Terminology and Artificial Intelligence_ (TIA) _2015_ will highlight 
the close connection between multilingual terminology, ontologies, and 
the representation of specialized knowledge. Knowledge, as regarded in 
Terminology, is something more complex than a simple hierarchy or a 
thesaurus-like structure. In this sense, ontologies, understood as a 
shared conceptualization of a domain that can be communicated between 
people and/or systems, are better suited for accounting for 
multilinguality and contextual constraints. The link between Terminology 
and knowledge representation has been widely acknowledged with the 
advent of multilingual ontologies.  This is particularly relevant since 
today’s networked society has generated an increasing number of contexts 
where multilingualism challenges current knowledge representation 
methods and techniques. To meet these challenges, it is necessary to 
deal with semantics since information can be organized, presented, and 
searched, based on meaning and not just text. Ideally, this would mean 
that language-independent specialized knowledge could be accessed across 
different natural languages. There is thus the urgent need for 
high-quality multilingual knowledge resources that are able to bridge 
communication barriers, and which can be linked and shared. Such issues 
can only be successfully addressed with creative collaborative solutions 
within disciplines, such as knowledge engineering, terminology, ontology 
engineering, cognitive sciences, corpus lexicology, and computational 
linguistics. Accordingly, the TIA 2015 Conference will provide a forum 
for interdisciplinary research that focuses on the intersection of 
different disciplines dealing with terminology, multilingualism, 
lexicology, ontology, and knowledge representation. Papers may address 
both theoretical questions and methodological aspects on these issues, 
as well as interdisciplinary approaches developed to facilitate 
convergence and co-operation in terminological aspects of importance to 
an increasingly multilingual society. TIA 2015 solicits both regular 
papers (8 pages), which present significant work, and short papers (4 
pages), which typically present work in progress or a smaller, focused 
contribution.

Regardless of the language of the paper( English, Spanish, or French), 
all paper presentations will be in English. The submission deadline 
is June 30.

See the conference webpage for more specific submission details.
