General Information
-------------------
The Institute of  Computational Linguistics, Peking University, Beijing,
China, will host the  7th International Workshop on Parsing Technologies
(IWPT'01) from 17 to 19 October, 2001.

IWPT'01  continues  the  tradition  of  biennial  workshops  on  parsing
technology organised by SIGPARSE,  the Special Interest Group on Parsing
of the  Association for Computational Linguistics  (ACL).  This workshop
series was initiated  by Masaru Tomita in 1989.   The first workshop, in
Pittsburgh  and  Hidden Valley,  was  followed  by  workshops in  Cancun
(Mexico) in  1991; Tilburg (Netherlands)  and Durbuy (Belgium)  in 1993;
Prague  and  Karlovy Vary  (Czech  Republic)  in 1995;  Boston/Cambridge
(Massachusetts) in 1997; and Trento (Italy) in 2000.


Topics of interest for IWPT'01
--------------------------------
Topics  of  interest  for  IWPT'01  include, but  are  not  limited  to:
theoretical  and practical  studies  of parsing  algorithms for  natural
language sentences,  texts, fragments, dialogues,  ill-formed sentences,
speech input, multi-dimensional  (pictorial) languages, multimedia (web)
documents,  and  parsing  issues  arising  or  viewed  in  a  multimodal
context. Both grammar-based and statistical approaches are welcome.


Submitting Papers
-----------------
Two types of submissions are distinguished:

- Full papers,  to be presented  as such during  the workshop and  to be
  published in  the workshop proceedings  (maximally 12 pages).
  Submission of full papers is no longer possible (deadline was June 5).

- Short papers, to be presented at  the workshop in the form of a poster
  plus a  summary oral presentation  in a short-paper  session; two-page
  summaries will be published in the workshop proceedings.

Submission is  electronically,  in  postscript form.  Only if electronic
submission is impossible,  four (4) hard copies  of the paper  should be
sent. Send papers to:

        iwpt2001 at dei.unipd.it
