TINLAP-3 POSITION PAPERS AVAILABLE FROM ACL The Association for Computational Linguistics has just published the Position Papers prepared for TINLAP-3, the Third Conference on Theoretical Issues in Natural Language Processing. TINLAP-3 was organized by Yorick Wilks and held at New Mexico State University, 7-9 January 1987. There were sessions on "Words and World Representations," "Unification and the New Grammatism," "Connectionist and Other Parallel Approaches to Natural Language Processing," "Discourse Theory and Speech Acts," "Why Has Theoretical NLP Made so Little Progress?," "Formal Versus Common Sense Semantics," "Reference: The Interaction of Language and the World," "Metaphor," "Natural Language Generation." Many of the papers in this proceedings were revised by their authors following the meeting, so it is different from the one distributed there. The price is $20 for ACL personal and student members, $30 for individual nonmembers, and $40 for institutions. Copies are available from the ACL Office: D.E. Walker (ACL), Bell Communications Research, 435 South Street - MRE 2A379, Morristown, NJ 07960-1961, USA.
