[Dan Cristea]

CALL FOR TUTORIAL PROPOSALS

Proposal submission deadline: November 3, 2002

 
EACL 2003
11th Conference of the European Chapter
of the Association for Computational Linguistics
 
The EACL 2003 Program Committee invites proposals for the Tutorial Program for EACL 2003, which is to be held in the interval April 12 - 17, 2003 in the Agro Hotel, Budapest, Hungary. The tutorials for EACL 2003 will be held on April 12 in two sessions (morning and afternoon). 
Tutorial speakers will have an opportunity to disseminate state-of-the-art techniques and approaches in the areas of their expertise to the CL/NLP research community. Members from all segments of the CL/NLP and related fields are invited to submit proposals for review. 

Each tutorial should be well-focused so that its core content can be covered in three hours of lecture time (including the break). However, in exceptional cases six-hour tutorial slots are possible as well.

Submission Details 

Proposals for tutorials should be no more than four pages in length, and should contain: 

  a.. a brief but technical description of the tutorial topic; 
  b.. the names, postal addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses of the tutorial speakers, with brief descriptions of their technical background; 
  c.. the name of one tutorial speaker with an email address as the primary contact; 
  d.. a list of audio-visual and computer requirements and special room requirements, if there are any. 
Proposals should be submitted by electronic mail, in any of the forms (rtf, pdf or ps) no later than 15 November 2002.

Please submit your proposals and any inquiries (subject line should be: "EACL-03 TUTORIAL PROPOSAL") to:

Tutorial Speakers' Responsibilities 

1. Tutorial speakers must provide descriptions of their tutorials for inclusion in the Conference Registration. The description must be provided as follows: 

  a.. an rtf and a pdf version that fits onto 1/2 page;
  b.. an ASCII version that can be included with email announcements; 
  c.. an HTML version that can be included on the Conference home page. 
2. Finances: The current ACL policy is that tutorials are reimbursed at the following rate: $500 per session plus $25 per registrant in the range 21-50 plus $15 per registrant in excess of 50. Note that this is per tutorial, not per presenter: multiple presenters will split the proceeds, the default assumption being an even split. The ACL does not usually cover travel expenses except where the presenter(s) cannot get them through the usual mechanisms: for ACL members we assume that they would be coming to the meeting anyway. For people who are not ACL members, we would expect to pay for costs that they cannot get reimbursed elsewhere. If they attend the conference, tutorial presenters must register for EACL03.

3. Tutorialists will prepare all the tutorial materials.
