Abstract

See full text

A method and apparatus for defining an interface for a system using voice commands to connect a first user to a second user over a network. The interface receives a request to define the interface for a particular user. The interface receives a first information item, and searches at least one database for a second information item indexed by the first information item. Another search is performed for a third information item indexed by the second information item. This process is continued until the interface has gathered sufficient information items to construct a natural language grammar for use by the interface. The interface uses the natural language grammar to parse commands given by the user for future communications connections.
