1. A system comprising:

  • a processing device; and

    a storage resource storing instructions which, when executed by the processing device, cause the processing device to;

    receive text-based or voice-recognized words input by a user to a particular physical device;

    interpret the text-based or voice-recognized words in a manner that is independent of the particular physical device to obtain a device-independent candidate meaning for the text-based or voice-recognized words, the device-independent candidate meaning being applicable to a plurality of different physical devices;

    interpret the text-based or voice-recognized words in a manner that is dependent on the particular physical device to obtain a device-dependent candidate meaning for the text-based or voice-recognized words;

    generate final interpretation results by ranking the device-independent candidate meaning for the text-based or voice-recognized words relative to the device-dependent candidate meaning for the text-based or voice-recognized words and selecting one of the device-independent candidate meaning or the device-dependent candidate meaning as the final interpretation results; and

    output the final interpretation results.
