The purpose of the workshop is to provide an informal format and atmosphere in which ideas and current work can be presented and discussed at length. The workshop is designed to encourage the full participation of each attendee: both presenters and participants will be active contributors throughout the workshop. This year's workshop will be held in Seattle, Washington, just prior to the Second Symposium on Operating Systems Design and Implementation which will be held in Seattle, Washington from October 29-November 1. We hope that the conjunction of the two events will foster cross-fertilization between related research communities. The focus of the workshop is on how to effectively use objects inside operating systems and how to provide system support for object oriented applications in a variety of application domains. Subjects of particular interest include: + Using objects to make operating systems customizable, extensible and adaptable + Design patterns in operating systems + Objects on WWW and their OS support + Persistent objects and their OS support + Mobile Objects and their OS support The workshop is structured to encourage the submission of explorative work in the form of position papers. Position papers should be a maximum of 2500 words and should present initial work, new ideas, or a strong position statement. Attendance will be by invitation only. To be invited, an attendee must either submit a position paper. All submissions will be reviewed. All accepted papers will be published in a proceedings. The official language for the conference will be English. ORGANIZING COMMITTEE: Workshop Chair: Andrew Black (Oregon Graduate Institute) Program Chair: Nayeem Islam (IBM T.J.

A notice will be sent to the principal author upon receipt of every paper. Electronic submission via email is strongly encouraged. Please send your paper to the program chair at nayeem@watson.ibm.com Submissions are required to be in HTML, ASCII, or Postscript (uuencoded). Electronic submissions will be ACK'ed within a day or so of receipt. If the submission could not be successfully printed out on paper then the program chair will attempt to confer with the sender via email about what to do as an alternative submission means. Note: if you do not receive any acknowledgement message at all within a period of several days then the submission message may have gotten lost in transit and you should send a short email message to the program chair to alert him to the difficulty. -- Dr. Douglas C.
