Command Language For Supervisory Control Of Mining Teleoperation

This paper presents a knowledge-based user interface model system for support of a mining teleoperation. The model makes extensive use of non-verbal sentential structures (NVSS). The NVSS is built with the GURU/sup tm/ expert system and natural a language processing shell. Conceptually, the elements of the NVSS are built around the user intentions which allow knowledge representation about mining tasks as finite state grammars of behavioral as well as task trajectories. A prototype dialogue-based interaction system known as OASIP (Open Architecture for System Interaction Platform) is developed. OASIP is an adaptive system that exploits several sources of environmental knowledge from built-in blackboard cells.
