In cooperation with ACM SIGPLAN

=== Call for papers ===

The Workshop on Self-sustaining Systems (S3) is a forum for discussion
of topics relating to computer systems and languages that are able to
bootstrap, implement, modify, and maintain themselves. One property of
these systems is that their implementation is based on small but
powerful abstractions; examples include (amongst others)
Squeak/Smalltalk, COLA, Klein/Self, PyPy/Python, Rubinius/Ruby, and
Lisp. Such systems are the engines of their own replacement, giving
researchers and developers great power to experiment with, and explore
future directions from within, their own small language kernels.

S3 will be take place September 27-28, 2010 at The University of
Tokyo, Japan. It is an exciting opportunity for researchers and
practitioners interested in self-sustaining systems to meet and share
their knowledge, experience, and ideas for future research and
development.

--- Submissions and proceedings ---

S3 invites submissions of high-quality papers reporting original
research, or describing innovative contributions to, or experience
with, self-sustaining systems, their implementation, and their
application. Papers that depart significantly from established ideas
and practices are particularly welcome.

Submissions must not have been published previously and must not be
under review for any another refereed event or publication. The
program committee will evaluate each contributed paper based on its
relevance, significance, clarity, and originality. Revised papers will
be published as post-proceedings in the ACM Digital Library.

Papers should be submitted electronically via EasyChair at
http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=s32010 in PDF
format. Submissions must be written in English (the official language
of the workshop) and must not exceed 10 pages. They should use the ACM
SIGPLAN 10 point format, templates for which are available at
http://www.acm.org/sigs/sigplan/authorInformation.htm.
