Abstract
In an interactive on-line system such as an airline reservation system, users communicate with the system via smart devices. Communication between the device and the system is via asynchronous TCP/IP messaging or SMS text message. The user can input text messages which include metadata to assist in message recognition. A translator parses the message and converts the message into an industry standard format which is then sent to a relevant system for processing. The translator may form a part of an application on the device, be located at the system or at an intermediate point. A response from the system is converted from industry standard format to a human readable form and sent as asynchronous message or SMS/MMS text message back to the user where it may be displayed as text of converted into speech.
