Multi-Modal Dialogue in Mobile Environments June 17 - 21, 2002 Kloster Irsee, Germany |
|
Workshop Themes |
The workshop focuses on research issues, applications and tools concerned with the following interdisciplinary topics which are all part of general research and development of the main areas of multi-modal dialogue in mobile environments and on mobile platforms and devices.
Papers
may discuss theories, applications, evaluation, limitations, general tools
and techniques. Discussion papers that critically evaluate approaches or
processing strategies and prototype demonstrations are especially welcome.
