Abstract

This chapter performs a review of the research work discussed in the previous chapters of the present volume. This review represents a summary of the outcomes of the research within the PRESEMT project. As a logical outcome, a set of key directions is identified for future work in order to further improve the MT methodology. A brief report of the most promising ones is provided in the second part of this chapter.
