International Workshops on Foundations of Object-Oriented Languages

o

Goals

The FOOL workshops were initiated in 1993 with the assistance of grants from the NSF and ESPRIT to bring together researchers from around the world to discuss the theoretical foundations of object-oriented languages. Attendance at the first two workshops were by invitation only. Since then the workshops have been open to the public. FOOL 4, held in Paris in affiliation with POPL '97, attracted over 100 attendees.

Specific topics addressed in the workshop have included semantics, calculi, type theory, and program verification of object-oriented languages. More recently special efforts have been made to include contributions on foundational issues related to concurrent and distributed object-oriented languages, and database languages with object-oriented features.
