We present BioVXML as an extension of the Voice Extensible Markup Language (VoiceXML). BioVXML is designed for creating modules of biometric verification while maintaining all the features and capabilities of the original VoiceXML. The user verification can now be performed by processing different biometric traits, such as speech or face, and these features gives us an assurance of the user identity, whereas traditional methods such as written passwords do not. BioVXML provides facilities to develop any monomodal or multimodal biometric recognition system, and it simplifies the creation of remote access control to information systems. We also show how BioVXML can be used in a practical system like an e-learning platform.
