GSCL CONFERENCE 2011 –
MULTILINGUAL RESOURCES AND MULTILINGUAL APPLICATIONS
=================================================

Conference URL: http://www.corpora.uni-hamburg.de/gscl2011/en/

The Conference of the German Society for Computational Linguistics and
Language Technology (GSCL - www.gscl.org) in 2011 will take place from
28th to 30th September 2011 at the University of Hamburg. The main
conference theme is "Multilingual Resources and Multilingual
Applications". The conference system is now open for submissions.

Contributions to any topic related to Computational Linguistics and
Language Technology are invited, but we especially encourage
submissions that are related to the main theme. The topic
“Multilingual Resources and Multilingual Applications” comprises all
aspects of computational linguistics and speech and language
technology in which issues of multilingualism, of language contrasts
or of language independent representations play a major role. This
includes, for instance:

-       representation and analysis of parallel corpora and comparable corpora
-       multilingual lexical resources
-       machine translation
-       annotation and analysis of learner corpora
-       linguistic variation in linguistic data and applications
-       localisation and internationalisation

Conference languages are English and German; contributions are welcome
in both languages. Three types of submission are invited:

-       Regular talk - Submission of an extended abstract
-       Poster - Submission of an abstract
-       System presentation - Submission of an abstract

Only contributions in electronic form will be accepted. We do not
provide style sheets for submissions at this stage; constraints on
length are given below. Submissions must be submitted via the
electronic conference system. Accepted abstracts will be published as
a book of abstracts on the occasion of the conference.
Extended versions of selected papers will be published as a special
issue of the Journal for Language Technology and Computational
Linguistics after the conference.
