The structure of the Hearsay system based on a set of cooperating, independent processes using the hypothesize-and-test paradigm is presented. Design considerations for the effective use of multiprocessor and network architectures in speech understanding systems are presented: control of processes, interprocess communication and data sharing, resource allocation, and debugging are discussed. Keywords: speech recognition, speech understanding, system organization, networks, multiprocessors, parallel processing, real-time systems, hardware for AI, software for AI.","doi":null,"url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1973/25","pdf":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1973/0025.pdf","markdown":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1973/25.md","bibtex":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1973/bibtex/25","volume":{"slug":"1973","title":"Proceedings of the Third International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence","short_title":"IJCAI 1973","url":"https://ijcai.org/proceedings/1973/","year":1973,"location":"Stanford, California, USA","dates":"20-23 August 1973","editors":"Nils J.
