OOPSLA 2009

Mind, body, and soul

OOPSLA, the original conference devoted to object-oriented programming, has grown in scope to encompass programming, practices and paradigms addressing current software challenges, such as programmer productivity, security & reliability, ultra-large scale systems and evolving hardware platforms.

Why go to a conference when we can learn and share our experiences through web sites, blogs, irc, podcasts, social networking and other Internet channels? Past OOPSLA attendees will tell you: Internet interactions pale in comparison to the richness and intensity of up to 14 hours of continuous face-to-face interaction each conference day.

At OOPSLA, you can find out about the latest developments from research and industry, participate in a workshop, improve your skills at a hands-on tutorial, or join other sessions that will feed your mind in creative and fun ways.

After the formal sessions is the perfect time to get to know fellow attendees while nourishing the body, either at one of the social events or at one of the many nearby restaurants and pubs.

The soul needs nurturing too! OOPSLA's keynote speakers offer outside perspectives on our profession and explore our ethical and philosophical relations to culture, society and the world community.

To feed your mind, body and soul, please join us at OOPSLA 2009 in Orlando, Florida.

To give you peek behind the curtains of OOPSLA, I interviewed Gary Leavens, the Program Chair for 2009, on all things OOPSLA: past, present and future. Here is the fist part of that interview with a main focus on the past.
