Subject: Workshop on Athabaskan Prosody
A Workshop on Athabaskan Prosody: Tone, stress, tone-stress interaction,
prosody-morphology interaction will take place Friday, June 9, 2000 in
Moricetown, B.C., Canada. Invited speakers include: Jeff Leer, Siri
Tuttle, Bill Poser, John Alderete, Tanya Bob and Suzanne Gessner.
Funding for the workshop is provided by a SSHRC grant (to Tonia Mills,
Margaret Anderson and Sharon Hargus) and by workshop registration fees.
The annual Athabaskan Language Conference will take place Saturday and
Sunday, June 10-11, 2000, in Moricetown. This year's conference will
feature a multi-media fair (pending sufficient submissions for a 'fair').
Funding for the conference is provided by The University of Northern
British Columbia, University of Washington, Kyah Wiget Education Society,
and conference registration fees.
A conference web site has been set up at:
http://faculty.washington.edu/sharon/ALC2000/
The recently updated web site now includes:
*registration form
*accommodation guide and other logistical considerations
Participants should make their own arrangements for lodging in Smithers, a
town about 21 miles to the south of Moricetown. However, a limited amount
of billeting in private homes in Moricetown may be available. See
registration form.
Abstracts are currently being accepted for 20-minute presentations on any
aspect of the Athabaskan languages: linguistics, pedagogy, language
maintenance, lexicography, language and culture, etc. Abstract
submissions for either the prosody workshop or the conference per se are
welcome.
Please send a 1-page abstract to Sharon Hargus by May 1, 2000. Abstracts
may be submitted by e-mail (sharon at u.washington.edu), FAX (206 685-4263),
or regular mail (Sharon Hargus, University of Washington, Department of
Linguistics, Box 354340, Seattle WA 98195-4340). Include your name,
institution, address, e-mail address, and phone or FAX. One-page abstracts
must be accompanied by a 50-word version, which will be posted on the
conference web site. Abstracts for multi-media presentations should also
specify format of presentation and equipment needed.

Second Call for Papers
----------------------
LOPSTR 2000
Tenth International Workshop on
Logic-based Program Synthesis and Transformation
Program Development Stream of CL 2000
First International Conference on Computational Logic
24-28 July 2000
Imperial College, London, UK
http://www.cs.man.ac.uk/~kung-kiu/lopstr2000
LOPSTR 2000, The Tenth International Workshop on Logic-based Program
Synthesis and Transformation will be held on 24-28 July 2000 at
Imperial College, London, UK, as the Program Development Stream at
CL2000, the First International Conference on Computational Logic.
The aim of LOPSTR ( http://www.cs.man.ac.uk/~kung-kiu/lopstr ) is to
stimulate and promote international research and collaboration on
logic-based program development, and the workshop is open to
contributions in logic-based program development in any paradigm. Past
workshops were held in Manchester, UK (1991, 1992, 1998),
Louvain-la-Neuve, Belgium (1993), Pisa, Italy (1994), Arnhem, the
Netherlands (1995), Stockholm, Sweden (1996), Leuven, Belgium (1997),
Venice, Italy (1999).
LOPSTR also aims to be a lively, friendly forum for presenting and
discussing work in progress, so it is a real workshop in the sense
that it is intended to provide useful feedback to authors on their
preliminary research. Formal proceedings of the workshop are produced
only after the workshop, in order that authors can incorporate this
feedback in the published papers.
LOPSTR 2000 will be run as follows:
- Authors submit extended abstracts (8 pages) describing work in progress.
- Promising abstracts relevant to the scope of LOPSTR are selected
for presentation at the workshop.
- At the workshop, only informal pre-proceedings of the selected
abstracts are available (usually in the form of a technical report).
- After the workshop, authors of the best abstracts are invited to
submit full papers. These are reviewed, and accepted papers then
form the formal (fully refereed) proceedings of the workshop,
currently published in the Lecture Notes in Computer Science series,
by Springer-Verlag.
Topics
------
We solicit extended abstracts describing work in progress. Topics of
interest cover all aspects of logic-based program development, all
stages of the software life cycle, and issues of both
programming-in-the-small and programming-in-the-large.
For programming-in-the-small, the following is a non-exhaustive list:
- specification - analysis
- synthesis - optimisation
- verification - composition
- transformation - reuse
- specialisation - applications
For programming-in-the-large, the above topics are particularly of
current interest in the context of:
- component-based software development
- software architectures
- design patterns and frameworks.
Submission Guidelines
---------------------
Extended abstracts should be written in English and should not exceed
8 pages in llncs format ( http://www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html ).
Abstracts must be submitted electronically using the submission form
( http://www.cs.man.ac.uk/~kung-kiu/lopstr2000/subm ).
Submission deadline: 21 April 2000
Notification: 26 May 2000
