    CLIN 2000 -- The Eleventh
                 Computational Linguistics in the Netherlands Meeting

                 Friday, 3 November, 2000

                 Department of Computational Linguistics,
                 Tilburg University

    The goal of the CLIN meeting is to bring together the Computational
    Linguistics research community in the Netherlands (in the broadest
    possible sense of the words `Netherlands', `computational' en
    `linguistics'). The talks at the CLIN meeting are short, informal, and
    cover many diverse subareas of the field.

    This years meeting will be hosted by the Department of Computational
    Linguistics at Tilburg University. The meeting will take place in
    building Y on the campus of Tilburg University. The languages of the
    conference will be Dutch and English.

    The keynote lecture of CLIN 2000 is:

    Gregory Grefenstette, (Xerox Research Centre Europe, France)
    "Very Large Lexicons"

    There will be three parallel sessions with tracks on Machine
    Translation, Information Retrieval, Information Extraction, HPSG,
    Parsing, Semantics, Machine Learning, Generation, Grammar, Finite
    State Automata, POS tagging, Annotation, WWW, Dialogue and diverse
    other topics. The full preliminary programme of the conference is
    available at the CLIN2000 homepage (http://ilk.kub.nl/clin2000).

    We are planning to provide the opportunity for companies with research
    and development efforts in Computational Linguistics to present
    themselves in a poster-session. Those who wish to participate in this
    should contact Jakub Zavrel (zavrel@kub.nl) for more information.

    A volume with proceedings of the tenth CLIN meeting (held 10 December
    1999, in Utrecht) will be available at this year's meeting.

    The conference fee, hfl.65.-, can be paid in cash at the registration
    desk. No pre-registration is required. This fee includes the
    abovementioned volume of proceedings from the tenth CLIN, lunch, and a
    reception afterward. Proceedings of older CLIN editions will be for sale at the
    registration desk. This year's proceedings will be available at CLIN 2001.

    The local organisation committee of this year's meeting consists of
    Walter Daelemans, Khalil Sima'an, Jorn Veenstra, and Jakub
    Zavrel. Questions about the conference can be sent to clin2000@kub.nl.
