Abstract:
In the collaborative research-project MONA we have developed a technology that enables device independent authoring of user interfaces for mobile applications. The key innovation consists in the capability of the MONA Multimodal Presentation Server to adapt not only graphical user interfaces, but also to support speech input and output that combine with a visual interface on a range of different mobile terminals, to deliver multimodal applications. This increases the versatility of mobile applications. With MONA technology, users can now continue an application session during intermittent mobile, hands-busy or eyes-busy situations.
