SCIENTIFIC PROGRAMME, Sunday, August 19, 1990
9.00 - 12.00, Extrapositional Session
PIV: Open Workshop on Textual and Lexical Resources
Organized by Don Walker.
(This workshop will examine recent activities, plans and possibilities
for collecting and exploiting massive text files, creating lexical data
and knowledge bases, and developing methods to reuse and share both
data and tools. Everyone is invited.)

PI: Computer Software - Property or Freeware?
Jon Bing.
(This lecture by Professor Bing from the Norwegian Research
Center for Computers and Law, University of Oslo, was invited in
response to demands for a discussion at COLING-90 of the legal aspects
of software development in a research-oriented environment.)
