Abstract
Mayordomo is a multimodal dialogue system developed to ease user interaction with home appliances using speech and a GUI interface. Octopus is an operating system designed to provide ubiquitous access to computing resources using the Internet as the interconnection means. In this paper we describe the main characteristics of both systems as well as our ongoing work to use both systems in conjunction for operation in an Ambient Intelligence environment.
