The power of data to support digital transformation within the context of e-Government is frequently underestimated. In this exploratory research, we develop a conceptual framework where the value of data stems from how it is used. We claim that the impact of digital transformation in the public sector presupposes an organisational culture that recognises and values data-in-use, by which is meant the practical application of data for a specific purpose, particularly by staff who deliver services. Through the lens of two ‘worldviews’ of data sharing, we present case studies of data use in two local authorities in Scotland. We claim that developing a culture where data is leveraged to derive insights for organisational activity requires combining working practices and technical infrastructure that centre on co-creating value with data. The presence of data intermediaries can support effective data-in-use to establish a healthy internal data ecosystem. Our research illustrates that local authorities within Scotland are still at an early stage of developing this culture.

Acoustic data can be a source of important information about events and the environment in modern cities. To date, much of the focus has been on monitoring noise pollution, but the urban soundscape contains a rich variety of signals about both human and natural phenomena. We describe the CitySounds project, which has installed enclosed sensor kits at several locations across a heavily used urban greenspace in the city of Edinburgh. The acoustic monitoring components regularly capture short clips in real-time of both ultrasonic and audible noises, for example encompassing bats, birds and other wildlife, traffic, and human. The sounds are complemented by collecting other data from sensors, such as temperature and relative humidity. To ensure privacy and compliance with relevant legislation, robust methods render completely unintelligible any traces of voice or conversation that may incidentally be overheard by the sensors. We have adopted a variety of methods to encourage community engagement with the audio data and to communicate the richness of urban soundscapes to a general audience.

A dominant narrative around the Internet of Things (IoT) asserts that value will be realized by using resources more efficiently and by creating a better 'user experience'. On the basis of a small qualitative study of reactions by employees to having their workplace monitored by networked sensors, we offer three guidelines to help ensure that smart office IoT initiatives incorporate a broader set of values and beneficiaries. We suggest that environmental monitoring in the workplace can create more value for ‘users' and reduce the risk of adverse reactions if employees are more actively involved in the design and communication process.

Data is considered to play a critical role in realising the UN’s Sustainable Devel opment Goals (SDGs), including Goal 7, to "ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all." Employing the ‘big data revolution’ for sustainable development has seen efforts to identify and prioritise the most significant areas for investment, and efforts to monitoring and track progress toward achieving the SDGs. Drawing on our research on energy data in Kenya and broader questions surrounding the role of data in development and society, this research brief outlines key questions and opportunities in the study and use of energy data in the Global South. We discuss how new approaches to collecting, curating, sharing and communicating data can play a central role in supporting holistic development centred around access to sustainable energy. We suggest that these approaches can help to ensure that the social and economic value created from energy data directly benefits energy users and is developed within a governance framework that pro-actively addresses privacy concerns as well as equitable access.

Mapping functional requirements first to specifications and then to code is one of the most challenging tasks in software development. Since requirements are commonly written in natural language, they can be prone to ambiguity, incompleteness and inconsistency. Structured semantic representations allow requirements to be translated to formal models, which can be used to detect problems at an early stage of the development process through validation. Storing and querying such models can also facilitate software reuse. Several approaches constrain the input format of requirements to produce specifications, however they usually require considerable human effort in order to adopt domain-specific heuristics and/or controlled languages. We propose a mechanism that automates the mapping of requirements to formal representations using semantic role labeling. We describe the first publicly available dataset for this task, employ a hierarchical framework that allows requirements concepts to be annotated, and discuss how semantic role labeling can be adapted for parsing software requirements.

This chapter presents a summary of work on text mining (TM) of historical documents for the discovery of 19th century trade in the British Empire as part of the Digging into Data (http://www.diggingintodata.org) project TRADING CONSEQUENCES (http://tradingconsequences.blogs.edina.ac.uk). The project aimed to assist environmental historians in understanding the economic and environmental consequences of commodity trading during the 19th century. We applied TM to large quantities of historical text, converting unstructured textual information into structured data. The structured data was used to populate a relational database that is in turn the back end for querying and different types of online visualisations. We will discuss some of the challenges involved when processing digitised historical text which originally appeared in printed form.

In the Trading Consequences project, historians, computational linguists and computer scientists collaborated to develop a text mining system that extracts information from a vast amount of digitized published English-language sources from the “long nineteenth century” (1789 to 1914). The project focused on identifying relationships within the texts between commodities, geographical locations and dates. We explain the methodology, uses and the limitations of applying digital humanities techniques to historical research and argue that interdisciplinary approaches are critically important in addressing the technical challenges that arise. We believe that collaborative teamwork of the kind described here has considerable potential to produce further advances in the large-scale analysis of historical documents.

