Abstract

The analysis phase in an indirect, transfer and global approach to machine translation is studied. The analysis conducted can be described as exhaustive (meaning with backtracking), depth-first and strategically and heuristically driven, while the grammar used is an augmented context free grammar. Thr problem areas, being pattern matching, ambiguities, forward propagation, checking for correctness and backtracking, are highlighted. Established results found in the literature are employed whenever adaptable, while suggestions are given otherwise.
