The 7th annual conference on Architectures and Mechanisms for Language
Processing (AMLaP-2001), will be held in Saarbruecken, Germany from
September 20-22, 2001.

The aim of the conference is to bring together psychological,
computational, and theoretical perspectives on the cognitive
mechanisms which underlie any aspect of human language
processing. Integration of experimental psycholinguistic
investigations with formal or computational models of psychological
processes is especially encouraged.

This years conference will also include a special session on the theme:

         "Experience-based Models of Language Processing"

- INVITED SPEAKERS:

Dan Jurafsky, University of Colorado, Boulder
Jeff Elman, University of California, San Diego
Michael Tomasello, MPI for Evolutionary Anthropology, Leipzig

- LOCATION

AMLaP will be held in the Saarbruecken Castle (Schloss) located in
central Saarbruecken, overlooking the Saar river and the city. The
