***************** Call For Contributions *****************
Onward! 09 The conference for new ideas, new paradigms, and reflections on everything to do with programming and software.
Sponsored by ACM SIGPLAN in cooperation with SIGSOFT
Co-located with OOPSLA 2009 Orlando, Florida October 25-29 2009
http://www.onward-conference.org
*** Deadline approaching *** June 26, 2009 Submission of short research papers July 2, 2009 Submission of films
***********************************************************
Onward! is a place for highly original ideas about how technological advances and new applications are going to shape computational fabrics of the future. Onward! is more radical, more visionary, and more open than other conferences to not so well proven but well argued ideas. We welcome different ways of thinking about, approaching, and reporting on programming languages and software engineering research. Onward! takes a broad and inclusive view of computation and seeks contributions from all fields represented at OOPSLA and other software conferences. Onward! particularly encourages contributions influenced by other disciplines such as art, philosophy, psychology, sociology, anthropology, biology, economics, communities, politics, ethics, or any other human endeavor. Anything to do with programming and software can be submitted. Anything!
Onward! is innovative not only with regard to its topics and ideas but also to the contribution formats. This year, we seek high quality submissions in one of the following categories:
*** RESEARCH PAPERS (Due June 26, 2009) *** While regular research papers tell what work has been done and validated in recent years, Onward! papers show what exciting work is being done right now. Onward! accepts papers that talk about innovative research work that is early in its life or is not in the mainstream. We request submissions of position papers that propose bold directions of research and advocate nontraditional methodologies. An Onward! paper does not need to contain a fully worked out theory or implemented system, but must be well-thought-out and compelling in its vision or uniqueness of thinking. Papers will be peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published in the OOPSLA 2009 Proceedings, and will appear in the ACM Digital Library. *** FILMS *** Years ago, sophisticated software systems had to be constructed by highly trained programmers who understood the ins and outs of software development. Today, with the advent of new mashup technologies and service architectures, these barriers have been lowered. The goal of this track is to explore new developments in how film and other narrative multimedia technologies can be used to enrich the software development process. Descriptions of accepted films will be published in the OOPSLA 2009 Companion, and will appear in the ACM Digital Library. *** ESSAYS (submission closed) ***
*** WORKSHOPS (submission closed) ***
*** HOW TO SUBMIT *** Electronic submission is required through the Onward! homepage. Text submissions must follow the standard ACM SIGPLAN format. Research papers should not exceed 8 pages. Submissions must not have been previously published, and must not be concurrently submitted for publication elsewhere (including journals and formal proceedings of conferences and workshops). Violation of this policy will result in desk-rejection of the submission.
