The European Conference on Object-Oriented Programming (ECOOP) is an annual conference covering topics on object-oriented programming systems, languages and applications.
Like other conferences, ECOOP offers various tracks and many simultaneous sessions, and thus has different meaning to different people.
It operates under the auspices of the Association Internationale pour les Technologies Objets, a non-profit organization located in Germany.
Historically ECOOP has combined the presentation of academic papers with comparatively practical experience reports, panels, workshops and tutorials.
The winners of the annual AITO Dahl-Nygaard Prize are offered the opportunity to give a keynote presentation at ECOOP.
