TAPoR will build a unique human and computing infrastructure
for text analysis across the country by establishing six regional
centers to form one national text analysis research portal.
This portal will be a gateway to tools for sophisticated analysis
and retrieval, along with representative texts for experimentation.
The local centers will include text research laboratories with
best-of-breed software and full-text servers that are coordinated
into a vertical portal for the study of electronic texts. Each
center will be integrated into its local research culture and,
thus, some variation will exist from center to center.
Announcing Version 1.0 of the TAPoR Portal
