System and method for concurrent multimodal communication using concurrent multimodal tags
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for multimodal communication comprising:
- analyzing fetched modality specific instructions for at least one modality associated with a first user agent program to determine if the modality specific instructions include a concurrent multimodal tag (CMMT); and
if detected, providing modality specific instructions for at least a second user agent program operating in a different modality, based on the concurrent multimodal tag.

Abstract
A method and apparatus, during a session, analyze fetched modality specific instructions for at least one modality associated with a first user agent program to determine if the modality specific instructions include a concurrent multimodal tag (CMMT); and if detected, provide modality specific instructions for at least a second user agent program operating in a different modality, based on the concurrent multimodal tag. Synchronization of output from the first and second user agent programs is carried out based on the modality specific instructions.

6. A multimodal network element comprising:
-
a markup language form interpreter operative to interpret a concurrent multimodal tag (CMMT) associated with modality specific instructions; and
providing modality specific instructions for at least a second user agent program operating in a different modality, based on the concurrent multimodal tag.; and
a multimodal synchronization coordinator, operatively coupled to the markup language form interpreter, and operative to synchronize output from the first and second user agent programs based on the modality specific instructions.
