What does and does not constitute a dialog system may be debatable. The typical GUI Wizard does engage in some sort of dialog, but it includes very few of the common dialog system components, and dialog state is trivial. COMPONENTS There are many different architectures for dialog systems. What sets of components are included in a dialog system, and how those components divide up responsibilities differs from system to system. Principle to any dialog system is the Dialog Manager , which is a component or set of components that manages the state of the dialog.
In addition to the components above, which a part of the dialog system proper, there are often other components involved. These other components are common to many computer systems.
TYPES OF SYSTEMS Dialog systems fall into many categories, the following is a list of such categories along a few dimensions. Many of the following categories overlap and the distinctions may not be well established.

Notable Systems See http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~dbohus/SDS/, http://www.ling.gu.se/~sl/dialogue_links.html, and http://www.disc2.dk/tools/opSLDSs.html. ACADEMICS The study of dialog systems is commonly considered a branch of Human-computer Interaction , although its origins are generally rooted in the Automatic Speech Recognition community. Current trends are putting more research emphasis on aspects of Psychology and Linguistics . Topics
