                          Special Issue on:
                   Machine Translation for Arabic
 
During the last decade, much research has been conducted in Machine Translation 
where the Arabic language was the focus.  Building on the success of these efforts, 
the Machine Translation Journal is issuing a call for contributions for a special 
issue on the topic of Machine Translation between Arabic and other languages.  
The special issue will primarily focus on challenges and solutions for translation 
to and from Arabic. We encourage research groups that are engaged in defining the 
current state of Arabic Machine Translation and the groups engaged in the various 
large scale evaluations involving Arabic Machine Translation to submit extended 
papers that describe their innovative contribution to the filed. This special 
issue will provide a forum for this vital research to be published and archived, 
so that it is accessible to the broad Machine Translation and Computational 
Linguistics communities.
