27-29, 1996 (co-organizers: Ur Shlonsky, Universiti de Genhve;
Jean Lowenstamm, Universiti de Paris 7 et 2LC). The aim of the
Conference is to promote research in theoretical linguistics in
relation to Afroasiatic languages. The editorial committee hopes to

presentations at the colloquium, a sequel to the volume entitled
'Studies in Afro-Asiatic Grammar', currently in preparation.
Abstracts are invited for thirty minutes talks in all areas of syntax,
morphology and phonology. Abstracts should be no less than one page
and may not exceed two pages. Send three anonymous copies of the
abstracts and one copy with the name of author(s) and
institution(s). Include a card containing the following information:
name of author(s), title of the paper, address and affiliation, phone
number, fax and e-mail address (if available).
Abstracts must be received by February 1, 1996. E-mail or Fax

WORKSHOP
The Text Encoding Initiative Guidelines
Application to Building Digitial Libraries
***************
Held in conjunction with
Digital Libraries'96
First ACM International Conference On Digital Libraries
***************
The Text Encoding Initiative's (TEI) Guidelines for Electronic Text
Encoding and Interchange provide an extensive SGML-based scheme for
encoding electronic texts across a wide spectrum of text types and
suitable for any kind of application. Released in spring of 1994, the
Guidelines have already achieved wide-scale implementation in projects
throughout North America and Europe. This workshop is intended to
provide a forum for technical discussion and evaluation of the TEI
Guidelines, as they have so far been implemented in real applications,
particularly those which have relevance for building digital
libraries.
This call solicits papers for a one-day workshop, to be held in
conjunction with Digital Libraries '96. The program will consist of
several paper presentations together with substantial time for
discussion.
Topics include but are not limited to:
- reports on the use of the TEI scheme for a particular application,
with a focus on evaluation of the scheme to serve application needs
- technical discussion of particular encoding problems and (TEI or
non-TEI) solutions, for example, handling unusual or complex text
types, multi-media, multiple views or information types, multi-lingual
data, etc.
- customization and extension of the TEI for particular applications
and text types, including proposals for use in the building of digital
libraries
- assessment, evaluation of the TEI DTD architecture, especially as it
serves the needs of building digital libraries
- technical and practical consideration for the design of tools to
handle documents encoded using the TEI or SGML generally
We also invite participation in the workshop by those who may not
present a paper, but who wish to be involved in discussion.
