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

I. Terminology and knowledge engineering
* 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 and alignment for 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 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
* Multilinguality and multimodality in terminological resources
* Reusing, standardizing and merging terminological or ontological 
resources.
III. Terminology applications
* Applications of terminological resources
* Terminology in industrial and business settings
* Terminological tools for machine translation
* Terminology in natural language processing tools
* Terminology in e-government and sector standardization

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, via 
the Conference Submission System. To submit an abstract, go to the 
submission site (soon available) and select "new submission". 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 be decide to change the category of a 
paper before acceptance.

Complete papers will be submitted electronically. The extension of 
papers will be no longer than 16 pages (5000-6000 words). Papers that 
exceed this limit will be rejected without review. 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.
