Abstract
This article presents the speech understanding and dialog system EVAR. All levels of linguistic knowledge are used both to control the analy sis process and for the interpretation of an utterance. All kinds of k nowledge are integrated in a homogeneous knowledge base. The control a lgorithm used for the analysis is defined within the representation sc heme and does not depend on the application. One of the aims of EVAR i s to develop a system structure where linguistic and nonlinguistic exp ectations could be used not only for the interpretation but also as pr edictions for the recognition process.
