SOUTHEAST ASIAN LINGUISTICS SOCIETY VIIth MEETING (SEALS VII)
May 9 - 11, 1996
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign
The conference will feature papers on any of the languages of Southeast
Asia. Topics will include:
* descriptive, theoretical or historical linguistic
language planning
* literacy
* bilingual education
* linguistic anthropology
ethnolinguistics
* language atitudes and ideology
discourse and conversational analysis
* language and gender
language and politics
Abstracts are invited for the conference. By February 5, 1997 please
submit five copies of an anonymous abstract with a separate 3 x 5"
card identifying:
1. the author, his/her affiliation;
2. address where notification or rejection should be mailed in
mid-February;
3. daytime telephone number; and
4. e-mail address, if available.
The abstract should not exceed one page; an additional page of data
and references may be submitted.
Papers presented at SEALS VII will be published in the Society's
Proceedings (by the Southeast Asia Program, Arizona State University).
To ensure inclusion in the volume, authors are asked to submit a
camera-ready copy of their papers by August 15, 1997. Presentations
will be 20 minutes in length, with 10 minutes for questions.

CALL FOR ABSTRACTS
Conference on Computational Psycholinguistics

Sponsored by the

*******************************
This conference is intended to bring together researchers who
work on psychologically motivated computational models of human
language. We solicit contributions on models of linguistic
processing, acquisition, or representation at every level:
phonetic, phonological, morphological, syntactic, semantic, and
pragmatic. The goal of the conference is to build bridges
between computationally oriented researchers who have focused on
different aspects of human language processing.
AREAS OF INTEREST:
We solicit extended abstracts for oral or poster presentations on
psychologically motivated computational models of human language
processing, or empirical or theoretical results bearing on such
models. Papers/posters may concern any aspect of human language
processing, including but not limited to:
phonetic, phonological, or morphological processing
lexical access
acquisition of phonology or morphology
acquisition of syntax and semantics
syntactic parsing
semantic and pragmatic interpretation, text understanding
conversation (e.g. turn taking, pauses, discourse cues)
generation
lexical choice
prosody
disambiguation
Authors are urged to write for computationally literate
researchers that may not be in their own subfield. We hope the
conference will afford people an opportunity to present work in
progress for feedback, and to get ideas and epiphanies from other
computational or psychological researchers with different
backgrounds. To facilitate the interchange of ideas, the
schedule will set aside a significant amount of time for
discussion, as well as an outing, probably to Napa for
winetasting.
SUBMISSION FORMAT AND DATES:
The submission should consist of a title/identification page plus
an abstract.
The title page should contain the title, author(s),
affiliation(s), and the submitting author's mailing address,
telephone number, fax number and e-mail address, as well as a
preference for an ORAL PRESENTATION or a POSTER PRESENTATION.
Please note that oral presentations and posters will be
considered to be of equal status at this conference; as a result,
they will be reviewed equally, and will have equal chances of
appearing in subsequent publications. In order to help place
oral and poster presentations on an equal footing, both poster
and oral presenters will give 2-3 oral summary "previews" of
their presentations. However, authors may not get their first
choice of presentation method because of scheduling conflicts.
The actual abstract should be 2-3 pages long, in sufficient
detail to allow substantive evaluation. It should not contain
the authors' names or addresses, as reviewing will be blind.
Furthermore, self-references that reveal the authors' identity
(e.g. "We previously showed (Chiu, 1991)...") should be avoided.
Instead use references like "Chiu previously showed (Chiu, 1991)
...".
Submissions by e-mail are STRONGLY encouraged. Acceptable
formats for electronic submissions include, in order of
preference:
1) HTML
2) Postscript (e.g. from LaTeX)
3) ASCII (plain text)
A sample HTML skeleton abstract form which may be downloaded and
copied, as well as other submission details, are included on our
website:
http://www.ccp.uchicago.edu/cpl
We expect that some or all of the submissions will be published
in either a conference or a themed volume. Submissions for
publication will be full-length papers, and will themselves be
reviewed at a later date. Please keep checking the web page for
further information on publishing plans.

Deadline for receiving abstracts: Feb 15, 1997
