Terminology opens up new perspectives for a broad spectrum of information processing: for terminology committees, document management, modelling, language policy, knowledge capitalization, knowledge representation, translation, the semantic web, etc. But all these new perspectives throw up fresh questions as to how language and concepts interact in terminology. Terminology, as an autonomous field of research, has become pluridisciplinary and draws on linguistics, language for special purposes (LSP), artificial intelligence and information sciences. Training session As from 2010, there will be a training session before the conference proper. Emphasis for 2010 will be on the reciprocal enrichment of terminology and ontology (in French). Conference Topics (non exhaustive list) Papers will focus both on the linguistic dimension of terminology and knowledge: * LSPs, language planning (prescription, standardizing), usage, variation, * glossaries, dictionaries, thesauri and other terminological products, * multilingualism, translation, corpus processing, particularly alignment, knowledge extraction, * constructing and maintaining terminology resources, harmonizing concepts, harmonizing terms, theories of meaning, what corpora can and cannot contribute, and on their conceptual dimension: * terminological principles for constructing concept systems: knowledge representation, knowledge management, the importance of ontologies (building, maintaining, aligning, merging), * input from artificial intelligence, linguistics, epistemology, formal systems (description logic for example), not forgetting their applications: * software environments; building and maintaining terminologies, thesauri, dictionaries, ontologies, * IT applications based on knowledge and terminology resources: information systems, specialized digital libraries, document management, information retrieval, classification, knowledge management, web semantics, collaborative engineering, etc. * assessing acquisition and manipulation tools, changing standards in the field of language and ontology resources. Deadlines and other important dates Proposals for papers will be assessed by the international program committee in view to being presented orally or as a poster. Those papers accepted will be published in the proceedings as full articles and posters included as short articles.
