+    UIMA stands for Unstructured Information Management Architecture and is a component 
+    architecture and software framework implementation for the analysis of unstructured 
+    content like text, video and audio data. Unstructured information represents the largest, 
+    most current and fastest growing source of information available to businesses and governments.
+   </p>
+                                                <p>
+	The motivation to develop such a framework was to build a common platform for unstructured analytics, 
+	to foster reuse of analysis components and to reduce duplication of analysis development. 
+	The pluggable architecture of UIMA allows to easily plug-in your own analysis components and 
+	combine them together with others. A full analysis task of a solution using unstructured analytics 
+	like search or government intelligence applications is often not a 
+	monolithic thing but a multi-stage process where different modules need to build on each other 
+	to get a powerful analysis chain. In some cases also annotators from different specialized vendors 
+	may need to work together to produce the results needed. 
+    The UIMA application interested in such analysis results does not need to know the details of how annotators 
+    work together to create the results. The UIMA framework take care of the integration and orchestration 
+    of multiple annotators.
+   </p>
+                                                <p>
+	So the major goal of UIMA is to transform unstructured information to structured 
+	information by orchestrating analysis engines to detect entities or relations and thus to build the 
+	bridge between the unstructured and the structured world.
+   </p>

+	 There are lots of use cases where UIMA may be applicable. One of the major ones are search applications. 
+	 Within search applications, the unstructured content that is available mainly as text in various kinds 
+	 must be processed and analyzed to be searchable. To obtain a powerful search application, the text 
+	 content must be analyzed to get the document language followed by language dependent linguistic 
+	 processing such as tokenization, lemmatization and part of speech detection. After these steps a 
+	 more sophisticated analysis like entity detection and relation detection between entities can be done. 
+	 For all these analysis steps UIMA and UIMA components can be used.
+   </p>
+                                                <p>
+     Another important use case is business or government intelligence. For example, UIMA analysis is used 
+     to extract structured information from car repair reports.  This data is then used for quality feed-back 
+     and problem early warning systems.
+   </p>
+                                                <p>
+     Other possible solutions where UIMA can be used for are the analsyis of call center notes to detect product 
+     problems and customer issues or a public image monitoring solution to find out how others for example in internet
+     forums or press releases think about my product or company.

+	 To get started with UIMA, you first have to install the Apache UIMA release package. 
+	 The packages are available at the UIMA <a href="downloads.html">download page</a> in different data formats for different platforms. 
+	 To install UIMA, download the perferred packages and unzip the binary distribution package to a target directory of your choice. 
+	 After unzipping the package, create an UIMA_HOME environment variable that points to the target 
+	 directory where you have unzipped the release package. If you haven't already set a JAVA_HOME variable, 
+	 create a JAVA_HOME environment variable that points to a JDK (Java Development Kit) of your choice. UIMA requires at least a 
+	 Java level 1.4 to run. For more details about the supported Java versions, please refer to the README document of the
+	 release package.
+   </p>
+                                                <p>
+     If you want to have the UIMA script files in the PATH environment variable of your system you additionally have to add 
+     $UIMA_HOME/bin (or for Windows %UIMA_HOME%\bin) to your PATH settings.
+   </p>
+                                                <p>
+     Now the installation of UIMA is finished and all the tooling should work properly. 
+     To use the provided examples you have to perform an additional step to 
+     adjust the examples to your UIMA installation directory. To do that, just run the 
+     <code>adjustExamplePaths.sh</code> (or for Windows .bat) script in the <code>bin</code> subdirectory of your UIMA installation.

+     The tool can run UIMA analysis components (also know as annotators) on a given set of text documents 
+     and shows the result of the analysis run at the end.

