+Introduction of Parser Project
+============================
+
+In NFV, various templates (such as descriptors, records and so on) are utilized
+to describe the deployment requirements (such as basic VM requirements – vCPU,
+memory, storage, as well as the NFV acceleration management requirement such as
+Huge Pages support, SR-IOV, NUMA affinity, DPDK support etc.),
+the post-instaniation records (such as storage usage report, CPU performance
+report etc.) or other purposes. However in order to make these templates
+adaptable and feasible for purpose like deployment orchestration/automation,
+certain tooling mechanism that provides template translation is necessary.
+
+Project Parser will help to provide such tooling mechanism, by parsing Telecom
+operators’ descriptors/records into TOSCA/CAMP templates and then further
+translate TOSCA/CAMP templates into certain common templates, which could be
+used in IaaS orchestration projects like OpenStack Heat.
+
+For Release B, Parser offers the following capabilities:
+* Integration of Heat-Translator Liberty release code. (both heat in-tree code and standalone package are provided)
+* Yang2Tosca module which offers the capability to translate yang based
+scriptors to tosca formate templates. Users could further use Heat-translator
+module to translate this tosca template to Heat Orchestration template.
+Yang2Tosca module could be installed seperately after user installed
+OPNFV B release platform.
+* Use Case Analysis documents which include RNC use case analysis and Parser keyword proposal.
