The Spanish Association of Corpus Linguistics (AELINCO) and the local Organizing 
Committee are pleased to announce that the 5th International Conference on 
Corpus Linguistics (CILC2013) will be hosted by the University Institute of 
Modern Applied Languages at the University of Alicante on 14 to 16 March 2013.
 
Since corpus work has taken on a more relevant role in descriptive and applied 
studies on the various facets of language, availability and variety of 
electronic corpus and tools for their exploitation and analysis have 
proliferated and many more are on the horizon. The availabity of such diverse 
resources offers many opportunities for researchers, language professionals, and 
language services providers. However, learning to use and apply these resources 
still poses serious challenges. The theme for this conference edition is 'Corpus 
Resources for Descriptive and Applied Studies: Current Challenges and Future 
Directions.' and its aim is to promote the submission of proposals for oral 
presentations and posters on issues related to: 
 
-         New theoretical issues arising from the work with corpus in the 
current scenario
-         Applications of corpora for terminology, translation, lexicography, 
teaching and language acquisition, etc.
-         The creation of corpus and its exploitation in descriptive and applied 
research
-         The use of technologies for the analysis of texts for different 
purposes
-         Advances in computer technology for the compilation, use and analysis 
of corpus.
-         Corpus and ICT
