity is a virtue. Authors also have to consider that the camera-ready version must be at most 25 pages in LIPIcs format (not including references).

Authors will be given a three-day period to read and respond to the reviews of their papers before the program committee meeting. Responses have no length limit.


==== Artifact Evaluation and Intent ====

To support replication of experiments, authors of research papers may submit artifacts to the Artifact Evaluation Committee. They will be asked whether they intend to submit an artifact at submission time. It is understood that some papers do not have artifacts. AEC members will serve on the extended review committee.


============ Important Dates ============

ECOOP will continue to have two deadlines for submissions. Papers submitted in each round can be (a) accepted, (b) rejected, or (c) asked for revisions. Rejected papers that are submitted to the immediate next round can be desk-rejected if they do not sufficiently differ from the previous submission. Revisions can be submitted at any later round. Papers retain their reviewers during revision.

  - Submission R1: January 17, 2024
  - Artifacts R1: January 23, 2024
  - Response R1: March 6, 2024
  - Notification R1: March 19, 2024

  - Submission R2: April 17, 2024
  - Artifacts R2: April 23, 2024
  - Response R2: June 5, 2024
  - Notification R2: June 19, 2024


==== Journal First and Journal After ====

We have Journal First/After arrangements with ACM's Transactions on Programming Languages and Systems (TOPLAS), Elsevier's Science of Computer Programming (SCP) and AITO's Journal of Object Technology (JOT).

Only new research papers are eligible to be Journal First (JF). JF papers will have an extended abstract in the ECOOP proceedings. The deadline is the same as Round 1 of submissions and the notification is aligned with Round 2 notification. TOPLAS JF papers should be submitted according to this announcement. SCP JF papers should follow this call for papers. JF papers are presented at the conference and eligible for awards.

Journal After (JA) papers are papers for which the authors request to be considered for post conference journal publication. Once accepted by the ECOOP PC, these papers will be forwarded to the journal editors. Reviews and reviewers will be forwarded and used at the editor's discretion. JA papers will have an extended abstract (up to 12 pages) in the conference proceedings.

============ Call for Self-Nominations to ECOOP's AEC ============

Do you want to participate to ECOOP's artifact evaluation committee? Submit your nomination through the form:

https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://forms.office.com/pages/responsepage.aspx?id=FM9wg_MWFky4PHJAcWVDVsxYqwP3HnRPg6e_uRYr9uxURFc4VUdZSlpMSUlZVFhVS0ZNS0g4RkU3Vy4u__;!!IBzWLUs!WOeNbEPYP2dWBxGU2OZH5dhznmNyJuzawuejy2gE6RSKTd4Tbosli3qR824CnT-DwcTwU7wcdZQL45f0SJNK0zq9g5cosH_u7Jj9arSPk8w$ We welcome industry practitioners, researchers, and senior PhD students with prior ECOOP, ISSTA, or related SE/PL conference experience e.g., ICSE, ESEC/FSE, ASE, ECOOP, ISSTA, OOPSLA, POPL, PLDI, ICFP, SAS, ESOP, TACAS, CAV, or top SE/PL journals e.g., TSE, TOSEM, EMSE, TOPLAS.

You will have to review artifacts during two submission periods (mid-January to March and mid-April to June), and may also join paper reviews (i.e, some members of the AEC will be members of the External Review Committee). The co-chairs will process nominations in two rounds in December 2023 and early January 2024.



========== Call for ECOOP/ISSTA 2024 Workshop Proposals ==========

ECOOP/ISSTA intend to host a diverse offering of workshops bringing together academics, industrial researchers, and practitioners to exchange new ideas, problems, and experiences.


The workshop chair is reviewing submitted workshop proposals on a rolling basis until **March 29**.

Submission link: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://forms.gle/MjvcVpdJbPeAcDNcA__;!!IBzWLUs!WOeNbEPYP2dWBxGU2OZH5dhznmNyJuzawuejy2gE6RSKTd4Tbosli3qR824CnT-DwcTwU7wcdZQL45f0SJNK0zq9g5cosH_u7Jj9T4n__dw$ We hope that ECOOP/ISSTA and its co-located workshops will form the ideal occasion to meet each other again.


Topics for workshops may include, but are not limited to, the theory, design, implementation, optimization, testing, and analysis of programs and programming languages. Workshops will run before, during, and after the program of the main conference.

To submit a proposal for an ECOOP/ISSTA workshop, please complete the online application form linked below. After submitting, you will receive an automated email confirmation of your submission and, within at most four weeks (or shortly after the final submission deadline), a formal response notifying you if the workshop has been accepted for ECOOP/ISSTA.

Workshop proposals will be reviewed on a rolling basis, with the last submission date being on March 29, 2024.

Submission link: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://forms.gle/MjvcVpdJbPeAcDNcA__;!!IBzWLUs!WOeNbEPYP2dWBxGU2OZH5dhznmNyJuzawuejy2gE6RSKTd4Tbosli3qR824CnT-DwcTwU7wcdZQL45f0SJNK0zq9g5cosH_u7Jj9T4n__dw$
Each workshop must conform to the following conditions:
(1) The workshop's website must be live within two weeks of notification of the workshop's acceptance and include relevant information about the organizers and any call for contributions. (2) Workshops must send notifications for accepted papers by July 24, which will be about one week before the early registration deadline. (3) Workshops that intend to publish their proceedings by ACM as part of the ISSTA proceedings need to account for the camera-ready deadline on July 31.
