The data management system, developed in the ESPRIT Project 2589 "Multilingual Speech Input/Output Assessment, Methodology and Standardisation" (SAM), has been designed to be implemented on a PC-based workstation using a commercial RDBMS. The environment developed using a relational data structure allows a high integration between data referring to speech characteristics and results obtained during the test of recognisers. On this data structure a set of tools will be developed to allow both to design and to generate tests through a direct interaction with the database; result scoring and analysis will be integrated in the environment as well.
