Like its predecessors, Amstelogue '99 aims at bringing together researchers from different fields on the topic of semantics and pragmatics of dialogue. The second theme, Dialogue Systems, covers e.g. knowledge representation for multi-agent interaction, dialogue management in practical implementations, semantics and pragmatics of natural language in automated dialogue systems. We will attempt to publish a selection of the workshop papers as a special issue of the Journal of Semantics.
All locations are in the city-centre.
Amsterdam is not very large and any centrally located hotel is within half an hour's walk of the workshop locations. You will find that the tourist season has already started in Amsterdam, and that it is very very difficult to find a room. So if you decide to come to Amstelogue, and you are not one of the four invited speakers, then arrange this as quickly as possible, yourself.
