 ===========================================================================
                   OTS Phonology Workshop
               Prosodic and Phrasal Phonology
             Utrecht University, July 1-3, 1996
 
Recent constraint-based phonology has devoted much attention
to word-level prosodic phenomena (e.g. syllabification, word
stress and prosody-governed phenomena such as reduplication,
epenthesis, minimality  effects). However,  it has  produced
few results  in prosodic  areas above  the word, in contrast
with the  extensive research  efforts in  prosodic phonology
during the  eighties, in  particular by  Selkirk,  Nespor  &
Vogel, as  well as  work on intonation structure by Beckman,
Pierrehumbert, Gussenhoven,  Hayes & Lahiri, and others. The
workshop's specific  goal is  to shed  light  on  constraint
interactions  at  prosodic  structure  above  the  word.  We
therefore specifically  welcome papers  which address one or
more of the following themes:
 
a.   Phonological structure at the phrasal level.
b.   Reference to prosodic word by phrase-level constraints.
c.   The syntax-phonology interface.
d.   Phonetic correlates of prosodic structure.
 
                     Invited speakers:
           Aditi Lahiri (University of Konstanz)
          Marina Nespor (University of Amsterdam)
    Lisa Selkirk (University of Massachusetts, Amherst)
 
Presentations of  invited speakers  will be 45 minutes, plus
15 minutes discussion.
     Abstracts should  be restricted to two pages, including
examples and references. Three copies of abstracts should be
submitted, two  anonymous, and  one mentioning authors' name
and affiliation. The deadline for submission of abstracts is
April 1, 1996.

Subject:  Mathematical Linguistics
 
The new dates for the II International Conference on Mathematical
Linguistics will be May 2-4, 1996, at Tarragona, Spain.
 
A few new papers can yet be considered for presentation before March
1st.  The topics of the conference are:
 
1. Foundations and methodology.
2. Mathematical models for syntax.
3. Mathematical models for semantics.
4. Applications in natural language processing.
5. Varia (phonology, computational complexity, learning, quantitative
methods, etc.)
 
At most 25 papers will be accepted wholly. For each one of them, 45
minutes will be scheduled.
 
The organizing committee will pay the expenses of accommodation of
every speaker. All participants must pay the registration fees
(pesetas 15,000) at the reception desk. A volume of abstracts and,
after the meeting, a volume of proceedings will be published.
 
2-pages ASCII/LaTeX abstracts have to be sent to: cmv at astor.urv.es
 
Details can be gotten from the same address.
