Call Control eXtensible Markup Language

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by 77.180.19.127 (talk) at 19:19, 2 April 2009 (Tutorial for CCXML developers). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

Call Control eXtensible Markup Language (CCXML) is an XML standard designed to provide telephony support to VoiceXML. Its current status is a W3C Working Draft, adopted 19 January 2007. Where as VoiceXML is designed to provide a Voice User Interface to a voice browser, CCXML is designed to inform the voice browser how to handle the telephony control of the voice channel. The two XML applications are wholly separate and are not required by each other to be implemented - however, they have been designed with interoperability in mind

Status and Future

  • CCXML 1.0 has not yet reached the status of a recommendation. The current version is Last Call Working Draft (20 January 2007). The publication of the document as a Candidate Recommendation is expected soon.
  • As CCXML uses extensively the concepts of events and transitions, it is expected that the State machines used in the next CCXML 2.0 version will take advantage of a new XML State Machine notation called SCXML (currently also in draft).

Implementations

  • Oktopous™ ccXML Platform Integration Kit is the first Linux based comprehensive ccXML "light weight" tool kit offering, that conforms to the latest Working Draft specification of CCXML 1.0 published by W3C in January 2007. Oktopous™ enables developers to take advantage of well-known Web technologies and tools when building their telephony and speech applications.
  • Open Source Oktopous™ PIK an abstract, C++ implementation of the W3C Call Control XML (ccXML) standard. Licensed under a BSD-Style license, the toolkit is independent of the underlying telephony platform / protocols and is best suited for OEM / System Integrators looking to implement ccXML functionality in their product offerings. Originally developed by Phonologies, Oktopous™ has been adopted by more telephony platforms than any open source ccXML Browser.
  • CCXML4J a CCXML Interpreter in Java according to the W3C specification. It is independent of the telephony infrastructure and provides mechanisms to integrate with telephony APIs, e.g. based on the JAIN specifications.
