  Cormack (1992) proposed a framework for pronominal anaphora resolution. Her
proposal integrates focusing theory (Sidner et al.) and DRT (Kamp and Reyle).
We analyzed this methodology and adjusted it to the processing of Portuguese
texts. The scope of the framework was widened to cover sentences containing
restrictive relative clauses and subject ellipsis. Tests were conceived and
applied to probe the adequacy of proposed modifications when dealing with
processing of current texts.
