It will precede the Fifth edition of the MT Summit, hosted by the EC in Luxembourg from July 10 to 14.

Paper submission and deadlines: ------------------------------- As a novelty for TMI, two kinds of papers can be submitted: 1. high-quality topical papers focussing on (but not limited to) the broad domains of - computational semantics for MT - MT for spoken language - the use of sublanguage or controlled language for MT 1.1 Six copies of topical papers should be submitted by JANUARY 15 1995. The papers should respect the following conventions: - single column, double-spaced, point size 12 for running text (figures, annexes, references can deviate from this) - maximum length: 20 pages including figures and references (about 5000 words) - they must be in English - they must contain a 100-150 word abstract 1.2 Papers will be reviewed by international experts in the field.
