The Inquiry Engine within VCP-based online
services
Dialogue structures, quality assessment services
as well as user characteristics and other user
profiling and reply-interpretation factors are
added by the application designer into the
definition service of the inquiry engine. The
content structures are then converted into a
personalised user service in form of a set of
information presentations and question handling
service elements. Collected replies can then be
processed both internally and externally.
14
Composer Engine features
The outcomes from an inquiry in terms of path
selections, relevance indications and replies to
survey questions are converted dynamically by the
composer engine into online presentation
materials that can be interacted with by the
user, individually or as group reviews/actions.
Any number of composer applications can be
interconnected to an inquiry application. One
inquiry can also be interconnected to other
inquiries in a chain of interactive dialogues.
