Title: Evaluation of a parallel chart parser. Project Memo

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:7055491

A parallel implementation of a chart parser is described for a shared-memory multiprocessor. The speedups obtained with this parser were measured for a number of small natural-language grammars. For the largest of these, part of an operational question-answering system, the parser ran 5 to 7 times faster than the serial version.
