    COMPUTER-SUPPORTED
    COLLABORATIVE LEARNING SERIES -- 2

    Designing for Learning in Networked Learning Environments is of interest to
    researchers and students, designers, educators, and industrial trainers
    across various disciplines including education, cognitive, social and
    educational psychology, didactics, computer science, linguistics and
    semiotics, speech communication, anthropology, sociology and design.
    Computer Support for Collaborative Learning (CSCL) is a genuinely
    interdisciplinary field that strives to create a better understanding of
    collaborative learning that is mediated by a diverse set of computational
    technologies. The theme of CSCL 2003 "Designing for Change in Networked
    Learning Environments" reflects a commitment to influence educational
    practice in times of the Internet. The contributions in this volume include
    discussions on knowledge building, designing and analysing group
    interaction, design of collaborative multimedia and 3D environments,
    computational modelling and analysis, software agents, and much more.

    Recent Advances in Example-Based Machine Translation

    Informationsforschung e.V. an der Universitt des Saarlandes,

    TEXT, SPEECH AND LANGUAGE TECHNOLOGY -- 21

    Recent Advances in Example-Based Machine Translation is of relevance to
    researchers and program developers in the field of Machine Translation and
    especially Example-Based Machine Translation, bilingual text processing and
    cross-linguistic information retrieval. It is also of interest to
    translation technologists and localisation professionals.
    Recent Advances in Example-Based Machine Translation fills a void, because
    it is the first book to tackle the issue of EBMT in depth. It gives a
    state-of-the-art overview of EBMT techniques and provides a coherent
    structure in which all aspects of EBMT are embedded. Its contributions are
    written by long-standing researchers in the field of MT in general, and
    EBMT in particular. This book can be used in graduate-level courses in
    machine translation and statistical NLP.
