A multimodal presentation planner for a home entertainment environment

Abstract

In this paper we outline the design and the implementation of the multimodal presentation planner PMO, which is part of the EMBASSI intelligent user interface for home entertainment devices. We provide details about the concepts we use to produce cohesive and coherent output as well as illustrate the software architecture of the PMO. We compare our approach with the state of the art in presentation planning and conclude with an illustration of our future work.
