Meeting Description:
12th Conference of the Pacific Association for Computational Linguistics July 19th - July 21st 2011 International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM), Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia http://kict.iium.edu.my/pacling/ PACLING 2011 will be a high-quality, workshop-style conference whose aim is to promote friendly scientific interaction relating to computational linguistics among Pacific Rim countries. The emphasis of the conference is on interdisciplinary scientific exchange demonstrating openness towards original, fresh, and/or useful research including those which might sometimes fall outside current dominant schools of thought, and on technological transfer within and across the Pacific region. The conference represents a unique forum for scientific and technological exchange, being smaller than ACL and COLING, and more regional with extensive representation from the Pacific.

such can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered
501(c) Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These

EMU Foundation fills in and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple
administrative procedure that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without
costing you an extra penny. Please take a moment to check if your company
operates such a program.
