*FIRST CALL FOR PAPERS*

STIL 2013 - The 9th Brazilian Symposium in Information and Human Language
Technology

Fortaleza/Ceará, October 21-23, 2013

STIL is the bi-annual Language Technology event supported by the Brazilian
Computer Society (SBC - http://www.sbc.org.br) and by the Brazilian Special
Interest Group on Natural Language Processing (CE-PLN -
http://www.nilc.icmc.usp.br/cepln/).

In 2013, it will be held in conjunction with both BRACIS 2013 (Brazilian
Conference on Intelligent Systems), the combination of the Brazilian
Symposium on Artificial Intelligence (SBIA) and the Brazilian Symposium on

Artificial e Computacional*).

STIL will have the following collocated events: III Workshop on Portuguese
Description, III Student Workshop on Information and Human Language
Technology (TILic) and IV Workshop *RST and the Lexical Studies*.

The conference has a multidisciplinary nature and covers a broad spectrum
of disciplines related to Human Language Technology, such as Linguistics,
Computer Science, Psycholinguistics, Information Science, among others. It
aims at bringing together both academic and industrial participants working
on those areas.

We accept submissions of long and short papers. Long papers should describe
complete work with significant results. Short papers can report work in
progress, negative results, position papers, application papers.

Long papers may have up to eight (8) pages of content (including tables and
pictures), with two (2) additional pages of references, and will be

** Reviewing Process*

All submitted papers will be reviewed by at least two experts in the field.

The reviewing will be double blind and therefore papers should not display
any information regarding their authorship in the header or body of the
text. Self-references that reveal the author's identity, e.g., "As we
previously showed (Silva, 2005)...", must be avoided. Instead, authors such
use "Silva previously showed (Silva, 2005) ...".

All accepted papers (long and short) will be published in the online
conference proceedings available  at the STIL website (soon available),
under an ISBN reference. Authors of best selected papers will be invited to
submit extended versions to one of the following:

http://www.springer.com/computer/journal/13173) and

- a specialized journal of Artificial Intelligence and Natural Language
Processing (TBA)

**Submission Policy*

By submitting papers to STIL 2013, the authors agree that in case of
acceptance at least one author  registers to the conference and presents
the paper. Furthermore, it is the conference policy that at least one of
