Part 1 State of the art: language generation and explanation, K.McKeown and B.Swartout. Part 2 Linguistic approaches (in defence of a particular theory, formalism): can a parsing grammar be used for natural language generation? - the negative example of LFG, R.Block; the application of unification for syntactic generation in German, H.Horacek; concerning the logical component of a language generator, S.Dik. Part 3 Implementational issues: two approaches to natural language generation, G.Adorni; the production of spoken dialogue, G.Houghton and M.Pearson; natural language generation from plans, C.Mellish; an approach for creating structured text, N.Simonin. Part 4 Psychological issues: automatic and executive processing in semantic and syntactic planning - a dual process model of speech production, T.Harley; incremental production of referential noun-phrases by human-speakers, H.Schriefers and T.Pechmann. Part 5 Educational applications: natural languages are flexible tools - that's what makes them hard to explain, to learn and to use, M.Zock.
