This paper presents a taxonomy of previous work on infrastructures, architectures and development environments for representing and processing Language Resources (LRs), corpora, and annotations. This classification is then used to derive a set of requirements for a Software Architecture for Language Engineering (SALE). The analysis shows that a SALE should address common problems and support typical activities in the development, deployment, and maintenance of LE software. The results will be used in the next phase of construction of an infrastructure for LR production, distribution, and access. 1. Introduction This paper reports work following from that discussed in the Distributing and Accessing Language Resources workshop at the previous conference in this series (LREC-1 1998; http://www.dcs.shef.ac.uk/ hamish/dalr/). The paper addresses the provision of software infrastructure for research and development of language resources and language processing software. It presents a wide...
