NEMLAR Arabic Language Resources and Tools conference - Early bird
registration: 15th July 2004

**********************************************************************

The international conference on Arabic Language Resources and Tools is
organised by the NEMLAR project consortium and will take place the
22-23 September 2004 in Cairo, Egypt.

In this conference we will focus on Arabic language technology and on
the necessary language resources and tools for both research and
commercial development of language technology for Arabic. Multilingual
language technology is also highlighted, as well as general
methodologies. Evaluation of modules and systems is another field
which is closely related to language resources, because language
resources are used to perform the evaluation. Substantial mutual
benefits will be achieved by addressing these issues through
international collaboration. For this reason, the conference is
organised at the international level.  The conference is held under
the auspices of H.E. prof. Ahmad Nazeef, the Egyptian Minister of
Information & Telecommunications.
