                       Workshop on German & HPSG
                             8-9. Aug. 1991
                          DFKI, Saarbruecken

The DISCO project will hold an informal workshop on HPSG and  German  on
Aug. 8th and 9th in Saarbruecken (immediately before the  Summer  School
in Logic, Language and Information - 12-23.Aug. also  in  Saarbruecken).

Focus: the linguistic description of German in HPSG.  Talks  on  related
topics (e.g. processing, alternative models in comparison to  HPSG)  are
also welcome, but the primary focus will be on linguistic description  -
including syntax, semantics, and lexicon.

Format: small, informal workshop.  Participants limited to  40  (but  we
don't expect this to exclude interested participants). We suggest  talks
of 40 min, followed  by  20 min  discussions.  (Please  indicate  in  an
abstract if your contribution would require different scheduling.)

Preliminary schedule: The following researchers have promised  talks  on
HPSG and German:
                   Carl Pollard,  The Ohio State University
                   Tibor Kiss,    IBM Corporation
                   Klaus Netter,  DFKI (German AI Center)
                   John Nerbonne, DFKI

Financing: This is a low-budget  operation.  We  hope  that  researchers
planning to attend the summer school will try to include this  workshop.

Publication: No definite plans here, but we will  investigate  modes  of
fairly quick (and unrefereed) publication, which can be  decided  on  at
the workshop.

To deliver a talk: please submit an abstract of 200-500 words.  Indicate
your time requirements should they differ from the suggested 40 min.

To attend (otherwise): please sketch your  interest  briefly,  including
reference to work on HPSG and/or German grammar.

All  potential  attendees:  Please  send  abstracts  or  expressions  of
interest by 15.June. We shall try to respond by  1.July.  Abstracts  per
email are hugely preferred; please include a return (email)  address  in
any case. (We shall accept non email submissions, but  your  cooperation
will be greatly appreciated.)
