Subject: Call for Papers - Translating and the Computer 24
24th Annual Conference: TRANSLATING AND THE COMPUTER
21-22 November 2002
CBI, London
Organised by Aslib/IMI and supported by EAMT, IAMT, ITI and BCS
This conference is one of the few international events which focuses on the
user aspects of translation software and as such has been particularly
beneficial to a very wide audience including translators, business
managers, researchers and language experts.
Once again, this year the conference will address the latest developments
in translation (and translation-related) software. It will address the
needs of the following conference attendees:
- industry
- public administration
- agencies
- freelancers
- development
This call for papers invites abstracts of papers to be presented at the
conference. The papers (and the presentations) should focus on the user
aspects of translation or translation-related software rather than on
theoretical issues. Presentations accompanied by demonstrations are
especially welcome.
TOPICS
The range of topics includes (but is not limited to)
- use of MT systems
- machine-aided translation and translation aids
- controlled languages and their use in MT
- speech translation
- terminology
- localisation
- multilingual document management/workflow
- case studies of technology-based solutions
- the Internet and translation aids/services
- the value of free versus charging services/sites on the Internet
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
Authors are required to submit an abstract of a MINIMUM of 500 words of the
paper they would like to present, together with an outline of the structure
of the paper and short BIOGRAPHY.
Abstracts should be sent by post or email before 20th June 2002 to:
Nicole Adamides, Conference Organiser

accepted papers (authors will be provided with detailed camera-ready copy
guidelines) will be included in the conference proceedings and must be
submitted by 10th October 2002.

Subject: Please join the ELO Symposium this Sat
The Electronic Literature Organization's Symposium is April 4-6 in LA.
<http://www.eliterature.org/state/index.shtml>
If you can't make it in person, please join us online Saturday the 6th
from 12-1 PT (20:00 hours GMT)
What we'll discuss:
The electronic writing and art communities are
intertwined to the point where no one can tell where
one ends and one leaves off. This meeting will be one
in a series of meetings proposed at other conferences
including Incubation in July 2002 and Hypertext02 in
June 2002.
This is a chance to meet fellow creators of electronic
art/music/literature and explore:
How can we use the online environment to further
collaborations between artists and writers?
How do the online environment and other new media
tools modify the relationship between writing,
language, imagery, culture, and ethnicity?
How has online communication and coordination changed
art and writing?
How are lines between art and literature blurring?
What new ways are we using to communicate with art
and writing?
