The product is scheduled for availability on <a href=\"http:\/\/sourceforge.net\/\">sourceforge.net<\/a> as a free download in late April 2007. A commercial version, with additional enhancements and support options, will be available from the Commetrex website in early summer. The interpreter is a updated version of OpenVXi from Carnegie Mellon University, originally developed by Speechworks (Scansoft), with a number of enhancements made to the code, including a DTMF recognizer and re-defining the ASR\/TTS layers to facilitate MRCP implementations.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is the first component of a full open-source VoiceXML browser product offering, scheduled for later this year,&#8221; stated Tom Ray, EVP, sales and marketing for Commetrex.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The addition of a VoiceXML capability to BladeWare is part of our overall development plan for BladeWare to add the IMS-specified Media Resource Function Controller (MRFC) capability to our existing BladeWare MRFP to form a comprehensive implementation of the Media Resource Function (MRF). Our VoiceXML offerings will be available both as stand-alone open-source components and as a fully integrated solution. Furthermore, given the current market dynamics in the VoiceXML space, we thought the time was right to introduce a new open-source alternative geared toward exciting new applications, such as mobile search and other high-demand, natural language applications,&#8221; Ray added.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In conjunction with this announcement, Commetrex announced the addition of a key member to the Commetrex Board of Advisors, Mike Dickerson, currently SVP &amp; GM, eMarketing Solutions, Premiere Global Services, Inc., and the former CEO of Vocalocity, a leading provider of VoiceXML components to the OEM marketplace.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We are honored to have this telecom-industry leader join our team,&#8221; said Mike Coffee, CEO, Commetrex Corporation. &#8220;His industry depth, market knowledge, and experience will have a significant impact on how we launch our VoiceXML initiative and address the broader IMS marketplace.&#8221;[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css_animation=&#8221;&#8221; row_type=&#8221;row&#8221; use_row_as_full_screen_section=&#8221;no&#8221; type=&#8221;grid&#8221; angled_section=&#8221;no&#8221; text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; background_image_as_pattern=&#8221;without_pattern&#8221; el_class=&#8221;press_release_inner_page&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1578991890670{padding-top: 70px !important;padding-bottom: 70px !important;}&#8221; z_index=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column el_class=&#8221;press_release_inner_page_bg&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h3><strong>About\u00a0<em>BladeWare<\/em><sup>\u2122<\/sup><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><em>BladeWare<\/em><sup>\u2122<\/sup>\u00a0is an open-architecture media server, which means developers can use the\u00a0<em>BladeWare<\/em><sup>\u2122<\/sup>\u00a0APIs to develop proprietary applications, and even use \u201cbelow-the-API\u201d developer\u2019s kits to extend BladeWare\u2019s functionality.
