Collaborative Proposal: Workshop: Towards the Interoperability of Language Resources

该研讨会将于7月13日至15日在斯坦福大学与2007年LSA暑期研究所一起举行，将把语言学家、语言工程师和档案保管员聚集在一起，共同开发语言学的数字工具和服务。在互操作性方面，研讨会将以前两次广泛合作的势头为基础，评估和发展计算机辅助语言分析的最新技术(E-MELD（濒危语言数据电子元结构）和DTSL（语言学数字工具峰会）倡议。可互操作的档案和其他数字服务对于实现可持续、可访问的数字语言资源的愿景至关重要。为了确保数字语言资源的长期保存和可及性，需要一个协调一致的基础设施。该研讨会将鼓励开发人员协调现有工具的输出，并计划可扩展、模块化和可更新的新工具。该研讨会将促进语言工程师、现场语言学家和当地社区之间日益增长的合作，并促进工具的开发，以帮助语言分析、振兴和记录。这样做，我们解决了语言学网络基础设施发展的一个关键瓶颈。

This workshop, to be held July 13-15 at Stanford University in conjunction with the 2007 LSA Summer Institute, will bring linguists, language engineers, and archivists together to collaborate in the development of digital tools and services for linguistics. In focusing on interoperability, the workshop will build on the momentum of two previous broad collaborations to assess and develop the state of the art in computer-assisted linguistic analysis (the E-MELD (Electronic Metastructure for Endangered Languages Data) and DTSL (Digital Tools Summit in Linguistics) initiatives. Interoperable archives and other digital services are essential to realizing the vision of sustainable, accessible digital language resources. To ensure the long-term preservation and accessibility of digital language resources, a coordinated infrastructure is required. This workshop will encourage developers to coordinate outputs of existing tools and to plan new tools that are extensible, modular, and renewable. The workshop will facilitate the growing cooperation between language engineers, field linguists, and native communities and foster the development of tools to aid in language analysis, revitalization, and documentation. In so doing, we address a critical bottleneck in the development of cyberinfrastructure for linguistics.
