The International Symposium on MT, NLP and Translation Support
Systems (iSTRANS-2004) is scheduled to be held during November 17-19,
2004 at India Habitat Centre, New Delhi, India. 
     The International symposium on machine translation, natural
language processing and translation support systems, is intended to
act as a forum for promoting interaction among the researchers,
developers and users across the world in the general area of machine
translation and natural language processing. 
  India is a highly multilingual country with more than 18 officially
recognized languages and hundreds of dialects in use. These languages
are being used by millions of people in South Asia, South-East Asia,
Mauritius, Fiji and as minority languages in Europe, Canada and USA.
Thus India forms a good test-bed for testing translation strategies in
a practical sense. 

Scope:
The scope of the conference spans a wide spectrum of topics which
include (but not limited to) the following: 
"       MT Strategies for simultaneous translations 
"       RBMT 
"       EBMT 
"       SMT 
"       MEMT 
"       Corpus based MT 
"       Hybrid Systems 
"       NLP Grammar & Parsing 
"       Semantic & Lexical Resources 
"       Summarization 
"       Cross-Lingual Information Retrieval 
"       Translation Support Systems 
"       MT evaluation & Test Bed Design 
"       S2S MT 
"       Translation Front-end Systems (OCR, ASR etc) 
"       Translation Back-end Systems (TTS, fomatting etc) 

  iSTRANS-04 is being held in association with SPLASH-2004.  The
conference will have a number of key-note speakers who are actively
involved in R & D activities in this area.
