Call for Papers: ACL-02 . 40TH ANNIVERSARY MEETING OF THE ASSOCIATION FOR
COMPUTATIONAL LINGUISTICS
Philadelphia, PA, USA
7 - 12 July, 2002
The Association for Computational Linguistics invites the submission
of papers for its 40th Annual Meeting hosted jointly with the North
American Chapter of the ACL. Papers are invited on substantial,
original, and unpublished research on all aspects of computational
linguistics, including, but not limited to: pragmatics, discourse,
semantics, syntax and the lexicon; phonetics, phonology and
morphology; interpreting and generating spoken and written language;
linguistic, mathematical and psychological models of language;
language-oriented information retrieval, question answering,
summarization and information extraction; language-oriented machine
learning; corpus-based language modeling; multi-lingual processing,
machine translation and translation aids; natural language interfaces
and dialogue systems; approaches to coordinating the linguistic with
other modalities in multi-media systems; message and narrative
understanding systems; tools and resources; and evaluation of systems.
Requirements
- ----------
Papers should describe original work; they should emphasize completed
work rather than intended work, and should indicate clearly the state
of completion of the reported results. Wherever appropriate, concrete
evaluation results should be included. A paper accepted for
presentation at the ACL Meeting cannot be presented or have been
presented at any other meeting with publicly available published
proceedings. Papers that are being submitted to other conferences or
workshops must indicate this on the title page, as must papers that
contain significant overlap with previously published work. For
details see:
http://www.cis.udel.edu/~carberry/ACL/double-submission-policy.html
Submission Format
- ---------------
Submissions should follow the two-column format of ACL proceedings and
should not exceed eight (8) pages, including references. We strongly
recommend the use of ACL LaTeX style files or Microsoft Word Style files
tailored for this year's conference. They are available at
http://www.cs.ualberta.ca/~lindek/acl02/style/
A description of the format will also be available in case you are
unable to use these style files directly. As reviewing will be
blind. The paper should not include the authors' names and
affiliations. Furthermore, self-references that reveal the author's
identity, e.g., "We previously showed (Smith, 1991) ...", should be
avoided. Instead, use citations such as "Smith previously showed
(Smith, 1991) ...".
Papers that do not conform to the requirements above are subject to be
rejected without review.
Submission Procedure
- ------------------
1) Paper registration: You must submit a notification of submission
by filling out the form at
http://www.cs.ualberta.ca/~lindek/acl02/submit.htm
The authors should fill in the title of the paper, the authors' names,
affiliations, and email addresses, one or two general topic areas, up to 5
keywords specifying the subject area, and a short summary (up to 200 words).
The authors should also specify whether the paper is under consideration
for other conferences or workshops, and if so, which ones.
Each submission will be assigned an identification number. Please use
it on all correspondence with the program committee.
2) Paper submission: All papers must be submitted electronically at
the same web address. The first page of your paper must include the
identification number obtained from paper registration. The paper must be
submitted no later than 12 noon Mountain Time (7PM GMT) on

information about converting different types of documents to PDF. The
program committee will make every attempt to print out your paper
successfully, but cannot take responsibility if they do not. Authors
are strongly encouraged to submit papers 48 hours before the
submission deadline so that unprinting formats can be detected and
corrected by the submission deadline. If for some reason an author is not
able to submit electronically, or if we have discovered in advance that

limited to, investigations of the logical theory underlying linguistic
formalisms; alternative approaches to the semantics of such formalisms;
applications of constraint logic programming to ``constraint-based''
linguistic formalisms; issues governing grammar engineering, scalability,
modularization, information encapsulation, etc; applications of inductive
logic programming methods to NLP; higher-order logic programming;
applications of functional programming to NLP; etc. However, all works
dealing with issues of natural language and logic programming are welcome.
Submission
Papers should be written in English and describe original, unpublished work.
They should emphasize completed rather than proposed work. The state of
completion of reported results should be clearly indicated. Papers must be
anonymous and refrain from self-reference. Accepted papers cannot be

