I have seen similar numbers before, and the problem is that they cover all occupations. I think we need numbers that are more specific to Fri, 05 Feb 2010 18:22:26 GMT Matthew http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/VoiceCoder/message/6117 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/VoiceCoder/message/6117 Take a look at this link: http://www.jan.wvu.edu/media/CTDs.html , which reports: "CTDs [Cumulative Trauma Disorders] account for more than 50 percent of all Fri, 05 Feb 2010 18:13:48 GMT Frank Olaf Sem-jacobsen http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/VoiceCoder/message/6116 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/VoiceCoder/message/6116 I like the way you think. So based on the number I quoted previously, an employee spends on average 1.1 days on sick leave per year. If we assume six weeks Fri, 05 Feb 2010 16:52:10 GMT Bruce Cyr http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/VoiceCoder/message/6115 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/VoiceCoder/message/6115 I think that's the wrong metric. Calculate the cost of RSI injuries per year for a given company, normalize to costs per employee day, multiply by the total Fri, 05 Feb 2010 15:21:14 GMT Frank Olaf Sem-jacobsen http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/VoiceCoder/message/6114 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/VoiceCoder/message/6114 Hi everyone, I have been silent for a while now while working out the initial stages of a project proposal for the programming by voice project. In order to Wed, 20 Jan 2010 21:32:26 GMT Desilets, Alain http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/VoiceCoder/message/6113 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/VoiceCoder/message/6113 ... I concur. In VoiceCode, we were able to implement commands like "do the following", without any deep syntactic understanding. We used simple regexp to Wed, 20 Jan 2010 19:40:41 GMT Mark Lillibridge http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/VoiceCoder/message/6112 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/VoiceCoder/message/6112 ... Why do I care? Allow all possibilities in all contexts. Realistically, there will always be some contexts (e.g., a search and replace operation, Wed, 20 Jan 2010 16:31:28 GMT Jonathan Sachs http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/VoiceCoder/message/6111 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/VoiceCoder/message/6111 ... I don't think you've thought this through. In Java, for example, a "word" can be a type name, a property (variable) name, or a method name.

What will be the benefits and trade-offs Thu, 14 Jan 2010 14:38:17 GMT Desilets, Alain http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/VoiceCoder/message/6109 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/VoiceCoder/message/6109 ... I agree. It's important that the system enable mixing of speech and keyboard. One issue with that is that if the user types while a voice command is still Thu, 14 Jan 2010 06:38:46 GMT Jonathan Sachs http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/VoiceCoder/message/6108 http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/VoiceCoder/message/6108 ... Let's go for the big game. If create an interface that makes programming easier for people who have no disabilities, the tools will grow like mushrooms. Wed, 13 Jan 2010 17:15:08 GMT Eric S.

I have found a four page paper which describes it pretty good, but I'm looking for more details.
