Abstract

The paper describes a software demo integrating Natural Language Generation (NLG) techniques with recent developments in XML web technology. The NLG techniques include a form of template-based generation, transformation of text plan trees to text specification trees, and a multi-stage pipeline architecture. The web technology includes XSLT transformation processors, an XML database, a Java servlet engine, the Cocoon web publishing framework and a Java speech synthesizer. The software is all free, open-source.
