ABSTRACT = {This paper presents a direct implementation of Government-Binding theory in a parser for German, which faithfully models the modular structure of the theory. The modular design yields a flexible environment, in which it is possible to define and test various versions of principles and parameters. The several modules of linguistic theory and the parser proper are interleaved in parallel fashion for early elimination of ungrammatical structures. Efficient processing of global constraints is made possible by the concept of licensing, and the use of tree indexing techniques.}
