Fifth European Conference on
Software Maintenance and Reengineering
Lisbon area, Portugal
14 to 16 March 2001
http://www.esw.inesc.pt/csmr2001
Call for Papers
CSMR is the premier European Conference on Software Maintenance and
Reengineering. Its purpose is to promote both discussion and
interaction about maintenance and reengineering. Topics of interest
include, but are not restricted to:
* Maintenance and reengineering metrics and economics
* Patterns languages for maintenance and reengineering
* Experience reports on maintenance and reengineering
* Maintenance and reengineering tools
* Enabling technologies for maintenance and reengineering
* Formal methods to support maintenance and reengineering
* Software evolution and architecture recovery
* System assessment for reengineering or maintenance
* Migration and maintenance issues
* Dealing with legacy systems towards new technologies
One of the basic intentions of this conference is to offer an European
forum for discussion and exchange of experiences among researchers and
practitioners. Therefore, besides academics, we kindly invite all
those in companies developing maintenance tools, offering
reengineering services or going through legacy systems migration
experiences to contribute by submitting papers or presenting
innovative tools, solutions or experience reports. This conference is
not limited to European participants. Authors from outside Europe are
especially welcomed.
SUBMISSIONS:
Two types of submissions will be accepted: full length papers (not
exceeding 4000 words in length and including a 150-200 word abstract)

75-100 word abstract). All papers should be in English. Authors are
requested to submit electronically a PostScript or PDF version of their
papers. In addition, they should send a separate file containing the

LAST CALL FOR PAPERS
The second Chinese Language Processing Workshop
Sponsored by SIGLEX, SIGDAT and SIGPARSE.
October 2000
Hong Kong University of Science and Technology
In conjunction with ACL-2000
Growing interest in Chinese Language Processing is leading to the
development of resources such as annotated corpora and automatic
segmenters, part-of-speech taggers and parsers. The first Asian ACL
provides an ideal opportunity to bring together influential
researchers from Taiwan, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Beijing, as well as
Chinese language researchers in the rest of the world, to discuss
issues that are specific to the processing of Chinese. A critical tool
for developing Chinese language processing tools is the availability
of annotated corpora. The greater the consensus we have around
guidelines for corpus annotation of part-of-speech tags, syntactic
bracketing and other areas, the more useful this corpora will be.
We welcome submissions that address the following topics on Chinese
language processing:
. word segmentation
. POS tagging
. phrase identification
. parsing
. grammar development
. lexicon acquisition
. corpus development
We invite workshop participants to take advantage of two bracketed corpora:
. The first one, the Chinese Penn Treebank, was developed at University of
Pennsylvania, USA. It includes 100-thousand words from Xinhua News.
The corpus has been released via LDC at UPenn.
For more information and the release announcement, please check the
website http://www.ldc.upenn.edu/ctb/
. The second one, developed by CKIP, Academia Sinica in Taiwan, contains
more than 30,000 sentences. A trial version of 1,000 sentences is now
available for downloading by the public at
http://godel.iis.sinica.edu.tw/CKIP/trees1000.htm
The release of the complete treebank is being reviewed by Academia Sinica.
Preliminary arrangements have been made for the treebank to be licensed
through ROCLING. Please check their website
(http://rocling.iis.sinica.edu.tw/ROCLING) for announcements.
The workshop will be held either on Oct 7 or Oct 8. For the latest updates
of the workshop, please check http://www.ldc.upenn.edu/ctb/clp00.html
If you have any questions concerning the workshop or the Treebank,
please email us at chinese at linc.cis.upenn.edu.
Submissions:
Submissions are limited to original, unpublished work. Papers may not
exceed 3200 words (exclusive of title page and references). Papers
outside the specified length are subject to be rejected without
review. The paper should be written in English.
The style files for submission are the same as the ones for ACL
regular papers, which can be downloaded from
http://www.cs.ust.hk/acl2000/fcfp.html. The reviewing of papers will
be blind. Hence the title page and paper should not include the
authors' names and affiliations. Furthermore, self-references that
reveal the author's identity (e.g., "We previously showed (Smith,
1991) ...") should be avoided. Instead, use citations such as "Smith
previously showed (Smith, 1991) ...".
As reviewing will be blind, a separate title page and identification page
will be required. The title page should include the following information:
Title:
Paper ID Code: just put "00"
Topic Area: one or two general topic areas
Keywords: Up to 5 keywords specifying subject area
Which Session: just put "G"
Word Count, excluding title page and references:
Under Consideration for other Conferences (specify):
Abstract: short summary (up to 5 lines)
The identification page should contain all of the information in the
title page, but in addition must include the authors' names,
affiliations, and email addresses. The format for the identification
page should be as follows:
Title:
Paper ID Code: just put "00"
Authors' names, affiliations, and email addresses
Topic Area: one or two general topic areas
Keywords: Up to 5 keywords specifying subject area
Which Session: just put "G"
Word Count, excluding title page and references:
Under Consideration for other Conferences (specify):
Abstract: short summary (up to 5 lines)
Submissions must be received by July 10, 2000. Six (6) paper copies
(printed on both sides of the page if possible) including the title
page plus two (2) identification pages should be submitted to the
following address:
CLP-2000 submission
c/o Fei Xia
Institute for Research in Cognitive Science (IRCS)
3401 Walnut St. Suite 400A
Philadelphia, PA 19104, USA
Also, a postscript version of the paper (EXCLUDING the ID page) must
be emailed to chinese at linc.cis.upenn.edu on or before July 10. Please
also email us an ID page in a separate email. Once the submission is
received, a paper ID will be assigned to the paper and this ID number
will be emailed to the authors. The authors should include the ID
number in the subject lines in subsequent email exchanges.
Important Dates:
July 10, 2000 Submission of full-length paper
