| Abstract | eScience - enhanced science - is a new paradigm of scientific work andresearch. In the humanities, eScience environments can be helpful inestablishing new workflows and lifecycles of scientific data. WebLicht is suchan eScience environment for linguistic analysis, making linguistic tools andresources available network-wide. Today, most digital language resources andtools (LRT) are available by download only. This is inconvenient for someonewho wants to use and combine several tools because these tools are normally notcompatible with each other. To overcome this restriction, WebLicht makes thefunctionality of linguistic tools and the resources themselves available viathe internet as web services. In WebLicht, several kinds of linguistic toolsare available which cover the basic functionality of automatic and incrementalcreation of annotated text corpora. To make use of the more than 70 tools andresources currently available, the end user needs nothing more than just acommon web browser. |
