Abstract :
A class of processors is introduced with instruction sets that are specialised for parsing. The types of instructions required to parse regular expressions and context free grammars are identified. Possible implementations of parser instruction set computers in the implementation of transducers are discussed. Two experimental parsing instruction set computers intended for text retrieval are described.
