Abstract

In a computer system, a dialog management system (DMS) provides a bridge between a business application, based on a linear processing model, and a human-computer interface (HCI) based on an event-driven processing model. The DMS comprises a set of inventories, which are used to gather and receive application parameters and HCI information asynchronously, to allow sets of data items to be assembled.