Wouldn’t it be helpful if your text editor automatically suggested papers that are contextually relevant to your work? We concern ourselves with this task: we desire to recom- mend contextually relevant citations to the author of a paper. A number of rhetorical annotation schemes for academic articles have been developed over the years, and it has often been suggested that they could find application in Information Retrieval scenarios such as this one. In this paper we investigate the usefulness for this task of CoreSC, a sentence-based, functional, scientific discourse annotation scheme (e.g. Hypothesis, Method, Result, etc.). We specifi- cally apply this to anchor text, that is, the text surrounding a citation, which is an important source of data for building document representations. By annotating each sentence in every document with CoreSC and indexing them separately by sentence class, we aim to build a more useful vector-space representation of documents in our collection. Our results show consistent links between types of citing sentences and types of cited sentences in anchor text, which we argue can indeed be exploited to increase the relevance of recommendations.

An increasing number of everyday tasks involve a mixture of human actions and machine computation. This paper presents the first framework that allows non-programmer users to create and execute workflows where each task can be completed by a human or a machine. In this framework, humans and machines interact through a shared knowledge base which is both human and machine understandable. This knowledge base is based on the prohow Linked Data vocabulary that can represent human instructions and link them to machine functionalities. Our hypothesis is that non-programmer users can describe how to achieve certain tasks at a level of abstraction which is both human and machine understandable. This paper presents the prohow vocabulary and describes its usage within the proposed framework. We substantiate our claim with a concrete implementation of our framework and by experimental evidence.

Large-scale digitization efforts and the availability of computational methods, including text mining and information visualization, have enabled new approaches to historical research. However, we lack case studies of how these methods can be applied in practice and what their potential impact may be. Trading Consequences is an interdisciplinary research project between environmental historians, computational linguists, and visualization specialists. It combines text mining and information visualization alongside traditional research methods in environmental history to explore commodity trade in the 19th century from a global perspective. Along with a unique data corpus, this project developed three visual interfaces to enable the exploration and analysis of four historical document collections, consisting of approximately 200,000 documents and 11 million pages related to commodity trading. In this article, we discuss the potential and limitations of our approach based on feedback from historians we elicited over the course of this project. Informing the design of such tools in the larger context of digital humanities projects, our findings show that visualization-based interfaces are a valuable starting point to large-scale explorations in historical research. Besides providing multiple visual perspectives on the document collection to highlight general patterns, it is important to provide a context in which these patterns occur and offer analytical tools for more in-depth investigations.

The Web is one of the major repositories of human generated know-how, such as step-by-step videos and instructions. This knowledge can be potentially reused in a wide variety of applications, but it currently suffers from a lack of structure and isolation from related knowledge. To overcome these challenges we have developed a Linked Data framework which can automate the extraction of know-how from existing Web resources and generate links to related knowledge on the Linked Data Cloud. We have implemented our framework and used it to extract a Linked Data representation of two of the largest know-how repositories on the Web. We demonstrate two possible uses of the resulting dataset of real-world know-how. Firstly, we use this dataset within a Web application to offer an integrated visualization of distributed know-how resources. Lastly, we show the potential of this dataset for inferring common sense knowledge about tasks.

A Linked Data Scalability Challenge: Concept Reuse Leads to Semantic Decay. Paolo Pareti, Ewan Klein and Adam Barker.
In Proceedings of the ACM Web Science Conference. 2015.
[
bib
| abstract
]
The increasing amount of available Linked Data resources is laying the foundations for more advanced Semantic Web applications. One of their main limitations, however, remains the general low level of data quality. In this paper we focus on a measure of quality which is negatively affected by the increase of the available resources. We propose a measure of semantic richness of Linked Data concepts and we demonstrate our hypothesis that the more a concept is reused, the less semantically rich it becomes. This is a significant scalability issue, as one of the core aspects of Linked Data is the propagation of semantic information on the Web by reusing common terms. We prove our hypothesis with respect to our measure of semantic richness and we validate our model empirically. Finally, we suggest possible future directions to address this scalability problem.

