Hi Hieu,

First a compile:
./bjam --max-kenlm-order=10 --git --prefix=/path/moses/mosesdecoder/
--with-giza=/path/mgiza/mgizapp/inst/
--with-xmlrpc-c=/path/moses/mosesdecoder/opt/
--with-boost=/path/moses/mosesdecoder/opt/
--with-cmph=/path/moses/mosesdecoder/opt/
-j 20

then, a copy:
cp mgiza/mgizapp/inst/bin/* moses/mosesdecoder/instdir/bin/
cp mgiza/mgizapp/inst/lib/* moses/mosesdecoder/instdir/lib/
cp mgiza/mgizapp/inst/scripts/* moses/mosesdecoder/instdir/bin/

With which another copy appears to be needed to use Moses' symal:
cp
moses/mosesdecoder/symal/bin/gcc-4.8/release/link-static/threading-multi/symal
moses/mosesdecoder/bin/symal

Therefore, even if the path to mgiza is provided (--with-giza=/path/mgiza/m
gizapp/inst/), some copying and updated appear to be needed (see also
http://www.statmt.org/moses/?n=Moses.ExternalTools#ntoc3).

ACL 2016 FIRST CONFERENCE ON MACHINE TRANSLATION (WMT16)

Featuring shared tasks on translation, evaluation, automated
post-editing and document alignment.

11-12th August 2016, in conjunction with ACL 2016 in Berlin, Germany


http://www.statmt.org/wmt16/

*** CALL FOR PAPERS ***

We invite the submission of scientific papers on topics related to MT.
Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

* word-based, phrase-based, syntax-based SMT
* using comparable corpora for SMT
* incorporating linguistic information into SMT
* decoding
* system combination and selection
* error analysis
* manual and automatic methods for evaluating MT
* quality estimation of MT
* scaling MT to very large data sets
* neural networks in MT

SHARED TASKS

The workshop will feature ten shared tasks:

* Translation tasks

* News

* IT-domain

* Biomedical

* Multimodal

* Pronoun

* Evaluation tasks

* Metrics

* Quality estimation

* Tuning

* Other tasks

* Automatic post-editing

* Bilingual document alignment
The tasks have been announced separately and more information is
available on the workshop website.

PAPER SUBMISSION INFORMATION

Submissions will consist of regular full papers of 6-10 pages, plus
additional pages for references, formatted following the ACL 2016
guidelines. In addition, shared task participants will be invited to
submit short papers (4-6 pages) describing their systems or their
evaluation metrics. Both submission and review processes will be
handled electronically.

We encourage individuals who are submitting research papers to
evaluate their approaches using the training resources provided by
this workshop and past workshops, so that their experiments can be
repeated by others using these publicly available corpora.

IMPORTANT DATES

Paper submissions:

Paper submission deadline: May 8th, 2016
Notification of acceptance: June 5th, 2016
Camera-ready deadline: June 22nd, 2016

Workshop in Berlin following ACL: August 11-12th, 2016
