In the summer of 2011, the idea of having a joint conference covering two ACL Special Interest Groups, namely SIGLEX and SIGSEM, was born. Traditionally, the SIGLEX has been concerned with issues of the lexicon and computational lexical semantics, while SIGSEM has been engaged with issues of computational modeling of semantics. The need for an umbrella conference on semantics was growing not only because of the many recent exciting developments in the field of computational linguistics, but also because of the growing number of shared tasks and workshops, of which many show points of contact with semantics in its various forms.
