Abstract
In this chapter we define the notion of multimedia conversational system and provide a classification schema for characterizing the type of content which can be produced, stored and retrieved with these systems. This classification schema will be used in reviewing the capabilities of a number of existing multimedia conversational systems and to assess requirements for advanced indexing and retrieval of conversational content. To meet these requirements, we present new types of indexing techniques and provide an evaluation of their effectiveness on real case studies.
