OOPSLA 2009

State-of-the-art meets the state-of-practice...

Practitioners meet Researchers...

Software Engineering meets Programming Languages...

At OOPSLA 2009 we will:

• Seed Clouds, Scale and Mash, be Reliable and Agile.
• We will enjoy co-located events: WikiSym, Mini-PLoP, Dynamic Language Symposium, and Onward!
• Listen to some of the greatest voices in our industry:  Barbara Liskov, Jeannette Wing, Gerard Holzmann, Tom Malone, Brion Vibber,  Robert Johnson and many others.
• Attend Tutorials, Workshops, Research Papers, Lightning Talks, Panels, Demos, Posters, Educators' and Trainers' Symposium, Doctoral Symposium, DesignFest®, Onward Essays, Films, etc.
• Continue the tradition of contributing to our community, as we have done with: CRC cards, CLOS, design patterns, Self, the agile methodologies, service-oriented architectures, wikis, Unified Modeling Language (UML), test driven design (TDD), refactoring, Java, dynamic compilation, and aspect-oriented programming.

That is just a sampling of what makes OOPSLA the conference of choice for software technologists—from recognized academics to undergraduate students, from industrial researchers to developers and managers, from the creators of technology to its users.

We are proud to offer you OOPSLA and look forward to sharing the experience with you this year in Orlando.
