Abstract

This paper describes the use of the Direct Memory Access (DMA) paradigm in a practical natural language interface. Advantages and disadvantages of DMA in such applications are discussed. The DMA natural language interface 'DM-COMMAND' described in this paper is being used for development of a knowledge-based machine translation system at the Center for Machine Translation (CMT) at Carnegie Mellon University.
