Call for Posters:  Prosody in Processing
UiL-OTS, Universiteit Utrecht

The Utrecht Institute of Linguistics OTS at Utrecht University will host an
international workshop entitled "Prosody in Processing" (PiP) on 5-6 July
2001.  The workshop will bring together researchers interested in issues
relevant to the role of prosody in the human language faculty.

The workshop will include space for a limited number of posters.  The
organising committee is thus seeking poster abstracts that address topics
within the workshop theme.  These might include, for example, posters that
treat:  potential roles of prosody in language production, language
understanding or language acquisition; the relationship of prosody to
syntax or semantics; interaction between prosody and other components of
language; or the role of prosody within the architecture of the language
faculty.

Papers based on the posters presented at the workshop will be eligible for
inclusion in the workshop proceedings.  The workshop will also include
papers given by invited speakers, in sessions entitled "Prosody and
modularity," "Prosody and syntax," "Prosody and interpretation," and
"Prosody and acquisition." The following invited speakers have confirmed
their contributions:  Anne Christophe (Lab de Sci Cognitives et
Psycholinguistique); Anne Cutler (Max Planck Institute-Nijmegen); Janet
Dean Fodor (CUNY); Lyn Frazier (UMass-Amherst); Carlos Gussenhoven
(Katholieke Universiteit Nijmegen); Marina Nespor (U di Ferrara); Ardi
Roelofs (Max Planck Institute-Nijmegen); Lisa Selkirk (UMass-Amherst);
Stefanie Shattuck-Hufnagel (MIT); Mark Steedman (U of  Edinburgh); Hubert
Truckenbrodt (MIT/Rutgers); Jocelyn Cohan (UiL-OTS); Herman Hendriks
(UiL-OTS) and Frank Wijnen (UiL-OTS).
