Reflective and meta-level techniques have now matured to the point where they are being used to address real-world problems in such areas as: programming languages, operating systems, databases, distributed computing, expert systems and web-computing. Following Reflection'96 held in San Francisco, this conference will provide an opportunity for researchers with a broad range of interests in meta-level architectures and reflective techniques to discuss recent developments in this field. It will also provide an opportunity for researchers to discuss their work with colleagues from other parts of computing. The conference aims not only at advances within the field of reflection and meta-level architectures, but also seeks to bridge related developments in other fields of computer science using reflection as the binding theme. In addition to paper presentations and invited talks, time will be reserved for intensive discussions on topics ranging from conceptual foundations to practical applications. PAPER SUBMISSION Papers will be accepted on topics including, but not limited to, the following: SYSTEMS AND APPLICATIONS Reflective operating systems Reflective middleware Concurrent and distributed systems Network management systems Embedded systems Fault-tolerant systems Mobile computing Database systems Collaborative systems Adaptive web-servers AI and knowledge-based systems Agents PROGRAMMING LANGUAGES Reflective programming languages (OO, functional, parallel, distributed, etc.) Implementation techniques (open compilers, specializers, analysis, etc.) REFLECTIVE SOFTWARE ENGINEERING Metaobject protocols Reflective programming methodologies and environments Aspect-Oriented Programming Adaptative software components Metamodels (UML, CORBA, etc.) Formal methods Safety and security issues FOUNDATIONAL Conceptual and theoretical foundations of reflection Reflective logics Semantics of reflective languages An original manuscript lpr-written in English, should be submitted no later than February 1, 1999 to the program chair. Electronic submissions of up to 20 pages (Postscript format following the LNCS guidelines) to reflection99@emn.fr are highly encouraged. An electronic mail address should be included; confirmation and all further correspondence with the program chair can be done electronically. Papers will be reviewed by the program committee; acceptance will be based on depth, quality, relevance, and scope. Accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings, which will appear in the series ``Lecture Notes in Computer Sciences'' (LNCS) from Springer-Verlag. LOCATION Saint-Malo is located in Brittany, approximately 400 km west of Paris, on the Channel. Known as the corsair city, its area is truly wonderful, including the famous Mont St-Michel abbey. For more information (in French), see http://www.ville-saint-malo.fr/. The congress center, le Palais du Grand Large, is located on the sea front, 200 meters away from the historical center.
