     Note: The exact dates of the Workshop have not been firmly
     established yet. Tentatively, the Workshop may take place
     anytime between July 6 - 11, 2002


    1. General Invitation for Submissions

   The Student Research Workshop is an established tradition at ACL
   conferences. The main purpose of the workshop is to provide a forum
   for student researchers who are investigating various areas related
   to Computational Linguistics and Natural Language Processing.
   Participants will have the opportunity to get feedback both from a
   wide audience in general and from selected panelists, experienced
   researchers who prepare in-depth comments and questions in advance
   of the presentation.

   We would like to invite student researchers to submit their work to
   the workshop.  As the main mission of the workshop is to provide
   feedback, the emphasis will be on work in progress. Original and
   unpublished research is invited on all aspects of computational
   linguistics, including, but not limited to these topic areas:

          pragmatics
          discourse
          semantics
          syntax
          lexicon
          phonetics and phonology
          morphology
          linguistic, mathematical and psychological models of language
          information retrieval
	  information extraction
          question answering
          summarization
          generation
          speech recognition and synthesis
          corpus-based language modeling
          multi-lingual processing
          machine translation and translation aids
          spoken and written natural language interfaces, dialogue systems
          language in multi-modal systems
          message and narrative understanding systems

    The main conference will also feature tutorials, workshops, and
    demos.  More information on these can be found at the main
    ACL-02 page: http://www.acl02.org


    2. Submission Requirements

    Papers should describe original work, either in progress or
    completed.  It will therefore normally be open only to students
    who have settled on their thesis direction but who still have
    significant research left to do; those students in the final
    stages of their thesis should be submitting instead to the main
    conference.  Papers should clearly indicate directions for future
    research wherever appropriate.  The papers can have more than one
    author; however, all authors MUST be students.  A paper accepted
    for presentation at the Student Workshop cannot be presented or
    have been presented at any other meeting with publicly available
    published proceedings.  Papers that are being submitted to other
    conferences must indicate this immediately after the title
    material on the first page.  A student who has already presented
    at an ACL/EACL/NAACL student session will not be allowed to
    present again at the student session of any of these conferences,
    but encouraged to submit instead to the main conference.


    3. Submission Procedure

    Paper Registration

    Registration of your submission is required. This can be done by
    filling out a form available at the Student workshop pages of
    the conference site.

    After you fill out and submit this form, a unique ID number will
    be generated and sent to you in an e-mail shortly after the paper
    registration. You will then be able to use this ID number instead
    of your name on the title page of the paper and in any subsequent
    correspondence with the workshop co-chairs.

    If you are unable to use the on-line form for paper registration or
    experience problems using it, please send email to
    acl02-student at coli.uni-sb.de


    Submission format

    Submissions should follow the two-column format of ACL
    proceedings and should not exceed six (6) pages,
    including references. We strongly recommend the use of
    ACL latex style files or Microsoft Word Style files
    tailored for this year's conference. These will soon be
    available from the student workshop pages of the
    conference site.

    These style files allow for a graceful transition to the style
    required for publication. A description of the format will also be
    available in case you are unable to use these style files directly.

    Separate items to be submitted

    Identification page
    Title:
    Paper ID code: (generated at paper registration)
    Author(s) name(s) affiliation and e-mail addresses
    Topic Area: (one or two general topic areas)
    Keywords: Up to 5 keywords specifying the subject area
    Under Consideration for Other Conferences: (if yes, please specify)

    4. Reviewing Procedure

    Reviewing of papers submitted to the Student Workshop will be managed
    by the Student Workshop Co-Chairs, with the assistance of a team
    of reviewers. Each submission will be matched with a mixed panel
    of student and senior researchers for review. The final acceptance
    decision will be made based on the results of the review.

    Note that reviewing of papers will be blind; therefore, please, make
    sure you do not put the author(s) name(s) on the title page. (See
    paper submission requirements for details). You should not have any
    self-identifying references anywhere in the paper submitted for
    review. For example, you can't have a reference like this "We showed
    previously (Smith, 1991), ..." Instead, use citations such as "Smith
    previously showed (Smith, 1991)..."


    5. Schedule

    Submissions must be received by February 22nd, 2002. Late
    submissions (those arriving on or after February 23rd, 2002) will
    be automatically disqualified. The student workshop committee is
    not responsible for postal delays or other mailing problems. For
    electronic submissions, all time zones will be taken into
    account).  Acknowledgment will be emailed soon after
    receipt. Notification of acceptance will be sent to authors (by
    email) on April 8th, 2002. Detailed formatting guidelines for the
    preparation of the final camera-ready copy will be provided to
    authors with their acceptance notice.
