==================================

GF, Grammatical Framework, is a multilingual grammar formalism
based on the idea of a shared abstract syntax and mappings between
the abstract syntax and concrete languages. GF has hundreds of users
all over the world. The summer school is a collaborative effort to
create grammars of new languages in GF and advanced multilingual GF
applications. The new grammars are added to the Resource Grammar
Library, which currently has 18 languages. Applications are parsing
and generation programs compiled from GF grammars and usable as
parts of programs written in other languages: e.g. Haskell, Java,
Python, and JavaScript. GF applications can also be run on Android
phones. Moreover, the school will address hybrid systems combining GF
with statistical machine translation (SMT).

Topics:    Introductory and Advanced Tutorials on GF, Type Theory, SMT,
               Parsing and Multilingual Application Development
