                      SECOND CALL FOR CONTRIBUTIONS AND PARTICIPATION


                                                        Workshop on
              MULTIPARADIGM PROGRAMMING WITH OO LANGUAGES (MPOOL 2004)
                                                (June 14 or 15, TBD)
                                                              at the
    EUROPEAN CONFERENCE ON OBJECT-ORIENTED PROGRAMMING (ECOOP 2004)
                                        June 14-18, 2004, Oslo, Norway




While OO has become ubiquitously employed for design, implementation,
and even conceptualization, many practitioners recognize the
concomitant need for other programming paradigms according to problem
domain. We seek answers to the question of how to address the need
for other programming paradigms in the general context of OO
languages.


Can OO programming languages effectively support other programming
paradigms? The answer seems to be affirmative, at least for some
paradigms; for example, significant progress has been made for the
case of functional programming in C++. Additionally, several efforts
have been made to integrate support for other paradigms as a front-end
for OO languages (the Pizza language, extending Java, is a prominent
example).


This workshop seeks to bring together practitioners and researchers in
this developing field to `compare notes' on their work---describe
existing, developing, or proposed techniques, idioms, methodologies,
language extensions, or software for expressing non-OO paradigms in OO
languages; or theoretical work supporting or defining the same.
High-level presentations of position are welcome.


Specific areas of interest include, but are not limited to:


    * non-OO programming with OO languages;
    * merging functional/logic/OO/other programs (language crossbinding);
    * non-OO programming at the meta level (e.g. template etaprogramming);
    * module systems vs.\ object systems;
    * OO design patterns and their relation to functional patterns;
    * multiparadigm and multilingual programming in the .NET framework;
    * type system relationships across languages;
    * theoretical foundations of multiparadigm programming with OO
        languages.




The workshop will consist of short presentations with interspersed
discussion sessions, and longer general discussions of themes or topics
derived from some common element of subsets of presentations. We expect
the majority of the participants to give presentations.


Prospective participants may submit either presentation abstracts or
position papers. All accepted materials will be distributed at the
workshop and also made available at the MPOOL 2004 WWW site.


For authors of accepted presentations who require justification for
travel the organizers can provide official letters of invitation.




SUBMISSION PROCEDURE


Prospective authors are invited to submit abstracts or position papers
in PDF, Postscript, Microsoft Word, or ASCII text.
