This paper presents a principle-based parser that avoids the overgeneration problem by applying principles to descriptions of the structures, instead of the structures themselves. A structure for the input sentence is only constructed after its description has been found to satisfy all the principles.

The barrierhood of a node also depends on its context, in terms of L-marking and inheritance. Instead of making barrierhood a property of the nodes in syntactic structures, we define it to be a property of links in the grammar network. That is, certain links in the grammar network are classified as barriers. In Figure 1 , barrier links have a black ink-spot on them. Barrierhood is a property of these links, independent of the context. This definition of barrier is simpler than Chomsky's since it is context-free.
