Abstract Some recent studies in computational linguistics have aimed to take advantage of various cues presented by punctuation marks. This short survey is intended to summarise these research efforts and additionally, to outline a current perspective for the usage and functions of punctuation marks. We conclude by presenting an information-based framework for punctuation, influenced by treatments of several related phenomena in computational linguistics. Varol Akman is a professor of computer engineering at Bilkent University, Ankara, Turkey. From 1980 to 1985, he was a Fulbright scholar at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, New York, where he received a PhD degree in computer engineering. Prior to joining Bilkent in 1988, he held a senior researcher position with the Centrum voor Wiskunde en Informatica, Amsterdam, the Netherlands. His current research areas include artificial intelligence models of context, computational aspects of situation theory, and in general, language and philosophy.
