HKTerm 2002
The Asian-Pacific Workshop on Terminology

Terminology Association of Hong Kong (TAHK)
29-30 March 2002, Hong Kong

CALL FOR PAPERS

Theme of Workshop
HKTerm 2002 is aimed to provide a forum for sharing valuable experiences
from academics, industrialists and government bodies in terminology and
its applications in the Asian-Pacific region. More specifically, the main
theme of this workshop is to raise the awareness of terminology work in
education, research and its applications in IT, translation, and
communication. With the coining of more terms in different disciplines in
different regions, how term definitions and usage could be coordinated
more scientifically and publicized more effectively should be an
intriguing and rewarding activity.  We would like to invite all interested
parties to take part in this workshop and help promote the awareness of
terminology work in the region.

Topics of interest (as mini tracks) include, but are not limited to:
.         Government roles in terminology standardization
.         Translation and terminology
.         IT and Internet and their impact on Terminology
IT terminology standardization, multilingual and multi-functional
terminological databases, terminology search and information retrieval
through internet, system design and implementations
.         In-house terminology development and practice in private sectors
.         Harmonization of terminology in different regions
