GLiP-3 GENERATIVE LINGUISTICS IN POLAND 3 (Morpho)phonological meeting DATES: 7-8 April, 2001 LOCATION: Warszawa (Warsaw) Sponsored by the Institute of English Studies, University of Warsaw INVITED SPEAKERS: - -------------- Jerzy RUBACH University of Warsaw / University of Iowa Tobias SCHEER University of Nice 3rd Call for Papers ------------------- The primary aim of GLiP meetings is to bring together (i) Polish generative linguists, (ii) generative linguists working in Poland, as well as (iii) generative linguists working on Polish. We invite abstracts on any aspect of generative phonology and morphophonology in any generative approach (Government Phonology, Lexical Phonology, Optimality Theory). Talks will be organized around major phonological topics, depending on the content of the submissions. The format of the conference is 20 min for presentation + 10 min question time. Languages of the conference are English and Polish. GLiP-3 is the first meeting in this conference series devoted to phonology and morphophonology, the previous meetings being primarily syntactic in nature. GLiP-3 marks the beginning of what we intend to become a rule: (morpho)syntactic meetings in the autumn and (morpho)phonological meetings in the spring. We are planning to publish a volume of conference proceedings (see our web pages for information on the proceedings of the previous meetings.)

CONFERENCE FEES: - ------------- - Regular: 80 PLN - Student: 40 PLN DATES: - --- - DEADLINE for receipt of abstracts: 11 February 2001 - Notification of acceptance: 5 March 2001 - Meeting: 7-8 April 2001 ABSTRACTS: - ------- Should be *anonymous* (i.e., they should contain no personal data or explicit self-references) and consist of up to 700 words, together with examples and references. Because abstract forwarding to referees will be done by e-mail exclusively, the following are the possible formats of attachments, in *descending* order of preference: (Plain Text) > Postscript > PDF > (La)TeX > Word for Windows '97 In cases when there is no need to use special phonetic symbols or phonological representations/rules, we strongly encourage PLAIN TEXT submissions. We regret to say that other formats will not be accepted. Should the electronic version of the abstract need special phonetic fonts apart from the SIL IPA fonts http://www.sil.org/ , please attach them as well. (We strongly discourage this practice though, and reserve the right to ask for a resubmission in a different format.) Those who submit abstracts in (*self-contained*!) (La)TeX should best use the tipa.sty package. See http://venus.ci.uw.edu.pl/~glip/links/ for pointers to the sites which offer this package for download. Only one submission per person and one joint submission will be considered. Abstracts should be written in English or Polish. Please note: do NOT send abstracts on diskettes. We will accept *e-mail* submissions *exclusively*. IMPORTANT: In the plain text part of your email, please supply the following information: - name, title, - title of the paper, - affiliation, - email address, - snail mail address.

Call for Papers BISFAI-01 June 25-27, 2001, Israel Seventh Bar-Ilan International Symposium on the Foundations of Artificial Intelligence HONORING: Yaacov Choueka The seventh biennial Bar-Ilan International Symposium on the Foundations of Artificial Intelligence, will be held on June 25-27, 2001 in Ramat Gan, Israel. The meeting will honor the research and accomplishments of Yaacov Choueka and will therefore place special emphasis on natural language processing and computational linguistics. Invited Speakers: Yaacov Choueka Jieh Hsiang Daphne Koller Richard Korf Doug Lenat Moshe Vardi We solicit papers on substantial research in all areas of Artificial Intelligence, including, but not limited to the following: foundations natural language processing searching knowledge representation automated reasoning computational linguistics planning information retrieval machine learning temporal reasoning robotics knowledge-based systems data mining AI algorithms intelligent agents probabilistic reasoning Updates to this announcement and links to the previous symposia can be found at the BISFAI website: www.cs.biu.ac.il/~bisfai Submission Guidelines: Extended abstracts should be 6-12 pages in length, including references and figures. Submissions should be made electronically, as attachments in Postscript or PDF format. Click at the website to submit. The official proceedings will be web-based and made available at the BISFAI website. System Demonstrations: We also solicit proposals for demonstrations of innovative applications of artificialintelligence, of length 1-2 pages. Click at the website to submit. Special Issue: Selected papers will be reviewed for journal publication in Annals of Mathematics and Artificial Intelligence. Multiple Submissions: Papers may be submitted to BISFAI even if submitted to other conferences or journals, because the BISFAI website is not archival. Of course, if a paper is accepted at an archival conference such as AAAI or IJCAI and also presented at BISFAI, this paper must be substantially revised and/or extended for consideration for journal publication. Previously presented or published papers are unacceptable. The BISFAI-01 program and schedule will be available online. Abstracts of invited and accepted papers will be made available on the abstracts page, with pointers to online versions of the paper, when available at the BISFAI website: www.cs.biu.ac.il/~bisfai Important Dates: March 2, 2001 Paper submission deadline April 22, 2001 Notification of acceptance May 25, 2001 Revised versions due June 25-27, 2001 BISFAI conference Symposium Committee: Symposium co-Chairs: Martin C.
