A two-day workshop on Natural Language Technology will be organised by the Australasian Language Technology Association (ALTA).

The ALTA Workshop will be held in conjunction with the Australian Document Computing Symposium (ADCS), which focuses on issues ranging from the fundamentals of document architectures and standards for markup, through various aspects of document processing. Participants are encouraged to register for both ADCS and ALTA. Pre-registration through this web site has now closed, but on-site registration will be available at the conference for $25. The intial session on the afternoon of Monday Dec 8th will be a joint session.
