The goal of the workshop is to create a forum around contributions and experiences in building or using technologies related to Smalltalk. While the maturity of presented ideas and results is not crucial, their presentation is expected to trigger discussion and exchange of ideas. The topics of your paper can be on all aspects of Smalltalk, theoretical as well as practical. Authors are invited to submit research articles or industrial documents.

Topics

We welcome contributions on all aspects, theoretical as well as practical, of Smalltalk-related topics. We itemize only some of them without setting limitations:

• Aspect-oriented programming,
• Context-oriented programming
• Software design and design patterns,
• Experience reports,
• Frameworks,
• Language design and implementation,
• New dialects or languages implemented in Smalltalk,
• Interaction with other languages,
• Meta-programming and Meta-modeling,
• Software analysis,
• Tools and technologies

Submission Guidelines

All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference.

We expect two kinds of paper submissions:

• Short position papers (5 to 10 pages) describing fresh ideas and early results.
• Long research papers (more than 10 pages) with more profound descriptions of experiments and research results.

Both submissions and final papers must be prepared using the CEUR ART style.

All submissions must be sent via the EasyChair submission page

Program Committee

• Gordana Rakić, chair

the list is to be extended...

Processing and publishing

Submissions will be reviewed by at least 3 reviewers. Selected papers will be invited to be presented at the workshop in Lyon and published in the CEUR-WS Proceedings.

As the workshop form encourages bringing fresh ideas and early results to be presented and discussed, and aims for giving a chance to young community members to learn and grow, it may happen that submission with discussion potential be conditionally accepted. In this case, authors are expected to strictly follow the recommendation of the reviewers and resubmit a new version for the second fast review by the chairs in collaboration with assigned reviewers, and for making the final decision.

Best Paper Award

To encourage the submission of high-quality papers, the IWST organizing committee is very proud to announce the Best Paper Award for this edition of IWST.

We thank the Lam Research Corporation for its financial contribution which makes it possible for prizes for the three best papers: 1000 USD for first place, 600 USD for second place and 400 USD for third place.

The ranking will be decided by the program committee during the review process. The awards will be given during the ESUG conference social event.

The Best Paper Award will take place only with a minimum of six submissions. Notice also that to be eligible, a paper must be presented at the workshop by one of the authors and that the presenting author must be registered at the ESUG conference.
