Formerly known as Journal of Robotic Vision ... just kidding, Andreas. Gerald Announcing a new journal for 1997 GRAMMARS Announcement and Call for Papers Aims and Scope: GRAMMARS is an international forum for the dissemination of high-level original research in the intersection between mathematical/computational linguistics and formal language theory. The journal is based on the fact that a certain gap exists between linguists (trying to find adequate formal tools for natural language description) and computer scientists (often unworried about the descriptive applicability of the generative devices they design). Not all linguists are acquainted with the new developments in pure formal language theory, as well as not all computer scientists know the concrete problems linguists deal with and the real needs they have. The aim of the journal is to bring both communities together and to provide a platform for discussion. Examples of papers fitting the scope of the journal are: those developing new generative devices potentially useful for natural language description, and those clarifying empirical linguistic facts in such a way that they become acceptable for formal language treatment. We are planning to launch 3 issues, appr. 300 pages, yearly, in March, July and November. The first issue will be available in March, 1997. In principle, the journal will be published by the Rovira i Virgili University (Tarragona, Spain), unless Kluwer Academic Publishers, which recently have shown a strong interest, will finally decide to publish it.
