The Rexx Language Association invites you to participate in the 2019 International Rexx Symposium. This two-and-half-day technical conference will address topics related to the Rexx family of programming languages: Classic Rexx, NetRexx, and Open Object Rexx. Your knowledge and experience will be welcome, and may take the form of a presentation or a formal paper.

The International Rexx Symposium is the only technical conference dedicated to the Rexx family of programming languages, drawing speakers and attendees from around the world.

The technical program will feature topics addressing Rexx solutions to business problems, application development challenges, Rexx language enhancements and extensions, novel Rexx programming ideas, and the design and implementation of Rexx interpreters and compilers.

The full range of Rexx platforms and environments will be represented, from the mainframe to the desktop to the PDA/phone, and from legacy operating systems to Linux to Java.

Proposals for Symposium presentations and papers are hereby solicited!

Presentations and papers in the following topic areas are of particular interest:

Novel, clever, or interesting problem solutions using ooRexx or Classic Rexx
Rexx interfaces to Open Source products such as Java, OpenOffice, Linux, etc.
Cross-platform integration/automation
Mainframe, large-scale, or mission-critical Rexx applications
ANSI Standard-compliant extensions to Rexx interpreters
Deploying Rexx applications on unusual or diverse platforms
Multi- and cross-platform applications
Rapid prototyping in Rexx
Designing Rexx applications for performance and portability
Procedural and O-O Rexx interpreters, compilers, and libraries
Using Rexx with other technologies such as telephony and wireless
Re-hosting legacy Rexx applications
Products that use Rexx as a scripting or macro language
