Abstract
In this contribution we look back on the last years in the history of telephone-based speech dialog systems. We will start in 1993 when the world wide first natural language understanding dialog system using a mixed-initiative approach was made accessible for the public, the well-known EVAR system from the Chair for Pattern Recognition of the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg. Then we discuss certain requirements we consider necessary for the successful application of dialog systems. Finally we present trends and developments in the area of telephone-based dialog systems.
