Overview
*********
Object-oriented languages and similar languages are pervasive and play a significant role
in computer science and engineering life and sometime appear as ubiquitous and completely
mature. However, despite a large number of works, there is still a clear need for
solutions for efficient implementation and compilation of these languages in various
application domains ranging from embedded and real-time systems to desktop systems.

The ICOOOLPS workshop series thus aims to address this crucial issue of optimization in OO
and OO-like languages, programs and systems. It intends to do so by bringing together
researchers and practitioners working in the field of OO and OO-like languages
implementation and optimization. Its main goals are identifying fundamental bases and key
current issues pertaining to the efficient implementation,compilation and optimization of
such languages, and outlining future challenges and research directions.

Topics
******
Topics of interest for ICOOOLPS include but are not limited to:

* implementation of fundamental OOL features: 
  - inheritance (object layout, late binding, subtype test...) 
  - genericity (parametric types) 
  - memory models 
* runtime systems:
  - compilers
  - linkers 
  - virtual machines 
  - garbage collectors 
* optimizations: 
  - static and dynamic analyses
  - adaptive virtual machines
* resource constraints: 
  - real-time systems 
  - embedded systems (space, low power)... 
* relevant choices and tradeoffs: 
  - constant time vs. non-constant time mechanisms
  - separate compilation vs. global compilation 
  - dynamic loading vs. global linking 
  - dynamic checking vs. proof-carrying code 
  - annotations vs. no annotations
