AREAS OF INTEREST

Areas of interest include all topics related to theoretical and applied computational linguistics, such as (but not limited to) the topics listed for the conference paper submission.

The systems may be of the following kinds:

• Natural Language Processing systems or system components
• Application systems using language technology components
• Software tools for computational linguistics research
• Software for demonstration or evaluation
• Development tools

FORMAT FOR SUBMISSIONS

Demo proposals consist of the following parts, which should all be sent to the Demo Chairs. Please use the main IJCNLP paper formatting guidelines.

• An extended abstract of the technical content to be demonstrated, including title, authors, full contact information, references, and acknowledgements.
• A "script outline" of the demo presentation, including accompanying narrative, and either a Web address for accessing the demo or visual aids (e.g., screenshots, snapshots, or diagrams).
• A detailed description of the hardware, software and internet service requirements expected to be provided by the local organizer.

The entire proposal should not be more than four pages.

SUBMISSIONS PROCEDURE

The deadline for proposals is June 02, 2011. Submissions must be received electronically. Please submit your proposals and any inquiries to the demonstrations co-chairs (dc at ijcnlp2011 dot org).

Submissions will be evaluated on the basis of their relevance to computational linguistics, innovation, scientific contribution, presentation, as well as potential logistical constraints.

Accepted submissions will be allocated maximum four pages in the Companion Volume to the Proceedings of the Conference.
