Since its first meeting in 1986, OOPSLA has encouraged the submission of papers that deviate from dominant field opinion and challenge existing value systems. When selecting a submission paper for presentation, criteria for judgment are novelty, interest, evidence and clarity.

OOPSLA is now part of Systems, Programming, Languages and Applications: Software for Humanity (SPLASH) - a larger discussion group. SPLASH also represents other conferences, such as the Dynamic Languages Symposium (DLS) and the International Lisp Conference (ILC).
