Abstract

BBN's responsibility is to conduct research and development in natural language interface technology. This responsibility has three aspects:• to demonstrate state-of-the-art technology in a Strategic Computing application, collecting data regarding the effectiveness of the demonstrated heuristics,• to conduct research in natural language interface technology, as itemized in the description of JANUS later in this note, and• to integrate technology from other natural language interface contractors, including USC/Information Sciences Institute, the University of Pennsylvania, and the University of Massachusetts.
