Syntax, semantics and pragmatics in communication
Christoph Brandt, Marcus Kracht · 2011
We develop a conceptual and formal understanding of syntax, semantics and pragmatics in communication from the point of view of (theoretical) computer science as well as (computational) linguistics. We motivate our understanding with the help of a real-world application scenario, apply it to a concrete example related to (business) dialogues in service oriented landscapes and finally point out how our results are related to the Semantic Web ecosystem in a way that is providing basic concepts for an emerging Pragmatic Web.
