[Olympus developers 67]: olympus dialog system code walkthroughs

[Thomas K Harris]

Hi,

Since Antoine is soon to be departing CMU :( we'll have some code 
walkthoughs of the Olympus code that he knows best. Our schedule is:

Friday 5th @ 11-12: An overview
Monday 8th @ 11-12: The Interaction Manager
Wednesday 10th @ 11-12: Ravenclaw

And they will take place in Wean 3123.
> Here is the (likely) program for the first seminar. (the 5th)
>
> - Where to find documentation: a brief guide to the Olympus Wiki
> - Overview of Galaxy servers: basic structure, what you need to make 
> your own server (NB: this will be very short and by no means a 
> comprehensive guide to Galaxy. Just a quick overview to introduce the 
> next part)
> - Input and output of the main Olympus Galaxy services/service providers:
> - Audio Server (including ASR)
> - Parser
> - Confidence Annotator
> - Interaction Manager
> - Dialog Manager
> - Natural Language Generator
> - Speech Synthesizer
> The idea here is to provide enough information to 1) understand the 
> overall flow of information in a typical Olympus system, 2) replace 
> one of the servers by your own (e.g. your own parser).
>
> Optionally, I might go through the log tools:
> - WebDialogBrowser
> - LogParsers
> if time permits. Otherwise that might be postponed to a later talk. 

Thanks,
-Thomas
