Furthermore, hardware and software integrity, dependencies, and compatibility are critical components that often impede technology migration. While many open source tools attempt to mitigate these issues, they do not always address specific design needs and tailored-process that Government organizations must adhere to. This paper addresses the need for a common document processing research vehicle through which institutions can develop and share research-related software and applications across academic, business, and Government domains.}, author = {Chen,Kevin and Jaeger,Stefan and Zhu,Guangyu and David Doermann} }
