Announcement:

*SEM: First Joint Conference on Lexical and Computational Semantics

Collocated with NAACL-HLT 2012
June 7-8, Montreal, Canada

We are pleased to announce that the ACL special interest groups SIGLEX and SIGSEM are organising a joint conference on lexical and computational semantics: *SEM

The main goal of *SEM is to provide a stable forum for the growing number of NLP researchers working on different aspects of semantic processing, which has been scattered over a large array of small workshops and conferences.

The first edition of *SEM will be a two-day conference collocated with the North American Chapter of the Association for Computational Linguistics and Human Language Technologies 2012 conference (NAACL HLT), which will take place in Montreal, Canada.

More information, including a call for papers, will be published in due course.
