In this paper we introduce object oriented dialogues (OODs), a subclass of dialogues where the communicative goal is just the retrieval of information about objects in a particular domain. OODs allow a number of computational simplifications which make them attractive for many information access applications. Starting point for this approach was the TAMIC-P prototype system, which will be briefly presented. Finally, OODs are well suited to be represented as graphic object (e.g. folders and documents), easily guiding the user through the discourse structure and at the same time through parts of the underlying knowledge base: in this way typical problems of discourse ambiguity and domain opacity can be overcome

Abstract

In this paper we introduce object oriented dialogues (OODs), a subclass of dialogues where the communicative goal is just the retrieval of information about objects in a particular domain. OODs allow a number of computational simplifications which make them attractive for many information access applications. Starting point for this approach was the TAMIC-P prototype system, which will be briefly presented. Finally, OODs are well suited to be represented as graphic object (e.g. folders and documents), easily guiding the user through the discourse structure and at the same time through parts of the underlying knowledge base: in this way typical problems of discourse ambiguity and domain opacity can be overcome
