HELLENIC LANGUAGE TECHNOLOGY LIST (HLTL)

The Hellenic Artificial Intelligence Society announces the
operation of the Hellenic Language Technology List (HLTL).
HLTL is an automated e-mailing list intended to contribute
to the further growth of the following fields in Greece:

- computational linguistics
- natural language processing
- speech processing
- language technology

and to contribute to the development of theories and
techniques for the Greek language in the above fields. Job
announcements related to the above are particularly
encouraged.

HLTL is a service of the Hellenic Artificial Intelligence
Society (EETN, see http://www.iit.demokritos.gr/skel/eetn),
and is supervised by the following EETN members (listed
alphabetically):

- Ion Androutsopoulos, NCSR "Demokritos" (coordinator,
 ionandriit.demokritos.gr)
- Nikos Fakotakis, University of Patras
 (fakotakiwcl.ee.upatras.gr)
- Stelios Piperidis, Institute for Language and Speech
 Processing (spipilsp.gr)
- George Vouros, University of the Aegean
 (georgevaegean.gr).
