WP3 addresses the need for delivering supporting services to the various stakeholders that will enable the adoption of the infrastructure and will empower its sustainability. The services provided target all stakeholders that want to adopt the infrastructure for new horizontal or vertical applications, or to provide content and/or services for integration in existing or future applications.

WP4 is about collecting research communities’ requirements relevant to TDM. Through an iterative design process and a close interaction to a number of research communities, activities in this WP will: • identify typical use cases and applications; • record and chart the profiles of end users/researchers who are involved in or use TDM;

WP5 formalizes the text mining infrastructure interoperability specifications and promotes them for adoption and exploitation outside the project’s boundaries. It is based on existing content provision APIs/guidelines, existing architectures for service/language resources integration (UIMA, GATE), protocols and standards from the CLARIN ESFRI infrastructure.
