Call For Special Session Proposals

Speech Prosody 2010, the fifth international conference on speech prosody,
invites proposals for special sessions addressing exciting current topics in
the science and technology of spoken language prosody.  Special sessions may
address any topic among the key topic areas of Speech Prosody 2010
(http://speechprosody2010.org/), or a topic that is too new to be included
in the standard topic list.

Proposals for special sessions should include the names and affiliations of
the organizers, an abstract describing the topic of the special session, and
a list of six to twelve potential authors doing current research in the
topic area.  Proposals should be submitted by e-mail to
