Preface
This volume presents the proceedings of the Third International Sanskrit Computational Linguistics Symposium hosted by the University of Hyderabad, Hyderabad, India during January 15–17, 2009. The series of symposia on Sanskrit Computational Linguistics began in 2007. The first symposium was hosted by INRIA at Rocquencourt, France in October 2007 as a part of the joint collaboration between INRIA and the University of Hyderabad. This joint collaboration expanded both geographically as well as academically covering more facets of Sanskrit Computaional Linguistics, when the second symposium was hosted by Brown University, USA in May 2008. We received 16 submissions, which were reviewed by the members of the Program Committee. After discussion, nine of them were selected for presentation. These nine papers fall under four broad categories: four papers deal with the structure of P¯ an.ini’s As.t.¯ adhy¯ ay¯ı. Two of them deal with parsing issues, two with various aspects of machine translation, and the last one with the Web concordance of an important Sanskrit text. If we look retrospectively over the last two years, the three symposia in succession have seen not only continuity of some of the themes, but also steady growth of the community. As is evident, researchers from
