Abstract

In this paper we will motivate the design decisions for the architecture of the Eurotra system and its grammar formalism in terms of the intrinsic constraints of multilingual machine translation and the extrinsic requirements imposed by the specific organizational structure of the project. We will give an account of the state of implementation of the system to date and assess advantages and disadvantages of its framework in the light of the implementation.
