Full Title: ACL/EACL/NAACL Workshops Date: 30-Mar-2009 - 31-Mar-2009 Location: Singapore/Athens/Boulder, USA Contact Person: Miriam Butt Meeting Email: miriam.butt uni-konstanz.de Linguistic Field(s): Computational Linguistics Call Deadline: 01-Sep-2008 Meeting Description: The Association for Computational Linguistics invites proposals for workshops to be held in conjunction with one of the three flagship conferences sponsored in 2009 by the Association for Computational Linguistics: ACL-IJCNLP 2009, EACL 2009, and NAACL HLT 2009. We solicit proposals on any topic of interest to the ACL community. Second Call for Workshop Proposals EACL 2009, NAACL HLT 2009, and ACL-IJCNLP 2009 Workshops will be held at one of the following conference venues: EACL 2009 is the annual meeting of the European chapter of the ACL. The conference will be held in Athens, Greece, March 30-April 3 2009; workshops March 30-31. NAACL HLT 2009 is the annual meeting of the North American chapter of the ACL. It continues the inclusive tradition of encompassing relevant work from the natural language processing, speech and information retrieval communities. The conference will be held in Boulder, Colorado, USA, from May 31-June 5 2009; workshops will be held June 4-5. ACL-IJCNLP 2009 combines the 47th Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics (ACL 2009) with the 4th International Joint Conference on Natural Language Processing (IJCNLP). The conference will be held in Singapore, August 2-7 2009; workshops will be held August 6-7. Submission Information: In a departure from previous years, ACL-IJCNLP, EACL and NAACL HLT will coordinate the submission and reviewing of workshop proposals for all three ACL 2009 conferences. Proposals for workshops should contain: - A title and brief (2-page max) description of the workshop topic and content. - The desired workshop length (one or two days), and an estimate of the audience size. - The names, postal addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses of the organizers, with one-paragraph statements of their research interests and areas of expertise. - A budget. - A list of potential members of the program committee, with an indication of which members have already agreed. - A description of any shared tasks associated with the workshop. - A description of special requirements for technical needs. - A venue preference specification. The venue preference specification should list the venues at which the organizers would be willing to present the workshop (EACL, NAACL HLT, or ACL-IJCNLP). A proposal may specify one, two, or three acceptable workshop venues; if more than one venue is acceptable, the venues should be preference-ordered. There will be a single workshop committee, coordinated by the three sets of workshop chairs. This single committee will review the quality of the workshop proposals. Once the reviews are complete, the workshop chairs will work together to assign workshops to each of the three conferences, taking into account the location preferences given by the proposers. The ACL has a set of policies on workshops. You can find general information on policies regarding attendance, publication, financing, and sponsorship, as well as on financial support of SIG workshops, at the following URL: http://www.cis.udel.edu/~carberry/ACL/index-policies.html Please submit proposals by electronic mail no later than September 1 2008, to acl09-workshops at acl09-workshops uni-konstanz.de with the subject line: ''ACL 2009 Workshop Proposal.'' Practical Arrangements: Notification of acceptance of workshop proposals will occur no later than September 23, 2008. Since the three ACL conferences will occur at different times, the timescales for the submission and reviewing of workshop papers, and the preparation of camera-ready copies, will be different for the three conferences. Suggested timescales for each of the conferences are given below.
