5 Conclusion and Future Work
</SectionTitle>
    <Paragraph position="0"> We described PSTFS, a substrate for parallel processing of typed feature structures. PSTFS serves as an efficient programming environment for implementing parallel NLP systems. We have shown the feasibility and flexibility of our PSTFS through the implementation of two HPSG parsers.</Paragraph>
    <Paragraph position="1"> For the future, we are considering the use of our HPSG parser on PSTFS for a speech recognition system, a Natural Language Interface or Speech Machine Translation applications.</Paragraph>
