- ----------------------- CALL FOR PAPERS --------------------------
ICEIS-2001
3rd International Conference on Enterprise Information Systems
Setubal, PORTUGAL
July 7-10, 2001
http://www.iceis.org and http://www.est.ips.pt/iceis
Organised by the School of Technology of Setubal, Portugal. With the
collaboration of AAAI and IEEE (ComSoc and EnNet TC).
SCOPE
The purpose of this 3rd International Conference on Enterprise
Information Systems (ICEIS) is to bring together researchers, engineers
and practitioners interested in the advances and business applications
of information systems. Four simultaneous tracks will be held, covering
different aspects of Enterprise Information Systems Applications,
including Enterprise Database Technology, Systems Integration,
Artificial Intelligence, Decision Support Systems, Information Systems
Analysis and Specification, Internet Computing and Electronic Commerce.
ICEIS focuses on real world applications; therefore authors should
highlight the benefits of Information Technology for industry and
services. Ideas on how to solve business problems, using IT, will arise
from the conference. Papers describing advanced prototypes, systems,
tools and techniques and general survey papers indicating future
directions are also encouraged. Papers describing original work are
invited in any of the areas listed below. Accepted papers, presented at
the conference by one of the authors, will be published in the
Proceedings of ICEIS. Acceptance will be based on quality, relevance and
originality. Both full research reports and work-in-progress reports are
welcome. There will be both oral and poster sessions.
Special sessions, dedicated to case-studies and commercial
presentations, as well as tutorials dedicated to technical/scientific
topics are also envisaged: companies interested in presenting their
products/methodologies or researchers interested in holding a tutorial
are invited to contact the conference secretariat.

Subject: Less Commonly Taught Languages (NCOLCTL 2001) - CORRECTION
With apologies...please note that the deadline for abstracts is THIS
December, 2000 for next April's conference.
FINAL CALL FOR PROPOSALS
National Council of Organizations of Less Commonly Taught Languages
Fourth Annual Conference
Washington, D.C.
April 6-8, 2001
Research and Development in the Less Commonly Taught Languages.
The Fourth Annual Conference of the National Council of Organizations
of Less Commonly Taught Languages (NCOLCTL) is scheduled for
metropolitan Washington, D.C. on April 6-8, 2001. The first day of the
conference (April 6) will be held at the Foreign Service Institute in
Arlington, Virginia.
Proposals are solicited for individual papers, colloquia and poster
sessions. The formats are described below. Each proposed presentation
should address issues that clearly relate to more than just one
particular language and should fall within one or more of the
Conference theme of "Research and Development in the Less Commonly
Taught Languages." Sessions might include:
* Discussion of important research questions for the LCTLs;
* Application of other research to important questions for the LCTLs;
* Reports on empirical, ethnographic, linguistic, and/or classroom
research;
* Initiatives to develop programs in the LCTs for any customer
base, including distance learning and heritage communities;
* Inservice and/or pre-service teacher development initiatives;
* Use of technology in instructional programs;
* Innovative instructional materials or learning activities for an
LCTL; and
* Other topics related to the theme
Individual papers are 20 minutes long. A paper should focus clearly on
one or more issues related to the real world needs for language
expertise in the less commonly taught languages. Papers may be based
on research or practical experience.
Colloquia are 90 minutes. A colloquium proposal should specify three
or more presenters who will address one of the conference themes.
Preference will be given to panels that cut across different languages
or language groups.
Poster and presentation sessions may focus on completed work or work
in progress related to the teaching and/or learning of less commonly
taught languages. They may be of either the traditional poster format
(most often used for research-based presentations) or demonstrations
of instructional or information technology; however, any proposal
requiring technical support must specify the type of hardware and
software needed in as much detail as possible.
Proposals should indicate the relevant conference theme and kind of
presentation (paper, colloquium or poster session) in the upper
left-hand corner, and the name of the presenter and the presenter's
primary language(s) in the upper right-hand corner. The proposed title
should not exceed ten words. Proposals may not exceed one page in
length.
All proposals for the NCOLCTL Conference should be sent to the
following
address by hard copy or email:
Frederick H. Jackson
