 FIRST CALL FOR PAPERS

 The 4th International Conference on
 Discourse Anaphora and Anaphor Resolution
 (DAARC2002)

 University of Lisbon, Faculty of Sciences
 September 18 - 20, 2002


 Organisers: Antonio Branco, Tony McEnery and Ruslan Mitkov

Following the success of the previous international colloquia
on Discourse Anaphora and Anaphor Resolution at Lancaster
in 1996, 1998 and 2000, the next colloquium in the series will
take place in Lisbon in 2002.

DAARC2002 aims to continue the trend set by the previous DAARC
events, which brought together a wide variety of research on
discourse anaphora and anaphor resolution. Our goal will be
to review this diverse field and consider the results obtained
in recent years.

The DAARC2002 colloquium will take place on the 18-20th September
2002 in Lisbon, Portugal. We would like to invite anyone currently
researching in the areas of discourse anaphora and anaphor
resolution, from any methodological perspective or framework,
to submit a paper for DAARC2002. The closing date for submission
is 1/4/02. Notification of acceptance will be sent by 13/5/02.
Selected papers are expected by 15/6/02 to be included in the
proceedings.
