Dear Sir/ Madam,
The seventh Machine Translation Summit will be held at Kent Ridge
Digital Labs on the campus of National University of Singapore from 13
to 17 September 1999. We look forward to the participation of those
who are interested in any aspect of machine translation. We are
pleased to inform you of the 2nd Call for Papers and the Call for
Paper Supplement,Call for Paper Supplement-2, which are additional
informations of the 2nd Call for Papers.
Because of the nature of MT Summit as a forum of MT researchers,
users, industrialists and funding agencies, we welcome papers, not
only on technical/theoretical issues of MT, but also on
[1] users' experiences
[2] innovative uses of MT in commercial products
[3] evaluation of actual MT systems
[4] proposal of practical uses of MT systems like controlled languages
[5] users' interactions,
etc.
It would be of great help if you could kindly inform to relevant
institutions and individuals who may be interested in submitting
papers to the conference.
Also, for further information of the MT Summit VII, please see Web-site:

conference of the 20th century in the premier series of conferences on
machine translation, will provide a forum for discussing the prospect
of MT and related areas in the coming century. MT Summit VII will
feature an expanded program including research papers, reports on
users' experiences, discussions of policy issues, invited talks,
panels, exhibitions, tutorials, and workshops. AAMT invites all who
