Abstract

We report on the experience gained in building large-scale research prototypes of fully integrated multimodal dialogue systems in the context of the SmartKom project. The development of such systems requires a flexible software architecture and adequate software support to cope with the challenge of system integration. A practical result of our experimental work is an advanced integration platform that enables flexible reuse and extension of existing software modules and that is able to deal with a heterogeneous software environment. Starting from the foundations of our general framework, we give an overview of the SmartKom testbed, and we describe the practical organization of the development process within the project.