+ <body>
+  <section name="Getting Started: UIMA Examples">
+   <p>
+	 The "Getting Started: UIMA Examples" guide should help you to understand what UIMA is, 
+	 what it can be used for, and how you can use it. You will learn, after a short UIMA overview, 
+	 how to install the UIMA release package and how run the UIMA analysis example.
+   </p>
+
+  <subsection name="What Is UIMA">
+
+   <p>
+    UIMA stands for Unstructured Information Management Architecture and is a component 
+    architecture and software framework implementation for the analysis of unstructured 
+    content like text, video and audio data. Unstructured information represents the largest, 
+    most current and fastest growing source of information available to businesses and governments.
+   </p>
+   <p>
+	The motivation to develop such a framework was to build a common platform for unstructured analytics, 
+	to foster reuse of analysis components and to reduce duplication of analysis development. 
+	The pluggable architecture of UIMA allows to easily plug-in your own analysis components and 
+	combine them together with others. A full analysis task of a solution using unstructured analytics 
+	like search or government intelligence applications is often not a 
+	monolithic thing but a multi-stage process where different modules need to build on each other 
+	to get a powerful analysis chain. In some cases also annotators from different specialized vendors 
+	may need to work together to produce the results needed. 
+    The UIMA application interested in such analysis results does not need to know the details of how annotators 
+    work together to create the results. The UIMA framework take care of the integration and orchestration 
+    of multiple annotators.
+   </p>
+   <p>
+	So the major goal of UIMA is to transform unstructured information to structured 
+	information by orchestrating analysis engines to detect entities or relations and thus to build the 
+	bridge between the unstructured and the structured world.
+   </p>
+   <p>
+     <table width="100%"><tr><td align="center" valign="middle">
+       <img src="./images/getting-started/analytics-world.jpg" alt="analytics world" border="0"/>
+     </td></tr></table>
+   </p>
+   <p>
+	The Apache UIMA incubator project provides two Apache licensed UIMA framework implementations, 
+	one for Java and one for C++.
+   </p>
+
+	</subsection>
+  
+   <subsection name="What Can UIMA Be Used For">
+   <p>
+	 There are lots of use cases where UIMA may be applicable. One of the major ones are search applications. 
+	 Within search applications, the unstructured content that is available mainly as text in various kinds 
+	 must be processed and analyzed to be searchable. To obtain a powerful search application, the text 
+	 content must be analyzed to get the document language followed by language dependent linguistic 
+	 processing such as tokenization, lemmatization and part of speech detection. After these steps a 
+	 more sophisticated analysis like entity detection and relation detection between entities can be done. 
+	 For all these analysis steps UIMA and UIMA components can be used.
+   </p>
+   <p>
+     Another important use case is business or government intelligence. For example, UIMA analysis is used 
+     to extract structured information from car repair reports.  This data is then used for quality feed-back 
+     and problem early warning systems.
+   </p>
+   <p>
+     Other possible solutions where UIMA can be used for are the analsyis of call center notes to detect product 
+     problems and customer issues or a public image monitoring solution to find out how others for example in internet
+     forums or press releases think about my product or company.
+   </p>
+  </subsection>
+ 
+   <subsection name="Install UIMA">
+   <p>
+	 To get started with UIMA, you first have to install the Apache UIMA release package. 
+	 The packages are available at the UIMA <a href="downloads.html">download page</a> in different data formats for different platforms. 
+	 To install UIMA, download the perferred packages and unzip the binary distribution package to a target directory of your choice. 
+	 After unzipping the package, create an UIMA_HOME environment variable that points to the target 
+	 directory where you have unzipped the release package. If you haven't already set a JAVA_HOME variable, 
+	 create a JAVA_HOME environment variable that points to a JDK (Java Development Kit) of your choice. UIMA requires at least a 
