sponsored by the DFG (Research Group "Conflicting Rules")
deadline for abstracts : 1 October 2000
contact : Caroline Fery, Antony Green, Ruben van de Vijver
e-mail : [log in to unmask]
web site : http://www.ling.uni-potsdam.de/aktuelles/hilp5
Abstracts are invited in all areas of phonology, and
particularly on the conference theme:
Conflicts in Phonology
Since the emergence of constraint-based approaches to phonology, conflicts
and how to resolve them have been an important research topic. We welcome
talks on conflicts between different aspects of phonology, but also between
phonology and other domains of grammar, like syntax, morphology and
semantics.
Besides the main conference, there will be three workshops.
Workshop themes will be:
- Intonation in OT
- Stratification of the lexicon and the phonology of loanwords
- Language acquisition (with an emphasis on the areas of learnability,
acquisition and typology, and acquisition of stored representations)
Please submit six copies of an abstract of maximally two pages (plus one of
references) before 1 October 2000.
Only one of the abstracts should identify the author and her/his
affiliation. The program will be announced on 1 November.
Selected papers will be published in a reviewed volume of
proceedings. The contents of earlier volumes (HIL Phonology

using various input and output modalities (speech, gestures, mimic).
It is founded by the German government and involves twelve partners
from universities and industry.
Within the project, the IMS is responsible for the speech output
component which will be realized as a concept-to-speech component
(interfacing with an external natural language generation module). The
group is coordinated by Prof. Grzegorz Dogil. Successful applicants
will work on various aspects of this component including speaker
selection, speech database construction and synthesis unit selection.
Duration of the project will be until September 2003. The positions
are according to the BAT II scale (approx. 35000-40000 Euro p.a.,
depending on age and marital status). Starting date is as soon as
possible.
Desired qualifications:
- Ph.D., "Diplom", M.S. in a computation-oriented speech

condities die de effectiviteit van verbale communicatieproces-sen
bepalen of bevorderen. De theoretische kern van de Taalbeheersing
wordt gevormd door de linguistische pragmatiek. Daarbinnen zijn een
aantal (verwante) paradigmata te onderscheiden, waarvan de vier
belangrijkste zijn: de taalhandelingstheorie, de tekstwetenschap, de
conversatie-analyse en de normatieve argumentatietheorie.
Onderwijs wordt verzorgd in het kader van de opleidingen Nederlandse
taal en cultuur en Communicatie- en Informatiewetenschappen. Binnen
het onderzoek, dat wordt uitgevoerd in het kader van het
