            Nancy, "City of Art and History", the
historical capital of Lorraine
            (the north-eastern part of France) welcomes you
to the 8th
            International Workshop on Parsing Technologies.
The Laboratoire
            Lorrain de Recherche en Informatique et ses
Applications (LORIA) in
            Nancy, France, will host the 8th International
Workshop on Parsing
            Technologies (IWPT'03) from 23 to 25 April,
2003.

            IWPT'03 continues the tradition of biennial
workshops on parsing
            technology organised by SIGPARSE, the Special
Interest Group on
            Parsing of the Association for Computational
Linguistics (ACL). This
            workshop series was initiated by Masaru Tomita
in 1989. The first
            workshop, in Pittsburgh and Hidden Valley, was
followed by workshops
            in Cancun (Mexico) in 1991; Tilburg
(Netherlands) and Durbuy
            (Belgium) in 1993; Prague and Karlovy Vary
(Czech Republic) in 1995;
            Boston/Cambridge (Massachusetts) in 1997;
Trento (Italy) in 2000,
            and Beijing (China) in 2001.
