System and methods for dynamic integration of a voice application with one or more Web services

摘要

A system is provided for leveraging a Web service to provide access to information for telephone users. The system includes a first network service node for hosting the Web service, an information database accessible from the service node, a voice terminal connected to the first service node, and a service adaptor for integrating a voice application executable from the voice terminal to the Web service. In a preferred aspect, the service adaptor subscribes to data published by the Web service and creates code and functional modules based on that data and uses the created components to facilitate creation of a voice application or to update an existing voice application to provide access to and leverage of the Web service to telephone callers.
