1. Observations and descriptions of all aspects of language and text
   phenomena, including the areas of psycholinguistics,
   sociolinguistics, dialectology, pragmatics etc. as far as they use
   quantitative mathematical methods (probability theory, stochastic
   processes, statistics, differential and difference equations, fuzzy
   logic and set theory, function theory etc.), on all levels of
   linguistic analysis.

2. Applications of methods, models, or findings from quantitative
   linguistics to problems of natural language processing, machine
   translation, language teaching, documentation and information
   retrieval.

3. Methodological problems of linguistic measurement, model
   construction, sampling and test theory.

4. Epistemological issues such as explanation of language and text
   phenomena, contributions to theory construction, system theory,
   philosophy of science.

Reports on ongoing projects are also welcome as far as they concern
any of the topics mentioned above.
