Bradford Book, 1995. — 549 p.
The chapters in this book represent the outcome of a research workshop held at the Park Hotel Fiorelle, Sperlonga, 16- 20 May 1988. Twenty-five participants gathered in this small coastal village in Italy , where the Emperor Tiberius kept a Summer house, to discuss psycholinguistic and computational issues in speech and natural-language processing.
The workshop itself would not have been possible without the very generous financial support of British Telecom International, who agreed not only to the funding of the 1988 meeting but also to the funding of further meetings of the workshop in subsequent years. Special thanks are due to John Matthews at BTI and Fred Stentiford at British Telecom Research Laboratories. Additional funding was provided by the American Association for Artificial Intelligence.
The original idea to run a research workshop in Italy on cognitive models of speech processing arose during a conversation one wet and windy night in Edinburgh with Anne Cutler, who was attending a linguistics conference at the university and simultaneously bemoaning the weather. The organization of this workshop would not have been possible without Anne's encouragement and support, as well as that of Ellen Bard and Richard Shillcock.
