Natural Language-Mediated Software Agentification
Michiaki Iwazume, Ichiro Kobayashi, Michio Sugeno · Journal of Advanced Computational Intelligence and Intelligent Informatics · 2006
The digital divide is growing among pros and tyros as information technology (IT) becomes increasingly disseminated. The concept of “everyday-language computing” has been proposed [8] as a solution to this problem. We focus will focus on agentifying and verbalizing software applications and propose a scheme for operating and running them. We have designed the basic language application interface (LAPI) architecture to manipulate and manage conventional computer applications through language, devised a linguistic model of software functions and actions, and implemented a prototype to evaluate our ideas on software verbalization.
