<br>For the past 23 years, the European Summer School in Logic, Language
and Information (ESSLLI) has been organized every year by the
Association for Logic, Language and Information (FoLLI) in different
sites around Europe. The main focus of ESSLLI is on the interface
between linguistics, logic and computation.
<br>
<br>ESSLLI offers foundational, introductory and advanced courses, as
well as workshops, covering a wide variety of topics within the three
areas of interest: Language and Computation, Language and Logic, and
Logic and Computation. Previous summer schools have been highly
successful, attracting up to 500 students from Europe and elsewhere. The
school has developed into an important meeting place and forum for
discussion for students and researchers interested in the
interdisciplinary study of Logic, Language and Information. During two
weeks, around 50 courses and 10 workshops are offered to the attendants,
each of 1.5 hours per day during a five days week, with up to seven
parallel sessions. ESSLLI also includes a student session (papers and
posters by students only, 1.5 hour per day during the two weeks) and
four evening lectures by senior scientists in the covered areas.
<br>
<br>In 2011, ESSLLI will held in Ljubljana, Slovenia and will be
organized by the Slovenian Language Technologies Society (SDJT), the
Jožef Stefan Institute (IJS) and The Faculty of Mathematics and Physics
(FMF) in Ljubljana, Slovenia. Chair of the Program Committee is Makoto
Kanazawa (National Institute of Informatics, Japan), and Chair of the
Organizing Committee is Darja Fišer (The University of Ljubljana,
Slovenia). To contact the ESSLLI 2011 Organizing Committee, write to: <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:esslli2011@gmail.com">esslli2011@gmail.com</a>.
