Sun Microsystems, Inc. has worked in partnership with leading speech technology
companies to define the specifications for the Java Speech API and the Java
Speech Markup Language (JSML). These companies bring decades of research on
speech technology and experience in the development and use of speech
applications. Sun is grateful for the contributions of:
- Philips Speech Processing
- Texas Instruments Incorporated
Acknowledgments
JSML has benefited from many previous initiatives to mark up speech output, but
two deserve particular mention for using an SGML-like syntax: work at
Edinburgh University (Taylor, P. A. and Isard, A., SSML: A speech synthesis
markup language, Speech Communication 21 (1997) p. 123-133) and the
Massachusetts Institute of Technology (Slott, J. M., A General Platform and
Markup Language for Text to Speech Synthesis, MIT Masters Thesis, 1996).
