Abstract

This paper describes SimPhony — a mobile, voice-controlled, voice communication system built on a PDA and designed specifically for distributed workgroups. SimPhony supports one-to-one or one-to-many communication with voice instant messages or synchronous audio transmitted over an IEEE802.11b wireless network, and it transitions between different communication styles as messages become more frequent. The SimPhony interface looks much like an instant messaging client but is accessible through a voice or visual interface on the PDA or a voice interface accessible by any telephone. SimPhony was designed specifically for, and with critique from, technicians working in a large semiconductor fabrication plant.
