Abstract

Further increases in society's reliance on computing appear inevitable. An important role of computing will be in customizing textual information from the flood of available text to meet the unique needs of individuals. Information customization services will likely run on relatively powerful computers dedicated to individual users, as exemplified by work-stations.The LEARN project is a Computer Aided Language Learning (CALL) system that serves (1) as a demonstration of an information customization service likely to run on the personal workstations of tomorrow's electronically networked world, and (2) as a pragmatically oriented foundation for research on semantically based word sense disambiguation.
