Presentation
Knowledge engineering in general and ontologies in particular have revitalised terminology, and made it a key element for a great many applications essential to the digital age. Terminology opens up new perspectives for a broad spectrum of information processing: for terminology committees, document management, modelling, language policy, knowledge capitalization, knowledge representation, translation, the semantic web, etc. But all these new perspectives throw up fresh questions as to how language and concepts interact in terminology. Terminology, as an autonomous field of research, has become pluridisciplinary and draws on linguistics, language for special purposes (LSP), artificial intelligence and information sciences.
Target audience
The TOTh conferences aim to bring together all those involved in LSP, terminology and knowledge engineering, and more generally all persons interested in issues related to language and knowledge, be they in research, industry or other practical applications. Deadlines and other
Organization
The conference takes place every year at Annecy (France) on the first Thursday and Friday of June (3rd and 4th June 2010). A training session is organized the day before the conference proper (Wednesday 2nd June 2010). In addition to the academic papers, research by advanced graduate students and industrial applications figure prominently in the program. A keynote speaker, usually from another subject field but specializing in issues of language and thought, opens TOTh conferences.
