For the past 23 years, the European Summer School in Logic, Language <br>and Information (ESSLLI) has been organized every year by the <br>Association for Logic, Language and Information (FoLLI) in different <br>sites around Europe. The main focus of ESSLLI is on the interface <br>
between linguistics, logic and computation.<br><br>ESSLLI offers foundational, introductory and advanced courses, as well <br>as workshops, covering a wide variety of topics within the three areas <br>of interest: Language and Computation, Language and Logic, and Logic <br>
and Computation. Previous summer schools have been highly successful, <br>attracting up to 500 students from Europe and elsewhere. The school <br>has developed into an important meeting place and forum for discussion <br>
for students and researchers interested in the interdisciplinary study <br>of Logic, Language and Information. During two weeks, around 50 <br>courses and 10 workshops are offered to the attendants, each of 1.5 <br>hours per day during a five days week, with up to seven parallel <br>
sessions. ESSLLI also includes a student session (papers and posters <br>by students only, 1.5 hour per day during the two weeks) and four <br>evening lectures by senior scientists in the covered areas.<br><br>In 2011, ESSLLI will held in Ljubljana, Slovenia and will be organized <br>
by the Slovenian Language Technologies Society (SDJT), the Jožef <br>Stefan Institute (IJS) and The Faculty of Mathematics and Physics <br>(FMF) in Ljubljana, Slovenia. Chair of the Program Committee is Makoto <br>Kanazawa (National Institute of Informatics, Japan), and Chair of the <br>
Organizing Committee is Darja Fišer (The University of Ljubljana, <br>Slovenia). To contact the ESSLLI 2011 Organizing Committee, write to: <a href="mailto:esslli2011@gmail.com">esslli2011@gmail.com</a> <br>.<br><br>*Summer School Programme*<br>
