<br>
Last year, Smalltalks 2007 (1st Argentinian Smalltalk Conference) was a<br>
lively forum on Smalltalk-based software technologies that attracted over<br>
more than 200 people from both academia and industry for three days. During<br>
this first conference, the industrial partners showed the applicability of<br>
Smalltalk in business, while the students and professors showed their<br>
research and didactic uses of Smalltalk. The presented approaches and<br>
methodologies concerned the language, its implementation technology, its<br>
programming tools as well as the software development culture it supports.<br>
In this year conference, we are extending the scope of the research and<br>
educational track to include other dynamic languages, not only Smalltalk.<br>
<br>
In this call, we invite research papers that report on original scientific<br>
research conducted in and/or for Smalltalk and Dynamic Languages in general.<br>
<br>
Topics of interest include, but are not restricted to:<br>
<br>
- Aspects, Aspect Languages and Applications.<br>
- Ambient Intelligence, Ubiquitous / Pervasive Computing and Embedded<br>
Systems.<br>
