--------------- APOLOGIES FOR MULTIPLE POSTINGS --------------------

*CALL FOR PAPERS *
The 6TH INTERNATIONAL MALINDO WORKSHOP (MALINDO2012)
21st Jun 2012
Universiti Malaysia Sarawak (UNIMAS), Kota Samarahan, Sarawak, Malaysia
http://www.malindo.org

--------------------------------------------------------------------
A considerable amount of research has been done on the processing of
South East Asian languages offering a variety of Computational
Linguistics (CL) and Natural Language Processing (NLP) resources, tools
and applications.  All these valuable language resources are most of the
time ignored by the public and often not known by the researchers and
students working on these languages. MALINDO, as an annual international
workshop, aims to bring together researchers and practitioners,
representing different perspectives, to share and to exchange their
ideas on the processing of South East Asian languages. Because of the
venue of the 2012 Workshop, the Organisers of MALINDO will anticipate
papers related to the processing of the varieties of Borneo
languages. MALINDO’s objective is to highlight the effort and promising
works done on the processing of the South East Asian languages, thus
attracting more students to the CL and NLP fields.

The MALINDO workshops are co-organized by three South East Asian
universities: Universitas Indonesia (Depok, Indonesia), the National
University of Singapore (NUS, Singapore), and Universiti Malaysia
Sarawak (UNIMAS, Malaysia).

All accepted papers will be published in the Workshop
Proceeding. Selected papers (Enhanced version) will be published in
MASAUM Journals. Some selected papers will also be published in Book
Chapters for MASAUM E-Book.
