*******************
* CALL FOR PAPERS *
*******************
* Aim and format
To survey research in the field, and to allow researchers (in Logic,
Computer Science, Artificial Intelligence, Linguistics, etc.) to
exchange ideas, techniques and results.
o Both finished work and work in progress can be reported. We
welcome three classes of submissions with presentation:
+ System description: 2 pages (system demo)
+ Work in progress: 5 pages (short presentation)
+ Polished work: 15 pages (long presentation)
o Submissions will be refereed primarily on a basis of relevance,
for an informal proceedings distributed only at the workshop.
Since an intention of the workshop is to survey current work,
versions of papers that have been, or may, appear elsewhere are

of refereeing, for proper publication as a book or journal special
issue.
o Submissions should be sent by email: please mail
+ a postscript file, and
+ a plain text file including title, authors, and contact
information
to ld98 at informatik.uni-freiburg.de
* Topics of interest
We welcome papers on current research in all aspects of Labelled
Deduction, including but not limited to:
o Logical modeling based on Labelled Deduction
o Formal metatheory for, or based on, Labelled Deduction
o Hybrid reasoners and combinations of logics based on labelling
o Automated reasoning, implementation, and system support
o Annotated logic programming
o Applications
* Important dates
o Submission: April 15th, 1998
o Notification: June 26th, 1998
o Final Papers: July 31st, 1998
o Workshop: Sept 7 - 9, 1998

NOTE: Abstracts for SALT 8 are due this coming Tuesday December 2, 1997!
SALT 8 - Call for Papers
Semantics and Linguistic Theory
Eighth Annual Meeting
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
May 8-10, 1998
Invited Speakers:
Angelika Kratzer
Fred Landman
Richard Larson
Tanya Reinhart
SALT 8 welcomes submissions for 30-minute presentations (with 10 additional
minutes for discussion) on any topic in the semantic analysis of natural
language emphasizing the connection to linguistic theory. Authors should
submit 10 copies of abstracts, no more than 2 pages (1000 words) long.
Authors' names, address, affiliation, status (faculty/student), phone
number and e-mail address, paper title, and list of prior or planned
presentations at other conferences should accompany the abstracts on a 3x5
card. Fax or E-mail submissions will not be accepted.
- -------------
Guidelines:
SALT does not accept papers that by the time of the conference have
appeared or have been accepted for publication in a peer-reviewed journal.
Preference will be given to presentations not duplicated at other major
conferences (including LSA, NELS, WCCFL, etc.). Authors are asked to
indicate prior or planned presentations of their papers on the abstract
submission card.
Any person can submit at most one abstract as sole author and a second
abstract as co-author or two abstracts as co-author.
Choose a title that clearly indicates the topic of the paper. State the
problem or research question raised by prior work, with specific references
to relevant prior work. State the main point or argument of the proposed
presentation. Give at least one critical example, with explanation of why
and how it supports the main point or argument. When examples are in
languages other than English, provide word by word glosses. State the
relevance of your ideas to past work or to the future development of the
field. Describe analyses in as much detail as possible. Avoid merely saying
"a solution to this problem will be presented". [adapted from the LSA
guidelines for abstract submissions]
- -------------
Deadline for submission of abstracts is Tuesday December 2, 1997.
The program will be announced in February 1998.
Send abstracts to:
