CALL FOR PAPERS
 
E W N L G - 9 7
 
6th European Workshop on
Natural Language Generation
 
March 24 - 26, 1997
 
Gerhard-Mercator University, Duisburg, Germany
 
The workshop aims to bring together researchers interested in Natural
Language Generation from such different perspectives as Linguistics,
Artificial Intelligence, Psychology, Cognitive Science, and
Engineering.  The meeting continues the tradition of a series of
workshops held biannually in Europe (Royaumont, 1987; Edinburgh, 1989;
Judenstein, 1991; Pisa, 1993; and Leiden, 1995) but it is open to
researchers from all over the world.
 
Program Committee:
        Stephan Busemann, Saarbruecken
        Alison Cawsey, Edinburgh
        Robert Dale, Sydney
        Wolfgang Hoeppner, Duisburg (chair)
        Richard Kittredge, Montreal
        Stephan Mehl, Duisburg
        Koenrad deSmedt, Bergen
        Michael Zock, Paris
 
Papers, posters and demonstrations are invited on original and
substantial work related to the automatic generation of natural
language, including computational linguistics research, artificial
intelligence methods, computer models of human language processing,
empirical research, and the development and evaluation of applied
systems. Contributions on all aspects of natural language generation
are welcome, but the special theme of this workshop will be 'System
Architectures for Text Generation'.
 
This topic comprises a variety of more specific questions,
e.g. planning and/or schemata, pragmatic impact on content selection
and form determination, serial or incremental processing,
macro-planning and micro-planning.
 
To encourage a workshop atmosphere while allowing a relatively large
number of people to participate, selected papers will be given large
time slots including ample discussion time; other papers will be
grouped for shorter presentations and mutual interaction, and there
will be sessions for posters and computer demonstrations.
 
Submissions:
 
Researchers wishing to present a PAPER are requested to submit three
copies of an original unpublished article (10 pages). To allow for
anonymous reviewing the name(s) and complete adress(es) of the
author(s) have to be provided on a separate sheet. We would appreciate
that you additionally send an electronic version of the paper (email
or diskette).
 
Researchers wishing to present a POSTER are invited to submit three
copies of a reduced version of their poster on 4 normal pages that
together form an A2 size sheet. Use a normal character size. As with
papers any personal information about the author(s) should appear on a
separate sheet.
 
Researchers wishing to demonstrate a computer PROGRAM are invited to
send three copies of a short description of their program together
with some examples of input and output and hardware
requirements. Please include the name(s) and complete address(es) of
the author(s) in the description.

The meeting will be held from the morning of Monday March 24, 1997
through afternoon on Wednesday 26, in 'Die Wolfsburg' situated in the
municipal forest of Duisburg. This conference site congresses and
workshops from all scientific areas and is equipped with excellent
presentation facilities and modern guest rooms.
 
The cost of the workshop to each participant is currently estimated at
about DM 500 including accommodation and meals, but the participants'
fee may turn out to be lower depending on funding. The workshop will
also be open to a limited number of participants not contributing a
paper, poster or demo. A call for participation including more
information and a registration form will be sent out later as soon as
the program has been put together.
