Since natural language parsing is a computationally intensive task, the parallel parsing of natural language seems a promising choice. This work describes both the Eu-PAGE meta-compiler for the Eurotra formalism, a tool that automatically generates parallel natural language parsers, and the Dialogos parser, a parallel parser for the Greek language generated by Eu-PAGE. Parallel parsers generated by Eu-PAGE are based on finite state machines, employ coarse grained parallelism, and are portably implemented on top of two parallel software platforms: PVM and Orchid. Orchid uses light weight processes as the basic unit of parallelism, enhanced with advanced operating system facilities. The collected experimental results so far demonstrate satisfactory speed-ups of the parallel implementations compared to the sequential one. |
