First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for speech enabling an application comprising the steps of:
- specifying a speech input with a speech-enabled markup;
defining within said speech-enabled markup at least one operation of an application that is to be executed upon a detection of said specified speech input;
after said defining step, instantiating said application;
detecting said specified speech input; and
executing said application operation responsive to said detecting step.

Abstract
A method for speech enabling an application can include the step of specifying a speech input within a speech-enabled markup. The speech-enabled markup can also specify an application operation that is to be executed responsive to the detection of the speech input. After the speech input has been defined within the speech-enabled markup, the application can be instantiated. The specified speech input can then be detected and the application operation can be responsively executed in accordance with the specified speech-enabled markup.

-
specifying a speech input with a speech-enabled markup;
defining within said speech-enabled markup at least one operation of an application that is to be executed upon a detection of said specified speech input;
after said defining step, instantiating said application;
detecting said specified speech input; and
executing said application operation responsive to said detecting step. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)

10. A speech-enabled application comprising:
-
a graphical user interface element configured to initiate at least one application operation responsive to a predefined graphical user interface event;
a speech-enabled markup associated with said graphical user interface element that specifies said application operation is to be performed responsive to a speech input; and
a markup interpreter configured to interpret said speech-enabled markup and initiate said application operation responsive to said speech input. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A machine-readable storage having stored thereon, a computer program having a plurality of code sections, said code sections executable by a machine for causing the machine to perform the steps of:
-
specifying a speech input with a speech-enabled markup;
defining within said speech-enabled markup at least one operation of an application that is to be executed upon a detection of said specified speech input;
after said defining step, instantiating said application;
detecting said specified speech input; and
executing said application operation responsive to said detecting step. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23)

24. A system for speech enabling an application comprising:
-
means for specifying a speech input with a speech-enabled markup;
means for defining within said speech-enabled markup at least one operation of an application that is to be executed upon a detection of said specified speech input;
means for instantiating said application after said defining step;
