EAMT Conference 2008
Hosted by the University of Hamburg
First CALL for PAPERS
The EAMT is organising a major conference in Hamburg, Germany on **22-23
September 2008**. This meeting is the 12th in a series of regular events acting
as a forum for the exchange of ideas concerning all aspects of Machine
Translation and computer aids and tools for translators. The purpose of EAMT
events is to bring together users, developers and researchers to discuss the
latest developments in this field. It will be a full-scale conference,
covering a large range of topics, it will have invited speakers, and it is
expected to attract a large number of participants and papers. For information
about previous workshops and conferences see the EAMT website: www.eamt.org
Submissions are particularly welcome which focus on the main theme of the
conference:
Machine translation applications in practice (operational systems, online
services, multilingual extraction, cross-language information retrieval,
multilingual summarization, and hand-held devices)
As in previous years, the conference will also address the prospects and
perspectives for MT within the specific situation of multilingual Europe.
However, potential speakers should note that submissions on all aspects of MT
and computer-based translation tools will be welcomed – from developers, users,
and researchers.
Submissions to the programme committee should be anonymous (no authors,
affiliations or addresses), a maximum of eight pages (A4 size) in RTF or PDF
format and sent to both Walther von Hahn (vhahn [at:] informatik [dot]
