Evaluation of a parallel chart parser
Ralph Grishman, Mahesh Vinayak Chitrao · 1988
We describe a parallel implementation of a chart parser for a shared-memory multiprocessor. The speed-ups obtained with this parser have been measured for a number of small natural-language grammars. For the largest of these, part of an operational question-answering system, the parser ran 5 to 7 times faster than the serial version.
