Background

The 2018 NLPL Winter School was co-located and partially overlapping with the NeIC All-Hands Meeting (AHM), which some NLPL team members attended. The NeIC meeting was held from January 29 to February 1, 2018, in the Norwegian mountain resort at Skeikampen.

Starting already after lunch on Monday, January 29, NLPL kicked off its winter school in E-Infrastructure and Scientific Computing for Nordic Natural Language Processing Research. The winter school had a duration of two days, i.e. ended with lunch on Wednesday, January 31. There were around 20–25 participants, where the majority came from the NLPL partner sites.

NLPL team members, associates at partner sites (e.g. doctoral and post-doctoral fellows, possibly also some MSc students), and other prospective users of the infrastructure were invited to attend; NLPL partners(i.e. members of the project team) had their cost of participation covered by the project.
