LogonTop

Overview

These pages, over time, will provide documentation on the [http://www.emmtee.net LOGON] machine translation infrastructure. The system is comprised of several independent components, each with its own set of parameters and quirks. While access to LOGON technology at present (i.e. as of October 2005) is restricted to consortium members and cooperating partners, we expect to release large parts of the system under an open-source license in the first half of 2007.

Table of Contents

Following is a list of topics for which documentation exists (or should be ported from LOGON-internal workspace postings). Feel free to add additional materials, but please make sure to create adequate wiki names for new pages, all prefixed with Logon.

• LogonInstallation: System Requirements, Download and Installation Notes

• LogonMrs: Background on the Specific Use of the MRS Formalism in LOGON

• LogonProcessing: Documentation of Various Batch Processing Facilities
