Language and speech meets the HPCC grand challenge
Y. T. Chien · 1992
At a recent NSF workshop on speech understanding, Charles Wayne gave a presentation of Darpa's program on Speech and Language research. Towards the end of his presentation, he enlightened all of us with a brief outline of a possible new technology development program: High Performance Multi-lingual Speech and Text Processing. This is a very exciting and timely initiative, if it comes to that, as many of us in the federal government, NSF included, are preparing to launch new efforts to implement the President's High Performance Computing and Communications (HPCC) program beginning in this fiscal year.
