Thank you for your reply.
I looked through a couple of papers in this domain and it seems that 
they are mostly about practical solutions rather than a problem of 
portability in general. The papers are mostly about training corpora 
adaptation for machine learning approach, while portability in general 
affects all kinds of systems (rule based, semi-supervised, unsupervised...)
I'm looking for a general description of the problem, possibly including 
some metrics of a system's portability.

Regards,
Taras
