THIS WORKSHOP FOLLOWS THE TRADITION OF TWO SUCCESSFUL EUROPEAN WORKSHOPS
ON NATURAL LANGUAGE GENERATION. THE FIRST EUROPEAN WORKSHOP ON NATURAL
LANGUAGE GENERATION WAS HELD AT THE ABBEY OF ROYAUMONT, NEAR PARIS, IN
JANUARY 1987, AND THE SECOND WAS HELD AT THE UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH, IN
APRIL 1989. THE AIM WAS ALWAYS TO BRING TOGETHER RESEARCHERS FROM
LINGUISTICS, COMPUTER SCIENCE, PSYCHOLOGY, AND OTHER SCIENTIFIC DISCI-
PLINES IN A RELATIVELY YOUNG FIELD OF INCREASING IMPORTANCE.
Papers aRE INVITED ON ORIGINAL, SUBSTANTIAL, AND UNPUBLISHED RESEARCH ON
ALL ASPECTS OF NATURAL LANGUAGE GENERATION, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED
TO, ARCHITECTURES AND CONTROL STRUCTURES FOR GENERATION (SUB)SYSTEMS,
ISSUES OF REPRESENTATION AT ALL LEVELS OF GENERATION, EXPLOITING USER
MODELS FOR GENERATION PURPOSES, BUILDING DESCRIPTIONS AND REFERRING
EXPRESSIONS, TEXT PLANNING AND TEXT ORGANIZATION, LEXICALIZATION, AND
THE USE OF LINGUISTICALLY WELL-FOUNDED GRAMMARS IN GENERATION.
THE WORKSHOP WILL BE HELD FROM 13RD-15TH MARCH 1991 IN A SMALL VILLAGE
CALLED JUDENSTEIN, WHICH IS LOCATED NEAR INNSBRUCK IN AUSTRIA. THIS
VILLAGE IS SITUATED IN THE MOUNTAINS OF TYROL IN A BEAUTIFUL RURAL
LANDSCAPE. THERE WILL ALSO BE AN OPPORTUNITY TO GO SKIING THE WEEKEND
AFTER THE WORKSHOP.
ATTENDANCE AT THE WORKSHOP WILL BE LIMITED TO ABOUT 30 TO 35 PEOPLE.
CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE WORKSHOP WILL BE SELECTED ON THE BASIS OF EXTENDED
ABSTRACTS WHICH MUST BE RECEIVED BY THE ORGANIZER TOWARDS THE END OF
1990. COPIES OF THE CHOSEN ABSTRACTS WILL BE SENT TO EACH PARTICIPANT
PRIOR TO THE WORKSHOP. PRESENTERS WILL BE ENCOURAGED TO EXPAND THEIR
ABSTRACTS FOR INCLUSION IN A BOOK BASED ON THE WORKSHOP.
It is plANNED TO ORGANIZE PANELS ON SELECTED TOPICS OF NATURAL LANGUAGE
GENERATION. ALSO FACILITIES FOR SYSTEM DEMONSTRATIONS WILL BE PROVIDED.
DETAILS OF THE TIME SCHEDULE AND THE PRECISE CONDITIONS FOR SUBMISSION
