  • relate to any type of application and any subject and task domain
  • describe machine-tractable treatment of specific phenomena in any language
  • relate to knowledge resources and their acquisition and maintenance
  • be devoted to cross-linguistic work in applications and resource acquisition
  • present output and resource quality evaluation reports.
