Maybe the parsers that you refer are tools enabling the extraction of semantic statements from textual description portions of strategy documents. Not to confuse with an XML parser (strategy encoding / schema format). For this approach I can mention Apache Stanbol (stanbol.apache.org), Apache Tika and Apache Any23 among others. It is also possible to render those kind of parsers needless if strategy documents where allowed to have microformats / semantic / LOD annotations in them (a la www.schema.org). Otherwise I'm currently finding hard to see where strategies and semantics fits, beyond a serialization format and without the benefits of LOD / Alignments Augmentations. I'm really enthusiastic to find out more about this subjects. Some examples and learning resources will be greatly appreciated.
