= Arrays and Objects: APL 2007 =

<<TableOfContents>>

The APL 2007 conference, sponsored by ACM SIGAPL,
has as its principal theme "Arrays and Objects" and,
appropriately, is co-located with OOPSLA 2007, in
Montreal this October.


APL 2007 starts with a tutorial day on Sunday, October 21, followed by a
two-day program on Monday and Tuesday, October 22 and 23.

APLers are welcome to attend OOPSLA program events on Monday and Tuesday
(and OOPSLA attendees are welcome to come to APL program events).

Registrants at APL 2007 can add full OOPSLA attendance at a favorable price.


== Conference Dates ==
 || Sunday            ||  Oct 21    ||   Tutorials ||
 || Monday, Tuesday   ||  Oct 22,23 ||   APL 2007 Program ||
 || Monday-Friday     ||  Oct 22-26 ||  OOPSLA program ||

== Keynote ==
APL 2007 keynote speaker:  Guy Steele, Sun Microsystems Laboratories


== Tutorials ==

 * Using objects within APL

 * Array language practicum

 * Intro to [language] for other-language users

  ( We expect that there will be at least one introductory
  tutorial on "classic" APL, and hope to have introductions
  to a variety of array languages )


We solicit papers and proposals for tutorials, panels and workshops on
all aspects of array-oriented programming and languages; this year we
have particular interest in the themes of:

 * integrating the use of arrays and objects

 * languages that support the use of arrays as a central and thematic technique

 * marketplace and education:  making practitioners aware of
 array thinking and array languages


Our interest is in the essential use of arrays in programming in any
language (though our historical concern has been the APL family of languages:  classic APL, J, K, NIAL, ....).


== Submission Dates ==

 * Tutorial, panel, and workshop proposals, and notice of intent to
 submit papers should be sent to the Program Chair as soon as possible, 
 preferably by the end of June.

 * Contributed papers, not more than 10 pages in length, are due
 by Monday, July 30, to the Program Chair.  Details of form of
 submission can be obtained from the program chair.

 * Deadline for detailed tutorial/panel/workshop information TBA.
