The paper will try to identify the various concurrent factors which, in the last years, have contributed to the increasing attention paid to the issue of reusable linguistic resources for natural language processing. The role of various major Organisations (EEC, Council of Europe, DARPA, NEH, etc.) will be examined, taking into account the reasons which seem to have stimulated their active participation. The recognition of the need of reusable linguistic resources by various sectors of "automated linguistic data processing" will also be considered as a catalyzer for the recent trend towards the cooperation of various scientific and professional A. | h. ZAMPOLLI Towards Reusable Linguistic Resources Abstract 1. The paper will try to identify the various concurrent factors which in the last years have contributed to the increasing attention paid to the issue of reusable linguistic resources for natural language processing. The role of various major Organisations EEC Council of Europe DARPA NEH etc. will be examined taking into account the reasons which seem to have stimulated their active participation. The recognition of the need of reusable linguistic resources by various sectors of automated linguistic data processing will also be considered as a catalyzer for the recent trend towards the cooperation of various scientific and professional Associations ACL ALLC ACH etc. . 2. Various interpretations of the term reusability have been proposed. We shall consider the relationships and differences between - the feasibility of the utilization of existing repositories of linguistic information as potential sources for the construction of NLP Components - the feasibility of constructing new large linguistic knowledge bases explicitly designed for multifunctional uses in various research frameworks and development activities. In particular we shall examine the connections between various core aspects of the construction of reusable linguistic resources and - the general problems of the evaluation in the field of natural language processing both at the general level of shareability of the state-of-the-art knowledge and at the level of specific NLP systems or linguistic data collection - the design of standards at the level of representation formalisms and of the identification of linguistic units and description categories. 3. Examples will be taken by some of the various international projects nowadays underway in the field of lexica ET7 Acquilex Multilex Genelex The lexical Consortium etc. corpora European Network of Textual Corpora British National Corpus Data Collection Initiative etc. and standards Text Encoding .
