In fact, in the last ten years, computational linguistics has rapidly increased its influence not only at the scientific but also at the application and industrial levels.", | |

The Italian National Research Council and I personally are honoured and pleased because this is the first meeting of the European Chapter and because it is taking place in Italy. Choosing this location means that the European scientific community has appreciated the research work carried out in Italy during these past years. Our scientists feel especially proud on this occasion, and I am sure that they will derive from this meeting a powerful encouragement to work even harder than before.", | |

In this pioneering action, the University of Pisa and the National Research Council have collaborated closely, and I am honoured to mention Professor Faedo who had the vision, the will to pursue it, and the power to realize it, first as a mathematician, then as Rector of the University of Pisa, and finally as the President of the National Research Council.", | |

Rather the Council has a special role inside the world of the public research institutions in Italy. Its commitment is to realize a harmonious integration of the government's objectives with those of the scientific bodies, in particular with the research carried out in our universities. Within this general framework and this specific commitment, the National Research Council is particularly interested in research projects that have the following primary characteristics: (a) involving scientists from different institutions, (b) attracting international attention, and (c) having high significance for human society, for the progress and welfare of people. Now, computational linguistics, and this meeting in particular, stresses all three of these characteristics. So I am particularly glad to thank you for your attention and to give you my best wishes for the full success of this conference.", | |
