AB  - The popularity of internet and availability of online resources has increased the demand for
generating precise summary to be extracted from single or multiple sources. This has also necessitated the need
for intensive research in the area of automatic text summarization. Over several decades, the knowledge scarcity
problem has been addressed in different perspectives with varied domains and using different paradigms. This
study intends to investigate some of the most relevant approaches for summarizing technical documents
emphasizing empirical methods and extractive techniques for generating summaries of technical documents.
The results were also tested with commercial summarizers and the investigation seems to be promising in terms
of precision and recall.
