ISLE (Antonio
Zampolli)
The ISLE project is funded for two years by the NSF and the EC, as part
of a joint program Multilingual
Information Access and Management. This program is `intended to further the knowledge
required to build information systems that operate in multiple languages; to provide the
technologies required for their application in a number of social and organizational contexts;
and to demonstrate the validity of the approaches chosen.' An ISLE workshop was held at LREC-2,
on Meta-Descriptions and Annotation Schemas for
Multimodal/Multimedia Language Resources. US-ISLE includes a Spoken Language
Group. [NSF award]
