[CfP] HPSG 2011 (04/01/2011)
The 18th International Conference on Head-driven Phrase Structure Grammar (HPSG 2011)
Call for papers
Abstracts are solicited for presentations which address linguistic, foundational, or computational issues relating to the framework of Head-Driven Phrase Structure Grammar.
* Conference Format:
There will be two sessions: a main session, with 30 minute presentations, and a poster session. The poster session is intended as a means of encouraging the presentation of work that is not yet fully mature.
Prospective speakers may submit either a 5 page abstract for the main session, or a 2 page abstract for the poster session. Abstracts submitted initially for the main session may be accepted, at the discretion of the program committee, for presentation in the poster session instead.
* Venue and Related Events
The HPSG Conference will take place in at the University of Washington in Seattle, WA on 24-25 August 2011. It will be preceded by a day of tutorials on 22 August, and a workshop on Information Structure and Formal Grammar on 23 August. There will be a separate call for papers for the workshop.
The tutorials will be given by Nicholas Asher (Toulouse) and Johanna Nichols (UC Berkeley).
