Natural Language Semantics Markup Language
By
Deborah A. Dahl
Natural
Language Semantic Markup Language (NLSML) is an XML-based
markup for representing the meaning of a natural language
utterance. With NLSML, applications can have a standardized
way of representing the output from a speech recognizer
in terms that are meaningful to a dialog manager such
as a VoiceXML interpreter. Although NLSML isn't widely
used yet, it has great potential for playing a role
in supporting richer and more complex interactions between
users and systems in the future.

profound effect on not only IVR and traditional-telephony
applications but also on extending the enterprise and
consumer applications to be accessed by voice.
