[ecoop-info] MASPEGHI workshop at ECOOP, ECMFA and ECSA 2013

[Markku Sakkinen]

Call for contributions and participation
            MASPEGHI 2013
MechAnisms for SPEcialization, Generalization and inHerItance
-------------------------------------------------------------
Workshop in conjunction with ECOOP, ECMFA and ECSA 2013
Montpellier, France, 1st July, 2013

The MASPEGHI series of workshops, the latest of which took place
at ECOOP 2010 (Maribor, Slovenia), continues.

Topics
------

Contributions are invited on the following topics:
    Mechanisms for managing code reuse;
    Specialization and generalization of program components -
      classes, objects and other software entities;
    Single and multiple inheritance;
    Specialization and generalization hierarchies;
    Mixins;
    Traits;
    Virtual classes.
This list is not intended to be exclusive; if you have any doubt whether
your work falls under the scope of the workshop, you are invited to contact
the organizers.

The workshop is concerned at least with:
- the design of inheritance-related reuse mechanisms, including their
  dynamic semantics, static analysis, permissions and visibility;
- software engineering issues, including metrics, interactions with
  methodologies, and consequences for quality parameters such as
  maintainability and comprehensibility.
Authors primarily interested in implementation issues should consider
instead submitting to the ICOOOLPS workshop, also to be held in conjunction
with ECOOP, ECMFA and ECSA 2013.  These two workshops have been scheduled
on different days (ICOOOLPS on Tuesday, 2 June), so that it is possible
for the same person to attend both.

Submitted papers will be reviewed by a Programme Committee, and the final
versions of accepted papers will be published in the ACM Digital Library
(unless the authors do not want that).

Important deadlines
-------------------

    Paper submission: Sunday, 21 April
    Notification of acceptance or rejection: Sunday 19 May
    Early registration for the conference(s): Saturday, 31 May
    Final papers: Sunday, 9 June
      (may need to be changed when ACM DL requirements become known)
    Workshop: Monday, 1 July
