Second Workshop on Controlled Natural Language, Marettimo Island, Italy

The Second Workshop on Controlled Natural Language will take place from 13 to 15 September 2010 on Marettimo Island, Italy.

Controlled natural languages (CNLs) are subsets of natural languages. They are created by restricting grammar and vocabulary in order to reduce or eliminate ambiguity and complexity. Traditionally, controlled languages fall into two major types: those that improve readability for people, and those that aid automated analysis of the language.

The event will address a wide range of issues connected to controlled natural languages, including:
- the design of CNLs and comparison between CNLs,
- lexical and syntactic issues for CNLs,
- CNL semantics and knowledge representation,
- expressivity within CNLs,
- reasoning in CNLs,
- theoretical results for CNLs,
- CNLs for interaction, communication and dialogue,
- CNL in the context of linked open data (LOD) content creation and annotation,
- CNL and the semantic web,
- tool support architectures for CNLs,
- linking text mining to CNLs,
- CNLs and mobile computing.For further information on registration, please visit:
