    Abstract

    We wrote this IBM Redpaper to be an interoperability guide for integrating WebSphere Voice Server for Multiplatforms V5.1.2/V5.1.3 and Cisco Customer Voice Portal V3.1. We give you a broad understanding of how open standards like VoiceXML, Media Resource Control Protocol (MRCP), Speech Recognition Grammar Specification (SRGS) and Speech Synthesis Markup Language (SSML) are used.

    In this paper, we consider best practices as applied to Voice User Interface (VUI) design. We implement and deploy a simple voice-enabled application using Cisco Customer Voice Portal that will interoperate with WebSphere Voice Server V5.1.2/V5.1.3.

    We demonstrate how to develop, test, and deploy a simple voice-enabled application using the VoiceXML markup language. We also demonstrate the use of Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) and Text to Speech (TTS) voice technologies through examples.

    With this paper, you can tailor and configure WebSphere Voice Server and Cisco Customer Voice Portal to interoperate in simple and complex topologies.

    We assume you have a basic knowledge of Interactive Voice Response (IVR) systems and voice-enablement of applications using VoiceXML, Cisco Customer Voice Portal, WebSphere Voice Server, and WebSphere Application Server.
