************************** * CALL FOR ABSTRACTS * ************************** CONSTRAINT BASED FORMALISMS AND GRAMMAR WRITING Barcelona Aug. 21-25, 1995 on the European Summer School in Logic, Language and Information (ESSLLI95) (for the ESSLLI95 program and registration info see: http://ftp.fwi.uva.nl/pub/theory/illc/folli/esslli95.txt) _______________________________________________________________________ This workshop aims at allowing young researchers working on grammar implementations using modern constraint-based (or typed feature-based) formalisms to present and discuss their work. Major focus should lie in uncovering how coding is influenced or what benefits are gained by the particular choice of formalism. We plan to devote two of the five 90 minute sessions to introducing the relevant (and most commonly used) formalisms. Contributed talks are expected to last around 30 minutes allowing further 15 minutes for discussion. If you intend to contribute, send a 3-6 page abstract by 1 May to one of us (see 'Organizers' below), preferrably by e-mail. Notice that this is a regular ESSLLI95 event and registration to ESSLLI95 is required. _______________________________________________________________________ Important dates: Submission deadline: May 1st Notification of acceptance: May 5th Draft paper to be included in Workshop material due: May 31st _______________________________________________________________________ Organizers: Jochen Doerre and Suresh Manandhar IMS, Univ. of Stuttgart HCRC, Univ. of Edinburgh Azenbergstr. 12 2 Buccleuch Place D-70174 Stuttgart Edinburgh EH8 9LW GERMANY U.K. email: Jochen.DoerreMail to author|Respond to list|Read more issues|LINGUIST home page|Top of issueims.uni-stuttgart.de Suresh.Manandhar
