From the reviews: "New Developments in Parsing Technology is a collection of papers based on contributions to the International workshop on Parsing Technology in the years 2000 and 2001. ... Collin's invited contribution is so outstanding that it alone makes it worthwhile to get hold of a copy of the book. Each of the selected workshop papers is a worthwhile read in itself ... ." (Stefan Riezler, Computational Linguistics, Vol. 32 (3), 2006)
Parsing can be defined as the decomposition of complex structures into their constituent parts, and parsing technology as the methods, the tools, and the software to parse automatically.
