  abstract  = {We present a browser-based editor for simplifying English text.  Given an input
	sentence, the editor performs both syntactic and lexical simplification.  It
	splits a complex sentence into shorter ones, and suggests word substitutions in
	drop-down lists.  The user can choose the best substitution from the list, undo
	any inappropriate splitting, and further edit the sentence as necessary.  A
	significant novelty is that the system accepts a customized vocabulary list for
	a target reader population.  It identifies all words in the text that do not
	belong to the list, and attempts to substitute them with words from the list,
	thus producing a text tailored for the targeted readers.},
