[Corpora-List] LREC 2006 - Antonio Zampolli Prize: Call for nominations

[lrec]

The ELRA Board has created a prize to honour the memory of its first 
president, professor Antonio Zampolli, a pioneer and visionary scientist 
who was internationally recognized in the field of computational 
linguistics and Human Language Technologies (HLT). He also contributed 
much through the establishment of ELRA and the LREC conference.

To reflect Antonio Zampolli's specific interest in our field, the Prize 
will be awarded to individuals whose work lies within the areas of 
Language Resources and Language Technology Evaluation with acknowledged 
contributions to their advancements.

The prize will be awarded for the second time in May 2006 at the LREC 
2006 conference in Genoa (22-28 May, 2006). Completed nominations should 
be sent to the ELRA president Bente Maegaard (bente at cst.dk) and arrive 
by March 1st 2006.

Nominations that were received for the prize in 2004, will be taken into 
account if the nominators confirm their nomination.


On behalf of the ELRA Board
Bente Maegaard
President
