SPLASH 2017
Sun 22 - Fri 27 October 2017 Vancouver, Canada

The OCAP workshop seeks to bring together those interested in object-capability languages, systems, and applications. Object-capabilities offer a distinct approach to building robust, distributed systems that pose many interesting research and practical challenges. The workshop is designed to explore the latest developments in the theory and practice of the object- capability approach, and provide a forum for knowledge exchange and collaboration. Researchers working on object-capability and related methods, models, languages, and tools, as well as practitioners developing real-world systems and applications are welcome.

The OCAP workshop seeks to bring together those interested in object-capability languages, systems, and applications. Object-capabilities offer a distinct approach to building robust, distributed systems that pose many interesting research and practical challenges. The workshop is designed to explore the latest developments in the theory and practice of the object-capability approach, and provide a forum for knowledge exchange and collaboration. Researchers working on object-capability and related methods, models, languages, and tools, as well as practitioners developing real-world systems and applications are welcome.

We welcome presentation proposals in the form of short abstracts (2 pages maximum) on object-capability topics including experience reports, demos, theory, tools, applications and other relevant topics. Presentation proposals will be reviewed by the program committee for relevance and interest.
