[Corpora-List] NooJ '08 Conference - extended deadline

[Kuti Judit]

The deadline for submitting papers for the 2008 NooJ Conference to be held 
in Budapest (8-10 June, 2008) has been extended! The new deadline is 21 
March, 2008.

The Research Institute for Linguistics of the Hungarian Academy of 
Sciences
(HAS), LAboratoire de SEmioLinguistique, Didactique et Informatique
(LASELDI, Univ. de Franche-Comté) and Maison des Sciences de l'Homme 
Claude
Ledoux, France, are looking forward to paper proposals for the upcoming 
conference.

NooJ is a freeware, linguistic engineering development environment used to
formalize various types of textual phenomena (orthography, lexical and
productive morphology, local, structural and transformational syntax) 
using
a large gamut of computational devices (from Finite-State Automata to
Augmented Recursive Transition Networks). NooJ includes tools to 
construct,
test, debug, maintain and accumulate large sets linguistic resources, and
can apply them to large texts. NooJ is used as a linguistic engineering
development platform, a corpus processor, an information extraction 
system,
a terminological extractor, a Machine Translation development tool as well
as to teach linguistics and computational linguistics.

To learn more about NooJ, download the software, linguistic resources,
manual, tutorials and reference papers: www.nooj4nlp.net.

This conference will hopefully provide an opportunity for NooJ users, as
well as other researchers interested in corpus linguistics, to meet and to
exchange their experience of development, research or teaching. It will 
also
be the occasion to present and discover the recent developments of NooJ
(v2.0).

To submit a paper, please send a one-page abstract before March 7, 2008 to
nooj08 at nytud.hu. The abstract, in French or in English, should contain
the title of the article, the name, institution, surface mail and 
electronic
address of each co-author. All papers will be reviewed by the Scientific
Committee. Authors will be notified whether their papers are accepted or
rejected by 30 April, 2008 the latest. The timeslot is 30 minutes for
presentations, including 5 minutes for discussions.
