Daniel Dennett argues that without language there is no consciousness, there is no self, and thus animals and baby are not conscious. Very interesting.

The Extensible HyperText Markup Language, or XHTML, is a markup language that has the same expressive possibilities as HTML, but a stricter, more verbose syntax. Whereas HTML is an application of SGML, a very flexible markup language, XHTML is an applicat

The goal of this research project is to investigate efficient graph-based representations of text, and explore the application of ranking models based on such graph structures to natural language processing tasks. We bring together methods from computational linguistics and graph-theory, and combine them into a suite of innovative approaches that will improve and ultimately solve difficult problems in natural language processing. Specifically, we are currently working on the application of graph centrality algorithms to problems such as word sense disambiguation, text summarization and keyword extraction.
CSL provides an easy-to-use but feature-rich XML language to describe bibliographic and citation formatting. It has been developed alongside CiteProc. Analogous to BibTeX .bst files or the binary equivalents in proprietary applications like Endnote, CSL is open, international-ready, and designed on a solid foundation that yields a language that is easy-to-use, while able to flexibly-but-reliably format bibliographies and citations for a wide variety of fields.
This stuff is in English although my native language is German. This is an explanation why. It goes along the roads of ELFE but concentrates on my personal view. It would be obviously pointless to write this in English as well, so I'm switching to German here.
Clojure is a dynamic programming language that targets the Java Virtual Machine. It is designed to be a general-purpose language, combining the approachability and interactive development of a scripting language with an efficient and robust infrastructure
The ANTLR 3 Eclipse Plugin helps you develop ANTLR 3 grammars inside Eclipse. It currently provides a project nature, a label decorator, a builder, and problem markers for ANTLR errors.
