<br>
HEADLEX16 welcomes work within the formal architectures of Lexical-Functional Grammar<br>
(LFG) and Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar (HPSG), as well as typological, formal, and<br>
computational work within the spirit of these theories. <br>
<br>
The conference aims to promote interaction and collaboration among researchers interested<br>
in HPSG and LFG. There will be no separate sessions for the different frameworks, but<br>
sessions will be organized thematically. We especially encourage papers that are<br>
accessible and relevant to members of both communities. <br>
<br>
The programme will include two special thematic workshops: one on ``Grammatical Functions<br>
and their Representation'' at the beginning of the conference, the other on ``Development<br>
and Computational Processing of Linguistically Motivated Grammars'' at the end of the<br>
conference. If you intend to submit to one of the workshops, please indicate this on the<br>
submission form. Further details about these workshops will be published in due course.<br>
<br>
SUBMISSIONS: TALKS AND POSTERS<br>
<br>
The main conference sessions will involve 45-minute talks (30 min + 15 min discussion),<br>
and poster presentations. Contributions can focus on results from completed as well as<br>
ongoing research, with an emphasis on novel approaches, methods, ideas, and perspectives,<br>
whether descriptive, theoretical, formal or computational. Presentations should describe<br>
original, unpublished work. <br>
<br>
TIMETABLE<br>
<br>
Deadline for abstracts: 15 February 2016, 23:59 GMT <br>
Notification of acceptance: 30 March 2016<br>
Conference: 25 July -29 July 2016<br>
<br>
<br>
SUBMISSION SPECIFICATIONS<br>
<br>
The language of the conference is English, and all abstracts must be written in English.
<br>
<br>
All abstracts should be submitted using the online submission system. Submissions should<br>
be in the form of abstracts only. Abstracts can be up to three A4 pages, plus up to two<br>
pages for references and figures, in 10pt or larger type and should include a title. Omit<br>
name and affiliation (including PDF document properties), and avoid obvious<br>
self-reference. <br>
<br>
Please submit your abstract in .pdf format (or a plain text file). If you have any trouble<br>
converting your file into .pdf please contact the Program Committee at the address<br>
below. (On the Easychair submission system, if you upload your abstract as a .pdf file,<br>
please simply type 'abstract attached' in the abstract box.) <br>
<br>
The number of submissions is not restricted. However, in the interests of high<br>
participation and broad representation, each author should be involved in a maximum of two<br>
oral papers and can only be a single author of one. There are no restrictions on poster<br>
presentations. Authors may want to keep this in mind when stating their preferences<br>
concerning the mode of presentation of their submissions. <br>
<br>
All abstracts will be reviewed anonymously by at least three referees, representing both<br>
frameworks. Papers accepted to the conference can be submitted to the refereed<br>
proceedings, which will be published online by CSLI Publications. See<br>
<a href="http://web.stanford.edu/group/cslipublications/cslipublications/HPSG/" target="_blank">http://web.stanford.edu/group/cslipublications/cslipublications/HPSG/</a> and<br>
<a href="http://web.stanford.edu/group/cslipublications/cslipublications/LFG/" target="_blank">http://web.stanford.edu/group/cslipublications/cslipublications/LFG/</a> for recent<br>
proceedings of HPSG and LFG conferences. <br>
<br>
SOCIAL PROGRAMME:<br>
<br>
The conference will be preceded by an excursion on 24 July. Details will be announced<br>
nearer the time.<br>
