Participants of either of the two workshops are invited to this joint
workshop. Below are the tentative timetables of the two separate
workshops and the joint workshop.

Workshop on Information Retrieval:
Natural language processing has long been expected to be a key for
building more sophisticated and more user-friendly information
retrieval system. So far, however, the vision for the future main
stream contribution of NLP to IR is not so clear. This workshop
will offer an international forum for discussing this subject to
stimulate interchage of various ideas and state-of-the-art research
results in order to looking for a little bit clearer image of
future interaction of NLP and IR.
