28 February 2003, ACLC-ILLC Workshop

For both ACLC and ILLC understanding natural language is `core business', but hitherto contact between the two institutes has been limited. Recently several areas have been identified, where we would like to profit from each other's expertise. For example, the formal semanticists working on tense and aspect are very much interested in typology, and conversely functional linguists have become interested in formal models of discourse. During the afternoon, four speakers will introduce topics that might grow into areas of common research. Participants who want to discuss other such topics are most welcome to do so.
