The Cross-Language Evaluation Forum (CLEF) promotes R&D in multilingual information access by (i) developing an infrastructure for the testing, tuning and evaluation of information retrieval systems operating on European languages in both monolingual and cross-language contexts, and (ii) creating test-suites of reusable data which can be employed by system developers for benchmarking purposes.

Registration for CLEF 2008 will close on May 15.

The CLEF 2007 Workshop was held 19-21 September, Budapest, Hungary, in conjunction with ECDL 2007 and the Working Notes are now accessible online.
