                 IEEE ICDM 2001: Call for Tutorials
                 **********************************

The 2001 IEEE International Conference  on Data Mining (ICDM '01) will
include tutorials  providing in-depth background  on specific subjects
in data mining.  The recency of the data mining field, and the variety
of disciplines  that are represented,  lead to many  possibilities for
good tutorials:

   * Short  courses  on  areas  of  machine  learning,  databases,  or
     statistics  that  may  be   "old  hat"  to  specialists  in  that
     discipline,  but  are  new   to  a  majority  of  the  conference
     attendees. (e.g., An Introduction to Hidden Markov Models).
   * Surveys   of  new   and   developing  research   areas  in   data
     mining. (e.g., Text Mining).
   * End-to-end  descriptions  of the  practical  application of  data
     mining technology (i.e., applications that may be "typical" for a
     paper, but  provide an example of  issues faced in  a data mining
     project that would generalize to problems faced by the conference
     attendees).
   * An in-depth coverage of a past research breakthrough  that is now
     becoming a mature technology.

The topics of interest  fall within those described  in the conference
Call for Papers (http://kais.mines.edu/~xwu/icdm/icdm-01.html).

Submission Details
==================

The tutorial proposal should include the following:

  1. Title and abstract of the tutorial;
  2. Intended audience. Include prerequisite knowledge required of the
     attendees, and  the expected areas  of interest. (For  example, a
     tutorial  on statistics  for  people applying  data mining  tools
     vs.  a tutorial  on statistics  for people  building  data mining
     tools);
  3. Length of time needed (e.g., half day or full day); and
  4. Short biographies of the presenters.

Tutorial materials such  as handouts and slides should  be included if
available,  but are  not required  for submission.  However, providing
such materials will show depth  and maturity of the tutorial, and will
be a strong factor in the selection process.

Please   send  a   soft   copy   (preferred)  of   your  proposal   to
clifton at computer.org, or a hard copy to:

UNIVERSIDADE DE SANTIAGO DE COMPOSTELA

DEPARTAMENTO DE FILOLOX=CDA INGLESA
 II  INTERNATIONAL CONTRASTIVE  LINGUISTICS CONFERENCE (ICLCII)

Contrasts across/within languages

(25 HOURS)
SANTIAGO DE COMPOSTELA,  25th to 27th OCTOBER 2001

Second Circular. April 2001
 PROGRAMME

The organisers of this symposium, which will consist of plenary
lectures, papers, seminars and round tables, seek to offer an open forum
in which recent studies and projects in the field of Contrastive
Linguistics may be presented and debated.  The Conference will be
divided into three sections:

1.)   Cross-cultural communication. We hope to cater for contributions
relating to cultural intercommunication and to processes of
sociocultural and linguistic exchange.

2.)   The second section will be devoted to topics related to
Contrastive Linguistic Description (Grammar, Lexico-Semantics, Phonetics
and Phonology).

3.)   Finally, in the third section, we shall analyse the processes of
intercommunication through Discourse Analysis, Pragmatics, Rhetoric,
Translation Studies, Languages for Specific Purposes, and Second
Language Acquisition.

INVITED SPEAKERS
The following have agreed to give plenary lectures:

John Sinclair (University of Birmingham)

Cristopher Butler (University of Swansea)

Gregory Myers (University of Lancaster)

Pablo Dom=EDnguez (University of La Laguna)

Antonio Garnica Silva (University of Sevilla)

Felix Rodr=EDguez Gonz=E1lez (University of Alicante)

M=AA de los =C1ngeles G=F3mez Gonz=E1lez (University of Santiago)

Eduardo Varela Bravo (University of Vigo)

PAPERS, SEMINARS AND ROUND TABLES
We accept proposals for papers, seminars and round tables that conform
to the guidelines given in the first circular
(http://usc.es/ia303/benvidag.htm), until 15th MAY 2001. On 20th MAY we
shall send confirmation of acceptance of the proposals presented

PROCEEDINGS
We plan to publish the proceedings of the conference. For this purpose,
participants should let us have an original version of their work,
before 30th December 2001 and in Word formats.

CONFERENCE FEES
The fee will be 10,000 pesetas (5,000 pesetas for students (copy of
student i.d. required)). If it should become necessary, an extra 2,000
pesetas may be charged for a copy of the Proceedings. This amount would
not be required until the Proceedings are published.

(We are trying to secure the convalidation of the 25 hours, to count as
one credit in the 1st or 2nd cycle of the philology degree courses.)

The maximum number of participants will be 200.
