1. Creating interfaces XML & XSL review VoiceXML: grammar Homework: postings, presentation, study guide

2. XML General format for data. Intended for use between people and applications and between applications and applications. XSLT: language (itself XML format) for transforming XML, –one use being XML to HTML. The resulting HTML can use JavaScript. –XML to WML –XML to VoiceXML (probably less common, but this use could grow)

3. XML Used ‘server side’ with php or asp or ColdFusion or older technologies: cgi/perl Used with/by Flash Used ‘client side’ by JavaScript Used with 'Web services'

4. Preview Next Fall, new course on Java and connections (title not set) Peter Ohring probably evening upper-level math/cs elective

5. XML format for holding content (independent of formatting and use) Not the only one! Consider –relational databases –linked lists –general graphs (nodes with any number of links, possibly cycles) –?

6. "XML Languages" XSLT WML VoiceXML There are now also XML specifications for books, purchase orders, math, etc.

7. VoiceXML Grammars Use / study grammars in Tellme studio Note: GRXML, alternative form of grammar that is an XML format will probably replace GSL, currently used by Tellme Look up: bargein, n-best Specifying numeric keys: dtmf Setting multiple values

8. Grammars Parentheses indicate ‘and’ (sequence of words) Square brackets (within an option) indicate ‘or’ ? Indicates optional: zero or 1 occurrence * indicates any number of occurrences + indicates one or more occurrences [(math ?(computer science))] accepts math math computer science [purchase pace] accepts purchase pace

9. Questions Give a grammar that accepts "Tom", "Dick", or "Harry" Give a grammar that accepts "Bill Clinton", "Hilary Clinton", "President Clinton" Give a grammar that would distinguish between the 41 st president and the 43 rd president.

10. DTMF The grammar mode default setting is both voice and dtmf. dtmf-1 means to accept caller hitting 1 key Use grammar tools in My Studio for help generating the keys to represent letters

11. <![CDATA[ [ [yes dtmf-1] { } [ no dtmf-2 ] { } ] ]]> Say yes or no Press 1 or say yes or press 2 or say no. You said

12. Letter correspondences In My Studio, click on Grammar Tools and then DTMF and the system will generate sequences (and let you know if there are problems) Here are 3 letter sequences for these two choices: 1.dtmf-6 dtmf-2 dtmf-8 math 2.dtmf-6 dtmf-3 dtmf-9 new media

13. Setting multiple values [(math ?computer)] { } [(new media)] { }

14. Tellme MyStudio: 1-800-555-VXML You need to give 5 digit plus 4 digit pin For all of us to use your project, we need –you to upload all files to your rachel account (or some other website) –you to tell us the URL of the xml file

15. Homework Postings (on other people’s projects) Projects: Be prepared to give demonstration and turn in (hardcopy) description and, –if you are doing VoiceXML, your URL –If doing a Web page, the URL Review guide to final
