Abstract

This is a report about the successful development of a complex natural language understanding system. It describes the difficulties that were faced when planning, implementing, and finishing this project. After outlining the planned proceeding, it is described what really happened during the realization, in other words: the problems expected are compared to the problems experienced. Finally, those topics and details are discussed which were helpful and thus responsible for the success of the project, and experiences transferable to other projects are emphasized.