+	 Java level 1.4 to run. For more details about the supported Java versions, please refer to the README document of the
+	 release package.
+   </p>
+   <p>
+     If you want to have the UIMA script files in the PATH environment variable of your system you additionally have to add 
+     $UIMA_HOME/bin (or for Windows %UIMA_HOME%\bin) to your PATH settings.
+   </p>
+   <p>
+     Now the installation of UIMA is finished and all the tooling should work properly. 
+     To use the provided examples you have to perform an additional step to 
+     adjust the examples to your UIMA installation directory. To do that, just run the 
+     <code>adjustExamplePaths.sh</code> (or for Windows .bat) script in the <code>bin</code> subdirectory of your UIMA installation.
+   </p>
+  </subsection>
+ 
+   <subsection name="Running The UIMA Analysis Example">
+   <p>
+	 UIMA comes with many examples for the different UIMA components and artifacts that can be created. 
+	 All these examples are explained and used in the UIMA documentation when the specific components or 
+	 artifacts are introduced. The UIMA analysis example that we want to use now is a combination of 
+	 some of these example components that shows a basic document analysis using UIMA.
+   </p>
+   <p>
+     To run the UIMA analysis example, we use the UIMA DocumentAnalyzer tooling that comes with the UIMA SDK. 
+     The tool can run UIMA analysis components (also know as annotators) on a given set of text documents 
+     and shows the result of the analysis run at the end.
+   </p>
+   <p>
+     To start the UIMA DocumentAnalyzer, start the <code>documentAnalyzer.sh</code> (or for Windows .bat) file located in the <code>bin</code> 
+     subdirectory of your UIMA installation. The DocumentAnalyzer window pops up where the following values 
+     must be set to run the UIMA analysis example:
+  </p>
+  <p>
+	 Input Directory: <code>&lt;UIMA_HOME>/examples/data</code><br></br>
+	 Output Directory: <code>&lt;UIMA_HOME>/examples/data/processed </code><br></br>
+	 AE XML Descriptor: <code>&lt;UIMA_HOME>/examples/descriptors/analysis_engine/UIMA_Analysis_Example.xml </code><br></br>
+  </p>
+  <p>
+	Replace &lt;UIMA_HOME> above with the path of your Apache UIMA installation directory. In the sample screenshot below, the Apache
+	UIMA installation directory was "C:\programme\apache-uima".
+  </p>
+  <p>
+   <table width="100%"><tr><td align="center" valign="middle">
+     <img src="./images/getting-started/run_config.jpg" alt="DocumentAnalyzer run configuration" border="0"/>
+   </td></tr></table>
+  </p>
+  <p>
+	To analyze the doccuments, click the "Run" button, which should, after a brief pause, pop up an "Analyzed Results" window. 
+  </p>
+  <p>
+   <table width="100%"><tr><td align="center" valign="middle">
+     <img src="./images/getting-started/analyzed_docs.jpg" alt="Analyzed Documents view" border="0"/>
+   </td></tr></table>
+  </p>
+  <p>
+    To display the analysis results for one of the documents, just double-click the desired document. 
+    The important one for the UIMA analysis example is the Apache_UIMA.xmi file. 
+    When you open this document from the result list, you will see different kind of annotations such as:
+  </p>
+  <p>
+    <ul>
+	  <li>EmailAddress annotations</li>
+	  <li>Name annotations</li>
+	  <li>PersonTitle annotations</li>
+	  <li>Sentence annotations</li>
+	  <li>Token annotations</li>
+	</ul>
+  </p>
+  <p>
+    When selecting the check-box for those annotations the highlighting in the text for those 
+    annotations can be turned on or off.
+  </p>
+  <p>
+   <table width="100%"><tr><td align="center" valign="middle">
+     <img src="./images/getting-started/annotations.jpg" alt="DocumentAnalyzer annotation view" border="0"/>
+   </td></tr></table>
+  </p>
+  <p>
+    This concludes the exercise.  You may wish to experiment by submitting text of your own for analysis.  
+	To do that you can use the DocumentAnalyzer in the interactive mode. Just click the "Interactive" button instead
+	of the "Run" button when you have entered the settings for the analysis example as seen in the screenshot above.
+  </p>

+    <img src="./images/getting-started/interactive.jpg" alt="DocumentAnalyzer interactive mode" border="0"/>
+  </td></tr></table>
+  </p>
+  <p>
+    When clicking the "Analyze" button your text will be analyzed and you will see the analysis results  
+    in the annotation view in the same way as for the example above.
