Abstract: Reports on work which established a suitable metric
        for the intelligibility of synthetic speech, before
        examining methods for the improvement of speech
        recognition performance.  Having addressed the
        problems and issues involved in the technology of
        speech-based systems, the volume asks the question:
        what else is required to produce a truly
        conversational computer?  After an investigation of
        the Speech Acts and related language theories, the
        authors look at systems designed to cope with natural
        language requests, offering a case study for a
        quasi-natural language interface to a speech-based
        system describing the technique of conversational
        analysis.  The book concludes with a review of lessons
        learned to date and of prospects for the future of the
        conversational computer.
