[Adriane Boyd]

First Call for Papers for the NAACL HLT 2010 Student Research Workshop

June 1-6, 2010, Los Angeles, CA

http://naaclhlt2010.isi.edu/srw.html

Submission deadline: February 15, 2010


1. General Invitation for Submissions

The Student Research Workshop (SRW) is an established tradition at ACL 
conferences. The workshop provides a venue for student researchers 
investigating topics in computational linguistics and natural language 
processing to present their work and receive feedback from a general 
audience as well as from panelists. The panelists are experienced 
researchers who will prepare in-depth comments and questions in advance of 
the presentation.

We invite student researchers to submit their work to this workshop. Since 
the SRW is an excellent testing ground for your ideas before an 
international audience of experts, the emphasis of the workshop will be on 
work in progress. Admissible research can derive from any topic area 
within computational linguistics and can be applicable to either speech or 
text. A list of topic areas is provided in the Call for Papers for the 
NAACL HLT 2010 Conference and is available at:

http://naaclhlt2010.isi.edu/cfp.html

2. Submission Requirements

The emphasis of the workshop is original and unpublished research. The 
papers should describe original work in progress. Students who have 
decided on their thesis direction but still have significant research left 
to do are particularly encouraged to submit papers.

Since the main purpose of presenting at the workshop is to exchange ideas 
with other researchers and to receive helpful feedback for further 
development of the work, papers should clearly indicate directions for 
future research wherever appropriate.  All authors of multi-author papers 
MUST be students. Papers submitted for this workshop are eligible only if 
they have not been presented at any other meeting with publicly available 
published proceedings. Students who have already presented at an 
ACL/EACL/NAACL Student Research Workshop may not submit to this workshop. 
These students should submit their papers to the main conference instead.

3. Submission Procedure

Submission will be electronic using the paper submission web page below:

https://www.softconf.com/naaclhlt2010/srw/

Submissions should follow the two-column format of ACL proceedings and 
should not exceed six (6) pages, including references. Note that papers 
shorter than 6 pages may also be submitted in consideration for poster 
presentation rather than oral presentation. We strongly recommend the use 
of ACL LaTeX style files or Microsoft Word style files tailored for this 
year's conference. These files are available at:

http://naaclhlt2010.isi.edu/authors.html

A description of the format is available there in case you are unable to 
use these style files directly. All submissions must be electronic: please 
use the submission website above to submit your paper.

4. Reviewing Procedure

The review procedure of papers submitted to the Student Workshop will be 
managed by the Student Research Workshop Co-Chairs, with the assistance of 
a team of reviewers. Each submission will be matched with a mixed panel of 
student and senior researchers for review. The final acceptance decision 
will be based on the results of these reviews. The review process is 
double-blind; therefore, please ensure that your paper shows the title, 
but no other information that can identify the author(s).  For example, 
rather than this: ''We showed previously (Smith, 2001), ...'', use 
citations such as: ''Smith (2001) previously showed ...''.

5. Schedule

The papers must be submitted no later than 11:59 EST, February 15, 2010. 
No papers received after this deadline will be accepted. Acknowledgment 
will be emailed soon after receipt. Notification of acceptance will be 
sent to authors (by email) on March 30, 2010. Detailed formatting 
guidelines for the preparation of the final camera-ready copy will be 
provided to authors with their acceptance notice.

Important Dates:

      * Papers due: February 15, 2010
      * Notification of acceptance: March 30, 2010
      * Camera ready papers due: April 12, 2010
      * Conference date: June 1-6, 2010

The Student Research Workshop will be held during the NAACL HLT 2010 
conference.
