Abstract
This paper examines the variety of techniques and notations that have been proposed for dialogue specification and control in interactive sy stems. Notations covered include state transition diagrams, grammars, event-based approaches, formal notations and object-oriented technique s. The various advantages and disadvantages of each are indicated, and related user interface software tools are referenced where appropriat e. Dialogue specification in the context of traditional system design is also discussed.
