NooJ 2026 International Conference
Naples, Italy
June 24-26, 2026
https://nooj2026.sciencescall.org/resource/page/id/2
*******************
Important dates:
*******************
Abstract submission: 31 January 2026
Notification of acceptance: 25 March 2026
Registration: until 13 April 2026
Conference dates: 24-26 June 2026
***********************************************
University of Naples "L'Orientale" and the NooJ association organize the 20th NooJ Conference in Naples, Italy from 24-26 June, 2026.
NooJ is a linguistic development environment that allows linguists to formalize several levels of linguistic phenomena: orthography and spelling; lexicons of simple words, multiword units and frozen expressions; inflectional, derivational and agglutinative morphology; local, constituent and dependency syntax; transformational grammars and semantic analysis. For each phenomenon, NooJ provides linguists with formal tools specifically adapted to facilitate the description, using the four types of Chomsky-Schützenberger formal grammars (regular, context-free, context-sensitive and unrestricted). This approach distinguishes NooJ from most computational linguistic frameworks which provide a single formalism.
NooJ is also a corpus processing tool, used in the digital humanities (in History, Literature, Psychology and Sociolinguistics) as it allows users to apply sophisticated linguistic resources to large corpora and build indices and concordances, annotate texts automatically, perform various statistical analyses, etc.
NooJ is freely available and linguistic modules can already be freely downloaded for over 30 languages, see https://nooj.univ-fcomte.fr
A Web demo is available for English, French, Spanish and Ukrainian at: https://webnooj.univ-fcomte.fr
******************************
The conference intends to:
******************************
* give NooJ users and researchers in Linguistics, Computational Linguistics and in the Digital Humanities the opportunity to meet and share their experience as developers, researchers and teachers;
* present to NooJ users the latest linguistic resources and NLP applications developed for/with NooJ, its latest functionalities, as well as its future developments;
* offer researchers and graduate students an advanced tutorial dedicated to the automatic transformational analysis/generation of texts.
*******************
Topics of interest:
*******************
* Lexical resources
* Computational morphology
* Syntactic analysis
* Semantic analysis
* Linguistic-based NLP applications
***************
Submission:
***************
We invite the submission of abstracts in English until 31 January 2026. The abstracts should contain the title, name and email of the author(s) and their institutions.

CALL FOR PAPERS
The Second Workshop on Holocaust Testimonies as Language Resources
(HTRes-2026), a pre-conference workshop at LREC2026
Date: 11 May 2026
Location: Palma de Mallorca, Spain
Workshop web page: https://www.clarin.eu/HTRes2026
Submission Deadline: 20 February 2026
Submission link: https://softconf.com/lrec2026/HTRes2026/
Holocaust testimonies serve as a bridge between survivors and history’s
darkest chapters, providing a connection to the profound experiences of
the past. Testimonies stand as the primary source of information that
describes the Holocaust, offering first-hand accounts and personal
narratives of those who experienced it. The majority of testimonies are
captured in an oral format, as survivors vividly explain and share their
personal experiences and observations from that time period.
Transforming Holocaust testimonies into a machine-processable digital
format can be a difficult task owing to the unstructured nature of the
text. The creation of accessible, comprehensive, and well-annotated
Holocaust testimony collections is of paramount importance to our
society. These collections empower researchers and historians to
validate the accuracy of socially and historically significant
information, enabling them to share critical insights and trends derived
from these data.
The primary objective of this workshop is to explore how various
theories, techniques, and tools from corpus linguistics, natural
language processing, and digital humanities can contribute to the
examination, analysis, dissemination, and preservation of Holocaust
testimonies and other Holocaust-related documents.
The workshop is supported by CLARIN and EHRI.
Please find full details of the call for papers at the workshop web page
at https://www.clarin.eu/HTRes2026. The main conference website is at
https://lrec2026.info/ .

*** First Call for Industry Track Papers ***
International Conference on Software and Systems Reuse, Product Lines,
and Configuration (VARIABILITY 2026)
29 September - 2 October 2026, 5* St. Raphael Resort and Marina
Limassol, Cyprus
https://conf.researchr.org/home/variability-2026
The VARIABILITY conference series brings together the communities previously served by
ICSR, SPLC, and VaMoS, forming a unified venue for research on variability, configuration,
customization, and related disciplines in software and systems engineering.
The Industry Track of VARIABILITY 2026 offers a platform for practitioners, researchers,
and technology leaders to share practical experiences in industrial settings with reuse,
variability management, configuration, and product line engineering across software and
systems. Building on the industrial tracks of SPLC, VaMoS, and ICSR, this track bridges
research and practice by showcasing how variability, reuse, and product line strategies are
being applied and developed in today’s fast-changing industrial environments.
Software systems are becoming increasingly configurable, data-driven, and AI-enabled
(e.g., using foundation models), while also integrating advanced technologies such as
quantum computing. This growing complexity calls for balancing flexibility, reuse, and
quality amid pressures from emerging technologies and sustainability objectives. The
Industry Track welcomes submissions that demonstrate how these challenges are
addressed in real-world settings, whether through success stories, lessons learned, or
reflections on failures that yielded valuable insights.
We especially encourage submissions that demonstrate how variability management,
reuse, and configuration approaches are being applied or reimagined in industrial settings,
including through AI, digital twins, large language (LLMs) and foundation models, quantum
computing, and cyber-physical systems.
The industry track aims to:
• Showcase practical experiences from industrial settings using variability, reuse, or
configuration techniques.
• Exchange insights between industry practitioners and researchers.
• Identify new industrial challenges and opportunities for future research collaboration.
• Share tools, processes, or organizational approaches that improve adaptability,
scalability, and efficiency.
Topics of Interest
We welcome experience reports, case studies, and position papers on any of the topics
covered by the VARIABILITY conference. The detailed list of topics can be found on the
conference website (https://conf.researchr.org/track/variability-2026/variability-2026-papers#C…).
In addition to these topics, the industry track welcomes papers also on:
Industrial Applications
• Variability and reuse in AI, cyber-physical systems, robotics, automotive, aerospace,
quantum computing, etc.
• Sustainable technologies for variation and sustainable software reuse approaches
• Human, organizational, and social aspects of variable systems and software
