Abstract

In this paper we describe the extension of the EasyDial developer interface of Dialogos, the spoken dialog system of Loquendo. EasyDial has been integrated with an XML-based representation of data structures and procedural knowledge which are dependent on the application domain. A set of XSLT programs translates this knowledge into textual data andClanguage procedures which are integrated in Dialogos after the processing by EasyDial. The adoption of an XML-based representation for declaring the domain dependent knowledge speeds up the application development process significantly.
