列一下自然語言處理(NLP)這個小方向的：
會議(C):
ACL (Annual Meeting of the Association for Computational Linguistics)
NAACL (Annual Conference of the North American Chapter of Association for Computational Linguistics)
EMNLP (Empirical Methods in Natural Language Processing)
EACL (Annual Conference of the European Chapter of Association for Computational Linguistics)
COLING (International Conference on Computational Linguistics)
SIGKDD (ACM SIGKDD Conference on Knowledge Discovery and Data Mining)
SIGIR (ACM SIGIR Conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval)
WWW (International World Wide Web Conference)
期刊(J):
CL (Computational Linguistics)
TACL (Transactions of the Association for Computational Linguistics)
C(1-3)和J(1,2)沒得說，ACL下面的旗艦會議和期刊 (J(2)雖然比較年輕，但是主編是Micheal Collins大神，質量有保障!!)
C(4,5) 放在頂會的行列裏可能會有一些爭議，尤其是C(5)，感覺近年來paper質量下滑嚴重(?)
C(6-8) 基本都會有NLP相關的session或者research topic，所以也可以認爲是NLP方向的頂會
因爲NLP和data mining(DM)有重合的topic，所以有的NLPer也會選擇投DM方向的其他頂會/刊，這裏就不列出來了。
