Yoshiki Ohshima - Croquet Microverse - 26 April 2023

by Giovanni Corriga

For this month's online presentation, Yoshiki Ohshima will demonstrate the Croquet Microverse ( https://croquet.io/ ), which is a 3D collaborative construction environment. It is an incarnation of Smalltalk-based Croquet but instead implemented in JavaScript. Microverse allows a group of users to collaboratively create new objects in a virtual space, and describe their behaviors in the live programming manner that can be used by professional programmers. The object extension mechanism used in the Microverse is heavily influenced by past class and object extension mechanisms, many of which originated from experimentation and implementation in Smalltalk. Likewise, the architecture of the Microverse application framework draws upon other frameworks such as Morphic and AppKit. Yoshiki will explain the connections between those systems and the Microverse. Yoshiki ( https://tinlizzie.org/ohshima/ ) joined Walt Disney Imagineering R&D in 2000 as an intern while attending the graduate school of Tokyo Institute of Technology, and helped develop prototypes of Disney's theme park attractions. He also has been involved in Alan Kay's research group, and participated in the research and development effort of education programming environment Squeak Etoys and later took the leading role. Yoshiki has worked at the Viewpoints Research Institute, SAP Labs CDG, and Y Combinator Research, all of which Dr. Kay founded or helped found. He was awarded his PhD. for designing and implementing a massively parallel particle programming system from Tokyo Institute of Technology. This will be an online meeting from home. If you'd like to join us, please sign up in advance on the meeting's Meetup page ( https://www.meetup.com/ukstug/events/292570084/ ) to receive the meeting details.

Call For Papers IWST 2023: International Workshop on Smalltalk Technologies /Lyon, France; August 29th-31st, 2023/ */Goals and scope/* The goals of the workshop is to create a forum around contributions and experiences in building or using technologies related to Smalltalk. While maturity of presented ideas and results is not crucial, it is expected that their presentation trigger discussion and exchange of ideas. The topics of your paper can be on all aspect of Smalltalk, theoretical as well as practical. Authors are invited to submit research articles or industrial papers. *Important Dates* * Submission deadline: May 14th, 2023 * Notification deadline: June 11th, 2023 * Re-submission deadline: July 1st, 2023 * Workshop: August 29th-31st, 2023 *Topics* We welcome contributions on all aspects, theoretical as well as practical, of Smalltalk related topics such as: * Aspect-oriented programming, * Design patterns, * Experience reports, * Frameworks, * Implementation, new dialects or languages implemented in Smalltalk, * Interaction with other languages, * Meta-programming and Meta-modeling, * Tools *Submissions, reviews, and selection* We are looking for papers of two kinds: * Short position papers (5 to 10 pages) describing fresh ideas and early results. * Long research papers (more than 10 pages) with deeper description of experiments and of research results. Both submissions and final papers must be prepared using the CEUR ART 1-column style <https://ceur-ws.org/Vol-XXX/CEURART.zip>. All submissions must be sent via EasyChair submission page <https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=iwst23>. *Reviewing* 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 <https://ceur-ws.org/>. As the workshop form encourage 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 submissions 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 a Best Paper Award for this edition of IWST. We thank our financial contributors who make it possible for prizes for the three best papers (estimated): 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 author and that the presenting author must be registered at the ESUG conference. *Program chairs* * Stephane Ducasse, Inria Lille, France (chair), * Gordana Rakic, University of Novi Sad, Serbia (chair) *Program committee* * Nour Agouf, Inria Lille, France, * Vincent Blondeau, Lifeware, Switzerland, * Cedrick Beler, Ecole Nationale d Ingenieurs de Tarbes, Hautes-Pyrenees, France, * Nicolas Cardozo, Universidad de los Andes, Bogota, Colombia, * Celine Deknop, Universite catholique de Louvain (UCL), Belgium, * Michele Lanza, Software Institute, Universita della Svizzera italiana, Lugano, Switzerland, * Eric Lepors, Thales DMS, France, * Dave Mason, Ryerson University, Toronto, Canada, * Kim Mens, Universite catholique de Louvain (UCL), Belgium, * Ana-Maria Oprescu, University of Amsterdam, Neatherlands, * Jean Privat, University of Quebec in Montreal, Canada, * Pooja Rani, University of Bern, Switzerland, * Larisa Safina, Inria Lille, France, * Joao Saraiva, University of Minho, Portugal, * Benoît Verhaeghe, Berger-Levrault, Lyon, France, * Oleksandr Zaytsev, Cirad, UMR SENS, France
