linc.cis.upenn.edu>FORMAL GRAMMAR CONFERENCE August 7-8, 1999, Utrecht, The Netherlands SECOND CALL FOR PAPERS FG99 is the 5th conference on Formal Grammar held in conjunction with the European Summer School in Logic, Language and Information, which takes place in 1999 in Utrecht. Previous meetings were held in Barcelona (1995), Prague (1996), Aix-en-Provence (1997), and as part of the Joint Conference on Formal Grammar, Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar, and Categorial Grammar (FHCG98) held in Saarbruecken last August. AIMS and SCOPE FG99 provides a forum for the presentation of new and original research on formal grammar, especially with regard to the application of formal methods to natural language analysis. Themes of interest include, but are not limited to, * formal and computational syntax, semantics, pragmatics, and phonology; * model-theoretic and proof-theoretic methods in linguistics; * constraint-based and resource-sensitive approaches to grammar; * foundational, methodological and architectural issues in grammar. Previous conferences in this series have welcomed papers from a wide variety of frameworks. SPECIAL SESSIONS and INVITED SPEAKERS. There will be a SYMPOSIUM on Grammatical Resources and Grammatical Inference David Dowty (Ohio State) Polly Jacobson (Brown) Gerhard Jaeger (Berlin) Reinhard Muskens (Tilburg) Mark Steedman (Edinburgh) commentator: Johan van Benthem (Amsterdam) [tentative] SUBMISSION DETAILS We invite E-MAIL submissions of abstracts for 30-minute papers (including questions, comments, and discussion). A submission should consist of two parts: - an information sheet (in ascii), containing the name of the author(s), affiliation(s), e-mail and postal address(es) and a title; - an abstract, consisting of a description of not more than 5 pages (including figures and references). Abstracts may be either in plain ASCII or in (unix-compatible encoded) postscript, PDF, or DVI.

The biennial MOL meetings are a workshop-style forum for presenting work relating to mathematical linguistics. SUBMISSIONS Submissions are invited from all areas of study that deal with the mathematical properties of natural language. These areas include, but are not limited to, mathematical models of phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics and pragmatics; mathematical properties of linguistic frameworks/theories and models of natural language processing and generation; mathematical models of language acquisition and change; parsing theory; and statistical and quantitative models of language. Submissions should give enough motivation to attract the interest of the audience and enough details to attract people who follow the area of the paper. SUBMISSION FORMAT Submissions should be no longer than 5000 words in length (about 10 pages, 11pt, excluding references). Papers must include an abstract (200 words. max). All contributions to MOL6 are to be made electronically as an uncompressed mime-encoded postscript attachment.
