This study has identified elements, to be considered to suggest the language-communication assessment protocol development platform in the use of service-oriented architecture (SOA) through the group interview with speech pathologists and engineering specialists. The necessity of language-communication assessment protocol development for tablet device has been identified in three domains including the assessment method, mobility, and efficiency & accuracy. However, it was revealed that uniqueness of sub-category of language-communication assessment and environment and expenses of using devices shall be considered at the same time to realize them.
