Abstract
The intent of this paper is to convey one idea central to the structure of a natural language parser currently under development, the notion of wait-and-see strategies. This notion will hopefully allow the recognition of the structure of natural language input by a process that is deterministic and "backupless", that can have strong expectations but still be immediately responsive to the actual structure of the input. The notion is also discussed as a paradigm for recognition processes in general.
