Subject: New ISO Subcommittee for Language Resource Management
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO, http://www.iso.org) has
established a new subcommittee on Language Resource Management (SC 4) of
its Technical Committee on Terminology (TC 37). The first plenary meeting
of TC 37/SC 4 was held at the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria,
Spain, on May 28.
The meeting was attended by 29 individuals from 12 countries. The
committee Chair is Laurent Romary of Laboratoire Loria, France, and
Secretary is Key-Sun Choi of Korterm, Korea. At the meeting, the following
actions were taken.
1. Antonio Zampolli of the Institute for Computational Linguistics, Pisa,
Italy, was appointed Chair of the International Advisory Committee
(IAC) of TC 37/SC 4 for a term of 3 years.
2. Working Group 1 on Basic Descriptors and Mechanisms for Language
Resources (WG 1) was established and will be chaired by Laurent Romary.
The following Work Items were approved for TC 37/SC 4/WG 1.
a. Terminology of Language Resource Management (WI 1), to be convened
by Key-Sun Choi. The task of WI 1 is to define all general concepts
and terms in the domain of SC 4.
b. Linguistic Annotation Framework (WI 2) to be convened by Nancy Ide,
Vassar College, Poughkeepsie, NY, USA. The task of WI 2 is to
develop a framework for describing and comparing annotation schemes
for language resources.
In addition, it was agreed that a Metadata for Multimodal and
Multilingual Information Work Item (WI 3) would be formed, once a
requirements paper for it is prepared. Peter Wittenburg, Max Planck
Institute for Psycholinguistics, will head up an effort to prepare such
a paper by the end of 2002.
3. Additional Working Groups and Work Items are being planned as follows.
The names and numbers for these Working Groups and Work Items are not
definitive.
a. WG 2: Representation Schemes
i. WI 4: Structural Content Representation Scheme
ii. WI 5: Multimodal Meaning Representation Scheme
iii. WI 6: Discourse Level Representation Scheme
b. WG 3: Multilingual Text Representation
i. WI 7: Translation Memory and Alignment of Parallel Corpora
ii. WI 8: Segmentation and Counting Algorithms
iii. WI 9: Meta-markup for Globalization, Internationalization and
Localization
c. WG 4: Lexical Database
i. WI 10: NLP Lexica
d. WG 5: Workflow of Language Resource Management
i. WI 11: Validation of Language Resources
ii. WI 12: Net-based Distributed Cooperative Work for the Creation
of Language Resources
The next meeting of TC 37/SC 4 will be held in Vienna, Austria on August
22 in conjunction with the annual plenary meeting of TC 37.

14th European Summer School in Logic, Language and Information
http://www.esslli2002.it
Trento, Italy
5-16 August, 2002
Co Organized by ITC-IRST,
University of Trento and Opera Universitaria,
under the auspices of FoLLI
The main focus of ESSLLI is on the interface between linguistics,
logic and computation. The school has developed into an important
meeting place and forum for discussion for students, researchers and
IT professionals interested in the interdisciplinary study of Logic,
Language and Information.
This is the first time the school is held in Italy.
The school offers about 48 courses (for more details, visit the web site
- > http://www.esslli2002.it/ ) and in the past attracted between 300
and 500 students from all over the world. In previous editions of
ESSLLI the courses covered a wide variety of topics within six areas
of interest: Logic, Computation, Language, Logic and Computation,
Computation and Language, Language and Logic. The novelty of the
14th edition is the special emphasis on the interface between the basic
areas (Logic, Language, and Computation).
So, this edition offers a large number of courses, organised into
three interdisciplinary areas (Language & Computation, Language & Logic,
and Logic & Computation), at a variety of levels (foundational,
introductory, advanced), as well as a number of workshops and
evening lectures.
The registration fee includes: lunches for 10 days, 4 lectures notes,
gadgets (t-shirt, bag, and so on), ESSLLI welcome party and ESSLLI
party.
