    ACL/SIGPARSE will host the 9th International Workshop on Parsing
    Technologies (IWPT'03) on October 9 and 10, 2005 in conjunction with the
    2005 Human Language Technology Conference and Conference on Empirical
    Methods in Natural Language Processing (HLT/EMNLP; see
    http://www.cs.utexas.edu/~ml/HLT-EMNLP05/home.html).

    IWPT'05 continues the tradition of biennial workshops on parsing
    technology organized 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; Trento (Italy) in 2000; Beijing (China) in 2001;
    and Nancy (France) in 2003.

    Topics of interest for IWPT'05
    ---------------------------------------
    Topics of interest for IWPT'05 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) or signed languages,
    multimedia (web) documents, and parsing issues arising or viewed in a
    multimodal context. Both knowledge-based and statistical approaches are
    welcome.

    Submitting Papers
    -------------------------
    Two types of submissions are invited:
    - full papers, to be presented as such during the workshop and to be
      published in the workshop proceedings (maximally 12 pages);

      plus a summary oral presentation in a short-paper session; two-page
      summaries will be published in the workshop proceedings.
