ICOOOLPS 2018 - 2018 International Workshop on Implementation, Compilation, Optimization of Object-Oriented Languages, Programs and Systems

The ICOOOLPS workshop series brings together researchers and practitioners working in the field of language implementation and optimization. The goal of the workshop is to discuss emerging problems and research directions as well as new solutions to classic performance challenges.
The topics of interest for the workshop include techniques for the implementation and optimization of a wide range of languages including but not limited to object-oriented ones. Furthermore, meta-compilation techniques or language-agnostic approaches are welcome, too.
A non-exclusive list of topics of interest for this workshop is:
Implementation and optimization of fundamental languages features (from automatic memory management to zero-overhead metaprogramming)
Runtime systems technology (libraries, virtual machines)
Static, adaptive, and speculative optimizations and compiler techniques
Meta-compilation techniques and language-agnostic approaches for the efficient implementation of languages
Compilers (intermediate representations, offline and online optimizations,…)
Empirical studies on language usage, benchmark design, and benchmarking methodology
Resource-sensitive systems (real-time, low power, mobile, cloud)
Studies on design choices and tradeoffs (dynamic vs. static compilation, heuristics vs. programmer input,…)
Tooling support, debuggability and observability of languages as well as their implementations
