[emma] AT&T Implementation Report for EMMA 1.0 Specification

<system-report name="AT&T EMMA Implementation Report">
        <testimonial>
       
        <p><b>Executive Summary</b></p>
       
        <p>
        AT&T recognizes the crucial role of standards in the
        creation and deployment of next generation services supporting
        more natural and effective interaction through spoken
        and multimodal interfaces, and continues to be a firm supporter
        of W3C's activities in the area of spoken and multimodal standards.
        As a participating member of the W3C Multimodal Interaction
        working group, AT&T welcomes the Extensible Multimodal Annotation (EMMA)
        1.0 Candidate Recommendation.
        </p>
       
        <p>
        EMMA 1.0 provides a detailed language for capturing the
        range of possible interpretations of multimodal inputs and their
        associated metadata through a full range of input processing stages,
        from recognition, through understanding and integration, to
        dialog management. The creation of a common standard for
        the representation of multimodal inputs is critical in enabling
        rapid prototyping of multimodal applications, facilitating
        interoperation of components from different vendors, and
        enabling effective logging and archiving of multimodal
        interactions.
        </p>
       
        <p>
        AT&T is very happy to contribute to the further progress of the
        emerging EMMA standard by submitting an EMMA 1.0 implementation report.
        EMMA 1.0 results are already available from an AT&T
        EMMA server which is currently being used in the development
        of numerous multimodal prototypes and trial services.

        <p><b>Technical Details</b></p>
       
        <p>Suggest use of emma:literal for raw recognition results as well as for
        literal semantic results from language understanding.</p>
       
        <p>Request removal of test 1501 since the use of emma:uninterpreted to
        indicate below threshold input is not described in the EMMA specification.
        </p>
       
        <p>Request removal of tests 902 and 903 since these constraints on the
        resource attribute on emma:derived-from are not described in the EMMA
        specification.
        </p>

    <p>Request removal of test assertion 801 for inline emma:model since
        this test contradicts the EMMA schema, in which emma:model can only be
        a child of emma:emma.</p>
