Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention include techniques for creating voice applications in different design environments and translating voice applications into any runtime environment. A set of rendering engines creates a translation layer that can convert a voice application into any runtime environment. Each rendering engine receives a voice application and converts the voice application into a runtime-specific voice description. The voice description performs the same or similar functions in the selected runtime environment as the original voice application. Voice applications from different design environments may be stored as metadata and translated through one or more steps into different runtime environments.
