**** CONFERENCE ANNOUNCEMENT AND CALL FOR PAPERS ****
FIRST INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON LANGUAGE RESOURCES AND EVALUATION
GRANADA, SPAIN, 28-30 MAY 1998
The First International Conference on Language Resources and Evaluation has
been initiated by ELRA and is organized in co-operation with other
Associations and Consortia in Granada, Spain on 28-30 May 1998. In the
framework of the Information Society, the pervasive character of language
technologies and their relevance to practically all the fields of
Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) has been widely recognized.
Particularly relevant are the following two issues: the availability of
language resources and the methods for the evaluation of resources,
technologies and products. Substantial mutual benefits can be expected from
addressing these issues through international co-operation. The topics of
the conference will therefore be; Issues in the design, construction and use
of Languages Resources (theoretical & best practice); Issues in Human
Language Technologies evaluation ; General issues regarding international
activities and projects.
Please note that the deadline for submissions of proposals for papers,
posters, referenced demos, panels and workshops is 1 December 1997.
