WHAT IS WEB INTELLIGENCE?
Web Intelligence (WI) is a new direction for scientific research and
development that explores the fundamental roles as well as practical
impacts of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and advanced Information
Technology (IT) on the next generation of Web-empowered products,
systems, services, and activities.
TOPICS AND ISSUES
This special issue seeks original, high quality, as well as
general interest papers in all aspects of Web Intelligence (WI),
such as Web information systems environments and foundations,
human-media interaction, Web information management, Web information
retrieval, Web agents, Web mining and farming, and emerging Web-based
applications.
In particular, we are interested in papers on Web agents and Web
mining -- the two most important WI related topics for both academic
research and industrial demands.
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
All submitted papers should be limited to a maximum of 4,000 words
(counting figures as 300 words each), and will be reviewed on the
basis of technical quality, relevance, originality, significance,
and clarity. Graphical illustrations and minipage summaries are
encouraged.
All paper submissions will be handled electronically. Please send
PostScript (MS-Words, or PDF) versions of your paper by February 1,
2002 to:
zhong at maebashi-it.ac.jp
IMPORTANT DATES
February 1, 2002: Electronic submission of the completed paper
June 5, 2002: Notification of acceptance
July 1, 2002: Revisions due
October 2002: Publication
ABOUT IEEE COMPUTER
IEEE Computer is a monthly magazine received by all members of The
IEEE Computer Society, consisting of researchers, practitioners,
and managers. It is one of the most ideal forums where computing
professionals of all disciplines can share their experience, solve
problems, and reach consensus.
ABOUT INTERNATIONAL WEB INTELLIGENCE CONFERENCE
The 2001 International Conference on Web Intelligence (WI'01) will be
held in Maebashi City, Japan, October 23-26, 2001. The WI-2001 is the
first conference on a new and emerging subfield of computer science
and IT known as Web Intelligence. It is a major international forum
for researchers and practitioners to present the state-of-the-art in
the development of Web intelligence, to examine performance
characteristics of various approaches in Web-based intelligent
information technology, and to cross-fertilize ideas and examine various
approaches as well as promising applications of Web-based intelligent
information technology.

in Machine Translation
March 13 - 17, 2002
Keihanna, Japan
The ninth meeting of the TMI conference will be held March 13-17, 2002
near the historic cities of Nara and Kyoto in Japan.
The workshops and tutorials will be held jointly with the Natural
Language Processing Society, Japan.
Important Dates:
- --------------
Paper Submissions: October 29, 2001 (Monday) **New Date**
Acceptance notification: December 17, 2001 (Monday) **New Date**
Camera-ready copies due: January 25, 2002 (Friday)
Workshops:

If you are interested in organizing a workshop, send your 1-2 page
proposal by October 26 to:
Teruko Mitamura <teruko at cs.cmu.edu> and Eric Nyberg <ehn at cs.cmu.edu>.
Submission Guidelines:
- --------------------
Authors are invited to submit substantial, original, and unpublished
research on any issues relevant to machine translation. Papers should
be in English, not longer than 10 pages (around 5,000 words),
including references. Topics of interest include, but are not limited
to:
MT for the Web
Practical MT (multilingual eCommerce, localization, etc.)
Methodologies for MT (statistical, example-based, KBMT, ...)
Speech and dialogue translation
NLP techniques for MT
Controlled language for MT
Knowledge acquisition for MT systems
MT evaluation techniques and evaluation results
MT for cross-lingual retrieval and question answering
Format & Style Files:
- -------------------
Your paper should be prepared according to the following guidelines
(for authors using LaTeX, there is a style file tmi02.cls available,
which comes with a pair of style files for formatting examples,
gb4e.sty and cgloss4e.sty.
See http://sevilla.mt.cs.cmu.edu/TMI2002/cfp.html):
-The font size should be no smaller than 11pt, and the paper size
should be A4.
-TMI uses an anonymous review process. Therefore, all
papers should be submitted with a separate author ID page (in a
separate file) that includes only the title of the paper, the topic
area, and the author name(s) and address(es). The paper itself should
begin with the title and an abstract, but should not include the names
or addresses of the authors.
-Papers should be submitted as .pdf files only. All papers will be
submitted electronically; authors must first register before uploading
papers to the program committee database (details coming soon on the
Author Resource page). For bibliographic references, if the author's
name(s) is/are part of the text, then only the date should be in
brackets. E.g. "Huddleston (1988) introduced the term ...", not
"(Huddleston 1988) introduced the term ..."
-Make sure your figures are not wider than the text. Don't forget to
use italics for cited words, and double quotes for glosses. If you
cite non-Roman script please cite as follows: NON-EUROPEAN
transliteration "gloss" (the transliteration should be in italics).
