Subject: LREC 2006  A Zampolli Prize: Call for Nomination 
 


The ELRA Board has created a prize to honour the memory of its first
president, professor Antonio Zampolli, a pioneer and visionary scientist
who was internationally recognized in the field of computational
linguistics and Human Language Technologies (HLT). He also contributed much
through the establishment of ELRA and the LREC conference.

To reflect Antonio Zampolli's specific interest in our field, the Prize
will be awarded to individuals whose work lies within the areas of Language
Resources and Language Technology Evaluation with acknowledged
contributions to their advancements.

The prize will be awarded for the second time in May 2006 at the LREC 2006
conference in Genoa (22-28 May, 2006). Completed nominations should be sent
to the ELRA president Bente Maegaard (bente at cst.dk) and arrive by March 1st
2006.

Nominations that were received for the prize in 2004, will be taken into
account if the nominators confirm their nomination.


On behalf of the ELRA Board
Bente Maegaard
President
