'''OOPSLA''' ('''Object-Oriented Programming, Systems, Languages & Applications''') is an annual [[Association for Computing Machinery|ACM]] research conference. OOPSLA mainly takes place in the [[United States]], while the sister conference of OOPSLA, [[ECOOP]], is typically held in Europe.  It is operated by the Special Interest Group for Programming Languages ([[SIGPLAN]]) group of the [[Association for Computing Machinery]] (ACM).

OOPSLA has been instrumental in helping object-oriented programming develop into a mainstream programming paradigm.{{Cn|date=September 2023}} It has also helped incubate a number of related topics, including [[Design pattern (computer science)|design patterns]], [[refactoring]], [[aspect-oriented programming]], [[model-driven engineering]], [[agile software development]], and [[domain specific languages]].

The first OOPSLA conference was held in [[Portland, Oregon]] in 1986. As of 2010, OOPSLA became a part of the [[SPLASH (conference)|SPLASH]] conference.<ref>{{cite web|title=.doc document at SPLASH website|url=https://dl.acm.org/event.cfm?id=RE181|access-date=2018-12-02|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180109095206/https://dl.acm.org/event.cfm?id=RE181|archive-date=2018-01-09|url-status=dead}}</ref> SPLASH stands for Systems, Programming, Languages, and Applications: Software for Humanity.
