European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming: Difference between revisions

Content deleted Content added
I am removing the reference to what is the last/current conference because it's apparently unlikely to be maintained over time.
Line 3:
ECOOP is an annual conference covering topics on object-oriented programming systems, languages and applications. Like other conferences, ECOOP offers various tracks and many simultaneous sessions, and thus has different meaning to different people. It is more academic than some conferences, with doctoral students presenting papers for credit, and less academic than others.
 
The first ECOOP was held in [[Paris, France]] in 1986. It operates under the auspices of the ''Association Internationale pour les Technologies à Objets'' ([http://www.aito.org/ AITO]), a non-profit organization located in Germany. The 20th issue of ECOOP has taken place in [[Nantes]] in July 2006. The next one will be in [[Berlin]], Germany in July/August 2007.
 
ECOOP’s venue changes every year, and the categories of its program vary. Historically ECOOP has combined the presentation of academic papers with comparatively practical experience reports, panels, workshops and tutorials.
Line 9:
ECOOP helped object-oriented programming develop in Europe into what is now mainstream programming, and helped incubate a number of related disciplines, including [[Design pattern (computer science)|design patterns]], [[refactoring]], [[aspect-oriented programming]], [[Model Driven Engineering]], and [[agile software development]].
 
The sister conference of ECOOP in North America is [[OOPSLA]].
