ABSTRACT
We are going to present in this document a generic approach for lingware systems reuse. This approach is based on reverse engineering technique in order to wrap up an existing lingware system with web services. This approach permits the reuse of lingware systems regardless of programming languages, development environments and the structures of linguistic resources. In order to preserve the interoperability between the reused lingware systems, the proposed approach performs the unification and the standardization of exchanged linguistic data using the Natural Language Processing (NLP) standards and consensus. Doing so, we facilitate the integration and the composition of lingware services in order to create a new application that treats several linguistic levels. In order to consolidate the given approach, we developed the LIngware Reuse Environment (LIRE). A practical experiment was carried out using LIRE environment on an automatic application summary of Arabic texts.
