VoiceObjects

VoiceObjects is a science topic covered in the lgStudy science library. This page brings together a partial reference excerpt, illustrations, worked examples, real-world applications and a short study plan, so you can understand VoiceObjects rather than just read about it. In short: VoiceObjects is a company that produces VoiceXML-based self-service phone portals which personalize each caller's experience and provide mobile access that integrates speech recognition, touch-tone response, texting and mobile web. History The company's products are based on a new software architecture for delivering voice portals that leveraged industry standards for the Internet such as VoiceXML, SQL, Eclipse, SNM…

Key takeaways

VoiceObjects belongs to science; place it in that map before memorising details.
Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
Connect VoiceObjects to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
Reproduce the core statement of VoiceObjects from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

VoiceObjects is a company that produces VoiceXML-based self-service phone portals which personalize each caller's experience and provide mobile access that integrates speech recognition, touch-tone response, texting and mobile web.

History The company's products are based on a new software architecture for delivering voice portals that leveraged industry standards for the Internet such as VoiceXML, SQL, Eclipse, SNMP, XML, Java, and SOA. In 2007, the company introduced software to support text-based applications for mobile phones using the USSD standard over GSM wireless networks as well as software to support Web-based applications for mobile phones with Web browsers supporting the XHTML 1.0 standard.

Products VoiceObjects Desktop - Service Creation Environment VoiceObjects Server - Multi-channel Phone Application Server VoiceObjects Analyzer - Real-time Analysis and Reporting Environment In January 2013 Voxeo has renamed the VoiceObjects product name to Voxeo CXP. A few months later in July 2013 Voxeo has been acquired by Aspect Software and the product offering has been renamed to Aspect CXP Pro. In May 2021 Aspect Software merged with Noble Systems to form Alvaria.

Customers VoiceObjects customers included recognizable names such as Adobe, Deutsche Telekom, Hershey's, Kellogg Company, Lufthansa, and Swisscom. The company's partners included SAP, Nortel, Genesys, Avaya, BEA, Oracle, and IBM.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with VoiceObjects

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what VoiceObjects claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to VoiceObjects before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about VoiceObjects ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of VoiceObjects

In research: VoiceObjects appears in science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses VoiceObjects in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: VoiceObjects is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics Companies established in 2001, Privately held companies based in San Mateo, California, Telecommunications companies of the United States, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for VoiceObjects outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.

Frequently asked questions

What is VoiceObjects in simple terms?

Why does VoiceObjects matter?

Because it connects several science ideas at once: it gives you a definition you can apply, a quantity you can calculate, and a way to check whether a result is plausible.

How should I study VoiceObjects?

Read the excerpt, restate it from memory, then work through the examples and applications listed on this page. The five-step study plan above takes about twenty minutes.
