			 CALL FOR PAPERS

	CONFERENCE ON APPLIED NATURAL LANGUAGE PROCESSING
			FEBRUARY 1-3, 1983
		     SANTA MONICA, CALIFORNIA

			  sponsored by
	     ASSOCIATION FOR COMPUTATIONAL LINGUISTICS
			      and
		   NAVAL RESEARCH LABORATORY

This special conference will focus on the use of computational
linguistic techniques in solving real world problems.  The conference
will be limited to 300 participants.  We are soliciting original
papers on the use of computational linguistic techniques in the areas
of:

	* Data, information and knowledge management
	* Training and education
	* Language translation technology
	* Speech recognition and synthesis technology.

The papers should discuss applications, evaluations, limitations, and
general tools and techniques.  Papers describing end-users' experience
with these technologies are especially welcome.

Six copies of an extended summary from five to eight pages, double
spaced, should be sent by August 15, 1982 to:

		Beatrice Oshika, MD 72-27
		System Development Corporation
		2500 Colorado Avenue
		Santa Monica, CA  90406

It is important that the summary identify distinctive aspects of the
work and clearly indicate to what extent the work is complete and has
been implemented.

Abstracts will be reviewed by the Conference Committee.  Notification
of acceptance of papers will be sent by September 15, 1982.  For
inclusion in the Conference Proceedings, final versions of papers must
be received by the Conference Chairman by November 15, 1982.  Authors
of accepted papers will be expected to sign a copyright release form.

Limited travel funds for authors will be available.

Facilities for product and system demonstrations will be available,
including videotape equipment.  Short papers describing planned
demonstrations and types of equipment required should be submitted by
November 15, 1982.

In addition to presentation of papers, tutorials and panel sessions
are planned.
