FOOL 9 Call for Participation


			CALL FOR PARTICIPATION

		 The Ninth International Workshop on
	       Foundations of Object-Oriented Languages

				FOOL 9

		       Sponsored by ACM SIGPLAN

			   January 19, 2002

			   Portland, Oregon
			  Following POPL '02

The search for sound principles for object-oriented languages has
given rise to much work on the theory of programming languages during
the past 15 years, leading to a better understanding of the key
concepts of object-oriented languages and to important developments in
type theory, semantics, and program verification. The FOOL workshops
bring together researchers to share new ideas and results in these
areas.

The next workshop, FOOL 9, will be held in Portland, Oregon, on
Saturday January 19, 2002, the day after POPL'02. To register for the
workshop, use the standard registration form, available through:
