We often use languages. First, to communicate between ourselves. Later,
to communicate with computers. And more recently, with the advent of
networks, we found a way to make computers communicate between
themselves. All these different forms of communication use languages,
different languages, but that still share many similarities. In SLATE we
are interested in discussing these languages.
Being languages such a broad subject, SLATE is organized in three main
tracks:
1) HCL Track: Processing Human-Computer Languages The HCL track is
where researchers, developers and educators exchange ideas and
information on the latest academic or industrial work on language
design, processing, assessment and applications.
2) CCL Track: Processing Computer-Computer Languages The CCL track
main goal is to provide a broad space for discussion about the XML
mark-up language: examples of usage and associated technologies.
3) HHL Track: Processing Human-Human Languages The HHL track is
dedicated to the discussion of research projects and ideas involving
natural language processing and their industrial application.
A detailed topic list for each one of these tracks is presented below.
HCL Track: Processing Human-Computer Languages
* Programming language concepts, methodologies and tools; * Language
and Grammars, design, formal specification and quality; * Design of
novel language constructs and their implementation; * Domain Specific
Languages design and implementation; * Programming, refactoring and
debugging environments; * Dynamic and static analysis: Program Slicing;
* Program Comprehension; * Compilation and interpretation techniques;
* Code generation and optimization; * Program visualization and
animation; * Programming languages teaching methods; * Languages for
modeling; * Dynamic languages; * Programmer profiling; *
Cross-fertilization of different technological spaces (modelware,
grammarware, ontologies, etc).
CCL Track: Processing Computer-Computer Languages
* IoT data protocols; * Semantic data description frameworks; *
Semantic Web languages; * Ontology engineering; * XML Databases and
Big Data; * Publishing and document storage formats; * HTML5 and web
formatting; * Industry specific XML based standards; * Web APIs and
service marketplaces; * Service Oriented Architectures; * E-learning
systems, standards and interoperability; * Data and graph visualization
languages.
HHL Track: Processing Human-Human Languages
* Computational morphology, syntax and semantics; * Machine
translation and tools for computer assisted translation; *
Computational terminology and lexicography; * Speech synthesis and
understanding; * Information retrieval, extraction and automatic
question answering; * Corpora linguistics; * NLP system and resource
evaluation; * Public tools and resources for NLP; * Ontologies and
knowledge representation; * Statistical Methods applied to NLP; *
Language teaching support tools.
SLATE Publication Policy
Paper types:
* Full papers - 8 to 14 pages, presented in 20+5 minutes, complete
work, including a validation or discussion;
* Short papers - 6 to 8 pages, presented in 10+5 minutes, ongoing
work, well anchored in the literature, but not yet fully validated;
* Lightning talks - no publication, presented in 3 to 5 minutes,
research ideas or work that has just started.
All accepted papers will be published in the conference proceedings,
under an ISBN reference, on paper and digital support. They will also
integrate the OASIcs series:
http://www.dagstuhl.de/publikationen/oasics/. In addition, we are
currently envisioning several publication follow-ups for SLATE’17 (more
information will be posted later on the conference website).
Papers should be written using the OASIcs LaTeX template, using the
English language. Please refer to our website
(http://slate-conf.org/2017/submissions) for details about the document
preparation.
