                                                (ECOOP-PLOS 2005)


                                          Call for Contributions




This workshop aims at bringing together researchers and developers from
the programming languages (PL) and the operating systems (OS) domains.
It will provide a platform for discussing new visions, challenges,
experiences,problems,and solutions arising from the application of
advanced programming and software engineering concepts to operating
systems construction.


TOPICS


Suggested topics for papers and discussion include, but are not
restricted to:


* object-oriented OSs, type-safe languages for OS
* separation of concerns in OS code, AOSD and OS
* domain-specific languages for OS development
* language support for OS verification, testing, and debugging,
    static configuration, dynamic reconfiguration, and specialization


SUBMISSION GUIDELINES


Prospective participants of the workshop are asked to submit a
position paper or experience report (up to 4 pages). Submission of
industry papers is particularly encouraged. All papers must be written

[June 15, 2005] notification of acceptance
[June 30, 2005] submission of camera-ready versions


WORKSHOP PREPARATION AND FORMAT


This workshop will be highly interactive. Accepted papers will be
posted on the workshop website ahead of the venue and participants are
expected to familiarize themselves with the content of at least three
papers. In particular, participantsshould prepare questions, comments
and a list of suggested improvements for the authors of the three
papers they selected.


To prepare a special collaborative work session the organizers will
use the position papers and the input by the participants to compile a
list of questions,which will be discussed and answered during the
workshop in discussion groups. The list can be extended or changed
during the workshop, if the discussionbrings up additional interesting
questions.


PUBLICATION


Presented papers will be published electronically on the workshop web
page and in a printed version (a technical report). The workshop
summary (including paper summaries) will be considered for inclusion
in the ECOOP 2005 workshopreader.
