The Second International Workshop on Language Generation will be held at
Stanford University from July 8-10, immediately following the COLING
conference.  The workshop, organized by Doug Appelt and Ivan Sag is designed
to allow researchers working in the field of language generation to share
recent research results and discuss matters of importance to the field.
Topics of discussion for this workshop include the design of grammatical
formalisms for language generation, the role of planning and speech act
theory in language generation, the production of extended discourse, the
foundations for a theory of language generation, modeling the hearer's
knowledge and intentions, and producing coherent explanations of reasoning
and decision-making.  Linguists as well as artificial intelligence
researchers will participate in the workshop.

The workshop is being sponsored by a grant from the National Science
