CALL FOR PAPERS
SLATE - 10th Symposium on Languages, Applications and Technologies
1st and 2nd July 2021
ESMAD, Polytechnic of Porto, Portugal
http://slate-conf.org/

##################################
CONTEXT
##################################
We often use languages. First, to communicate between ourselves. Later, to communicate with computers. And more recently, with the advent of networks, we found a way to make computers communicate between themselves. All these different forms of communication use languages, different languages, but they still share many similarities. In SLATE, we are interested in discussing these languages, organized in three main tracks: HHL TRACK (Human-Human Languages), HCL Track (Human-Computer Languages), and CCL Track (Computer-Computer Languages)

We encourage everyone to submit novel and innovative work in areas including but not limited to:

HHL TRACK (Human-Human Languages)
- Computational morphology, syntax, and semantics
- Machine translation and tools for computer-assisted translation
- Computational terminology and lexicography
- Speech synthesis and understanding
- Information retrieval, extraction, and automatic question answering
- Corpora linguistics
- NLP system and resource evaluation
- Public tools and resources for NLP
- Ontologies and knowledge representation
- Statistical Methods applied to NLP
- Language teaching support tools
- Sentiment/Polarity Analysis
- Summarization

HCL Track (Human-Computer Languages)
- Programming language concepts, methodologies, and tools
- Language and Grammars, design, formal specification, and quality
- Domain-Specific Languages design and implementation
- Programming, refactoring, and debugging environments
- Dynamic and static analysis: Program Slicing
- Program Comprehension
- Compilation and interpretation techniques
- Code generation and optimization
- Program visualization and animation
- Programming languages teaching methods and tools
- Dynamic languages
- Cross-fertilization of different technological spaces (modelware, grammarware, ontologies, etc)
- Block-based programming
- High-level visual languages for low-code development

CCL Track (Computer-Computer Languages)
- IoT data protocols
- Semantic data description frameworks
- Semantic Web languages
- Ontology engineering
- XML Databases and Big Data
- Publishing and document storage formats
- HTML5 and web formatting
- Industry-specific XML based standards
- Web APIs and service marketplaces
- Service-Oriented Architectures
- E-learning systems, standards, and interoperability
- Data and graph visualization languages
- Computer Intelligence and Chatbots
- Computer structures - PaaS, SaaS, IaaS
- Pervasive Data Languages
- Multi-agent systems

SLATE PUBLICATION POLICY
##################################
All papers must be original and not simultaneously submitted to another journal or conference.
The following paper categories are welcome:

- Full papers — 8 to 14 pages, presented in 20+5 minutes, complete work, including a validation or discussion;
- Short papers — 6 to 8 pages, presented in 10+5 minutes, ongoing work, well anchored in the literature, but not yet fully validated;
- Lightning talks - no publication, presented in 3 to 5 minutes, research ideas or work that has just started.

More details:

- Both full and short papers should be written in English, using the OASIcs template. Please refer to our website (http://slate-conf.org/2021/submissions) for details about the document preparation.
- Submissions will be managed through the EasyChair online system: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=slate2021.
- All accepted papers will be published as post-proceedings through OASIcs - OpenAccess Series in Informatics​ — in open access mode, under an ISBN reference and a DOI, and will thus be indexed by services such as Scopus and DBLP.
- In addition, the authors of selected papers will be invited to submit extended versions to appropriate journals (more information
will be posted later on the conference website).
