Pausing A VoiceXML Dialog Of A Multimodal Application
First Claim
1. A method for pausing a VoiceXML dialog of a multimodal application, the method implemented with the multimodal application operating on a multimodal device supporting multiple modes of interaction including a voice mode and one or more non-voice modes, the multimodal application operatively coupled to a VoiceXML interpreter, the VoiceXML interpreter interpreting the VoiceXML dialog to be paused, the method comprising:
- generating by the multimodal application a pause event;
responsive to the pause event, temporarily pausing the dialogue by the VoiceXML interpreter;
generating by the multimodal application a resume event; and
responsive to the resume event, resuming the dialog.

Abstract
Pausing a VoiceXML dialog of a multimodal application, including generating by the multimodal application a pause event; responsive to the pause event, temporarily pausing the dialogue by the VoiceXML interpreter; generating by the multimodal application a resume event; and responsive to the resume event, resuming the dialog. Embodiments are implemented with the multimodal application operating on a multimodal device supporting multiple modes of interaction including a voice mode and one or more non-voice modes, the multimodal application is operatively coupled to a VoiceXML interpreter, and the VoiceXML interpreter is interpreting the VoiceXML dialog to be paused.
