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.
