17th International conference on Application of Natural Language 
Processing to Information Systems

Groningen, The Netherlands, June 26-28 2012
 ============================================================================= 


NLDB is a series of conferences  organized since 1995  dedicated to
applications of Natural Language Processing (NLP) in the Information 
Systems
field. In recent years, emphasis has been on topics such as sentiment
analysis,  information extraction, question answering, NLP for information
systems, summarization, analysis of social media, use and construction of
ontologies, and the semantic web. It aims at bringing together researchers,
industrials, and potential users interested in these areas.

NLDB 2012 will take place from June 26 to June 28  in Groningen (the 
Netherlands).

Proceedings appear in the Springer LNCS series. After the conference, 
authors of
the best papers are invited to submit an extended version of their paper 
for a
special issue of Data and Knowledge Engineering.

More information is available at www.nldb.org

**** Topics and Interest ****

NLDB 2012 invites researchers from academia and industry to submit 
papers for oral
or poster presentations on recent, unpublished research that addresses 
theoretical
aspects, algorithms, applications, architectures for applied and 
integrated NLP,
resources for applied NLP, and other aspects of NLP, as well as review 
and discussion papers.
