Zusammenfassung
This paper presents a model-driven development approach to rapidly create multimodal dialogue applications for new domains. A reusable and consistent base model and generic processes inside a multimodal dialogue framework enable advanced dialogue phenomena and allow for a scenario- and domain-specific customization without the necessity to adapt the core framework. We introduce declarative adaptation and extension points within the discussed models for input interpretation, output presentation, and semantic content in order to easily integrate new modalities, domain-specific interactions, and service back-ends. Three multimodal dialogue applications for different use-cases prove the practicability of the presented approach.
