Conference Aim and Topics:
----------------------------------------
TKE 2012 will be the 10th edition of this conference that started out 
under the auspices of TermNet, and has developed towards wider fields in 
knowledge transfer for special language communication in a multilingual 
global society. In this context, interdisciplinary research emphasizing 
the intersection of different disciplines dealing with terminological 
aspects and knowledge engineering resources online is welcome.
This conference will mainly focus on those theoretical, methodological 
and practical aspects that show the symbiosis of terminology and 
knowledge engineering by highlighting the recent advances in these 
related fields. We invite papers on all aspects of the following topics

I. Terminology and knowledge engineering
• Lexicons, thesauri and ontologies as semantic resources
• Lexicons and ontologies as means for knowledge transfer
• Classification systems and thesauri
• Multimodal information management in terminology
• Metadata in terminological and knowledge resources
• Ontology localization
• Multilingual terminology extraction
• Terminology alignment in parallel corpora and other lexical resources
• Representation of terms and conceptual relations in knowledge-based 
applications
• Comparative studies of terminological resources and/or ontological 
resources from different languages, domains and approaches
• Interoperability and reusability in knowledge-based tools and 
applications

II. Terminology policies, standards and terminological tools
• Terminology in Languages for Specialized Purposes (LSPs)
• Terminology and lexicography teaching and learning
• Terminology for language planning
• Terminological resources in the 21st century
• Harmonization of format and standards in terminological resources
• Multilinguality and multimodality in terminological resources
• Management of language resources
• Models and metamodels in annotating semantic resources
• Reusing, standardizing and merging terminological or ontological 
resources

III. Terminology applications
• Integrating terminological resources across domains and languages
• Applying terminological resources for natural language processing
• Developing terminological tools for machine translation
• Terminology in financial and business settings
• Terminology in e-government and sector standardization
• Terminology in health sciences
• Terminology in industrial and environmental fields

Submission of extended abstracts for oral presentations and posters:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 

Extended abstracts of papers for oral presentations should consist of 
not more than four pages, excluding references and illustrations. 
Submissions should be anonymous and must be made through the EasyChair 
website of the conference 
https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=tke2012.
The abstract submitted will be used to assign reviewers, so be sure it 
identifies the subject area and expertise required to evaluate your 
work. The program committee may decide to change the category of a paper 
before acceptance.
Papers for posters should consist of not more than 2 pages, excluding 
references and illustrations.

Once the extended abstracts have been accepted, the extension of 
complete papers will be no longer than 16 pages (5000-6000 words). 
Papers that exceed this limit will be rejected. Papers should be 
submitted electronically. Submissions must be in PDF, formatted in the 
style of the Springer Publications format for Lecture Notes in Computer 
Science (LNCS). For details on the LNCS style, see Springer’s Author 
Instructions.
The 2nd Call for Papers will include further details on accommodation 
and how to arrive to the conference venue.
