Abstract
Efficient software infrastructures for the design and implementation of Intelligent Information Systems (IIS) are very important, especially in the area of intelligent NLP-based systems. Recently several approaches have been proposed in literature. However, the emphasis is usually centred on the integration of heterogeneous linguistic processors and the problem of the representation of linguistic data in vivo is left in the shadow. In this paper an object oriented architecture for a NLP-based IIS devoted to information extraction tasks will be discussed. An application of this model to a distributed document categorisation framework, employed within an existing system, TREVI [9], will be discussed as a relevant case study.