Call for Papers: ESSLLI-2002 STUDENT SESSION
Trento, Italy
August 5-16 2002
Deadline: February 25th, 2002
http://www.iccs.informatics.ed.ac.uk/~malvi/esslli02
We are pleased to announce the Student Session of the 14th European
Summer School in Logic, Language and Information (ESSLLI-2002)
organised by the Centre for scientific and technological research
(ITC-irst) in Trento and by the University of Trento, under the
auspices of the European Association for Logic, Language and
Information (FoLLI). ESSLLI-2002 will be held in Trento from August
5-16 2002. We invite submission of papers for presentation at the
ESSLLI-2002 Student Session and for appearance in the proceedings.
REQUIREMENTS:
The Student Session papers should describe original, unpublished work,
completed or in progress that demonstrates insight, creativity, and promise.
No previously published papers should be submitted. Note that the ESSLLI02
school will be focussed on the three main
interdisciplinary areas (Logic & Language, Logic & Computation, and
Language & Computation), while the single areas have been
dropped. Given the high interest shown over the years, the Student
Session will keep two of the single areas, namely Logic and Language,
welcoming thus submissions within the following topics: Logic,
Language, Logic & Language, Logic & Computation, Language &
Computation.
FORMAT OF SUBMISSION:
Student authors should submit an anonymous full paper headed by the
paper title, not to exceed 7 pages of length exclusive of references
and send a separate identification page (see below). Note that the
length of the final version of the accepted papers will not be allowed to
exceed 10 pages. Since reviewing will be blind, the body of the abstract
should omit author names and addresses. Furthermore,
self-references that reveal the author's identity (e.g., "We
previously showed (Smith, 1991)... ") should be avoided. It is
possible to use instead references like "Smith (1991) previously
showed...". For any submission, a plain ASCII text version of the
identification page should be sent separately, using the following
format:
Title: title of the submission
First author: firstname lastname
Address: address of the first author
......
Last author: firstname lastname
Address: address of the last author
Short summary: abstract (5 lines)
Subject area (one of): Logic | Language | Logic and
Language | Logic and Computation | Language and Computation
If necessary, the program committee may reassign papers to a more
appropriate subject area. The submission of the extended abstract
should be in one of the following formats: PostScript, PDF, RTF, or
plain text. But note that, in case of acceptance, the final version of the
paper has to be submitted in LaTeX format. Please, use A4 size
pages, 11pt or 12pt fonts, and standard margins. Submissions outside
the specified length and formatting requirements may be subject to
rejection without review.
The paper and separate identification page must be sent by
e-mail to: malvi@cogsci.ed.ac.uk by FEBRUARY 25th 2002

Call for Papers: LINGUISTICS ASSOCIATION OF GREAT BRITAIN
Spring Meeting 2002: Edge Hill College of Higher Education
Edge Hill College, UK
9 - 11 April, 2002.
The local organisers are Patrick Honeybone (honeybop@edgehill.ac.uk) and
Kevin Watson (watsonk@edgehill.ac.uk).
The conference website will be at:
http://www.edgehill.ac.uk/acadepts/humarts/english/lagb.htm
You are invited to offer papers for the Meeting. The LAGB welcomes
submissions on any topic in the field of linguistics; papers are selected on
their (perceived) merits, and not according to their subject matter or
assumed theoretical framework.
How and when to submit an abstract
Abstracts must be submitted on paper (not by email or by fax). FIVE
anonymous copies of the abstract, plus ONE with name and affiliation, i.e.
CAMERA-READY, should be submitted, and should be sent in the format outlined
below to the President (address below). You must write your address for
correspondence (email or surface) on the BACK of the camera-ready copy.
(Even if several authors are named on the front, there should be only one
name and address for correspondence.)
Abstracts should be accompanied by an account of any special requirements
regarding audiovisual equipment (other than an OHP).
Papers for the programme are selected anonymously - only the President knows
the name of the authors. Where possible, authors should supply an email
address to which the committee's decision may be sent.
Abstracts must arrive by January 8. Abstracts may also be submitted now for
the meeting after the next one, but must be clearly marked as such. (In
general the abstract deadlines for the autumn and spring meetings are soon
after 1st June and 1st January respectively, so an abstract sent to reach
the President by that date will always be in time.)
Format of abstracts
Abstracts must be presented as follows: The complete abstract (i.e. the one
containing your title and your name) must be no longer than ONE A4 page
(21cm x 29.5cm) with margins of at least 2.5cm on all sides. You may use
single spacing but type must be no smaller than 12 point. If the paper is
accepted the abstract will be photocopied and inserted directly into the
collection of abstracts sent out to participants, so the presentation should
be clear and clean.
The following layout should be considered as standard:
(title) Optimality and the Klingon vowel shift (speaker) Clark Kent
(clark@astro.mars.ac.mars) (institution) Department of Astrology, Eastern
Mars University
The normal length for papers delivered at LAGB meetings is 25 minutes (plus
15 minutes discussion).
There is the possibility to submit abstracts for a themed session (or
panel), i.e. groups of speakers can ask for a whole 2-hour themed session,
and can apportion their time within that as they wish. All the abstracts
for such a session will be considered together.
The committee will plan the programme as soon as it has selected the
successful abstracts, so please indicate on the anonymous abstracts if you
cannot present your paper on either the second or third day of the
conference (6th or 7th April). It is very difficult to reschedule papers
after the programme has been planned.
Content of abstracts
The following guidelines may be useful:
+ You should clearly describe the paper's general topic. (The topic may be a
problem of theory or analysis or set of data which have not previously been
analysed.)
+ You should describe your treatment of the topic, and how it relates to
previous work on the same topic. (When referring to previous work, it is
enough to quote "Author (Date)" without giving full bibliographical
details.) It is not acceptable simply to promise a solution'.
+ You should explain how you will justify your treatment, and quote crucial
evidence - you must trust the committee (and other conference attenders) not
to steal your ideas before you have presented them. If you are taking a
stand on a controversial issue, summarise the arguments which lead you to
take up this position.
Conference Bursaries
Up to 10 bursaries are available for unsalaried members of the Association
(e.g. PhD students) with preference given to those who are presenting a
paper. Applications should be sent to the President, and must be received by
the deadline for abstracts. Please state on your application: (a) date of
joining the LAGB (applicants must have been a member at least since the date
of the previous meeting); (b) whether or not you are a student; (c) if a
student, whether you receive a normal grant; (d) if not a student, your
employment situation. STUDENTS WHO ARE SUBMITTING AN ABSTRACT and who wish
