ISMM'07 CALL FOR PARTICIPATION
and Accepted Papers
2007 ACM International Symposium on Memory Management
co-located with OOPSLA 2007
Sponsored by ACM SIGPLAN
21-22 October 2007, Montreal
http://www.eecs.harvard.edu/~greg/ismm07/
To register for the symposium, see the OOPSLA registration page
at http://www.oopsla.org/oopsla2007. Note that the deadline for
early registration and reduced rates is Thursday, 13 September.
ISMM is a forum for research in management of dynamically allocated
memory. Areas of interest include but are not limited to: explicit
storage allocation and deallocation; garbage collection algorithms and
implementations; compiler analyses to aid memory management;
interactions with languages, operating systems, and hardware,
especially the memory system; and empirical studies of allocation and
referencing behavior in programs that make significant use of dynamic
memory.
This year's symposium is being held in conjunction with OOPSLA
in Montreal on October 21st and 22nd. Invited speakers include
Peter O'Hearn (Queen Mary, University of London) and David Kirk
(Chief Scientist NVIDIA). In addition to presentation of the papers
listed below, there will be an exciting "wild and crazy" ideas session
where participants will have a chance to discuss half-baked
and interesting ideas. All are welcome!
