This paper describes the Automatic Dictation product announced in November 92 for 5 major languages and summarizes the pilot experiments conducted between 1989 and 1992 in different application areas. The IBM Speech Server Series is based upon the Tangora technology and can run on a standalone RS/6000 environment or in a network environment with an RS/6000 server and PS/2 or RS/6000 clients. It features a Starter Set vocabulary of more than 20,000 entries, to which a few thousands entries can be added by a user. Experiments were conducted in 5 different areas throughout Europe: Banking, Insurance, Legal, Health and Technical Documentation. Resulls confirmed the system accuracy in a real environment. Benefits for the user are both quantitative in terms of productivity and qualitative in terms of user friendliness.