A growing number of approaches and tools have been utilised attempting at generating hypertext content with embedded metadata. However, little work has been carried out on finding a generic solution for publishing and styling Web pages with annotations derived from existing RDF data sets available in various formats. This paper proposes a metadata-driven publishing framework assisting publishers or webmasters in generating semantically-enriched content (HTML pages or snippets) by harnessing distributed RDF(a) documents or repositories with little human intervention. This framework also helps users to create and share so-called micro-themes, which is applicable to the above generated content for the purpose of page styling and also highly reusable thanks to the adopted semantic attribute selectors.

Current discussions of social machines rightly emphasise a human’s role as a crucial part of a system rather than a user of a system. The human ‘parts’ are typically considered in terms of their aggregate outcomes and collective behaviours, but human participants are rarely all equal, even within a small system. We argue that due to the complex nature of online identity, understanding participants in a more granular way is crucial for social machine observation and design. We present the results of a study of the personas portrayed by participants in a social machine that produces creative media content, and discover that inconsistent or misleading representations of individuals do not necessarily undermine the system in which they are participating. We describe a preliminary framework for making sense of human participants in social machines, and the ongoing work that develops this further.

This work investigates how automated methods can be used to classify social media text into argumentation types. In particular it is shown how supervised machine learning was used to annotate a Twitter dataset (London Riots) with argumentation classes. An investigation of issues arising from a natural inconsistency within social media data found that machine learning algorithms tend to over fit to the data because Twitter contains a lot of repetition in the form of retweets. It is also noted that when learning argumentation classes we must be aware that the classes will most likely be of very different sizes and this must be kept in mind when analysing the results. Encouraging results were found in adapting a model from one domain of Twitter data (London Riots) to another (OR2012). When adapting a model to another dataset the most useful feature was punctuation. It is probable that the nature of punctuation in Twitter language, the very specific use in links, indicates argumentation class.

This paper presents the first framework for integrating procedural knowledge, or “know-how”, into the Linked Data Cloud. Know-how available on the Web, such as step-by-step instructions, is largely unstructured and isolated from other sources of online knowledge. To overcome these limitations, we propose extending to procedural knowledge the benefits that Linked Data has already brought to representing, retrieving and reusing declarative knowledge. We describe a framework for representing generic know-how as Linked Data and for automatically acquiring this representation from existing resources on the Web. This system also allows the automatic generation of links between different know-how resources, and between those resources and other online knowledge bases, such as DBpedia. We discuss the results of applying this framework to a real-world scenario and we show how it outperforms existing manual community-driven integration efforts.

Choreographing Web Services with Semantically Enhanced Scripting. Xi Bai, Ewan Klein and Dave Robertson.
In 2012 IEEE/WIC/ACM International Conferences on Web Intelligence and Intelligent Agent Technology. 2012.
[

| abstract

Several solutions to describing service choreography have emerged, mainly focused on encoding capabilities of services especially for those deployed on the Web. These solutions are either derived from traditional Web service standards such as WSDL or inspired by the theory of process calculus. Little attention has however been paid to finding a lightweight solution which can enable peers to obtain, publish and share service choreography in an open environment or peer-to-peer network. This paper proposes a framework for choreographing semantically enhanced Web Services encoded in a extended lightweight coordinative language which is derived from process calculus and is dedicated to running in modern Web browsers. A proof-of-concept prototype has been implemented and demoed as a decentralised service choreography-management platform based on this framework. There is no need for users to install any third-party application, and service choreography execution is achieved via client-side Web browsers. Also, the preliminary experiments indicate the efficiency and scalability of our proof-of-concept implementation of this framework.

RDFa2: Lightweight Semantic Enrichment for Hypertext Content. Xi Bai, Ewan Klein and Dave Robertson.
In The Semantic Web. 2012.
[
bib
| abstract
]
RDFa is a syntactic format that allows RDF triples to be integrated into hypertext content of HTML/XHTML documents. Although a growing number of methods or tools have been designed attempting at generating or digesting RDFa, comparatively little work has been carried out on finding a generic solution for publishing existing RDF data sets with the RDFa serialisation format. This paper proposes a generic and lightweight approach to generating semantically-enriched hypertext content by embedding RDF triples derived from diverse provenances in terms of a concept of topic nodes which will be automatically recommended by our discovery algorithm. RDFa2 is a proof-of-concept implementation for our approach and works as an online platform assisting Web content publishers in semi-automatically generating, personalising and curating pages with RDFa. RDFa2 has been introduced and employed by students in a master level course and the experimental results as well as additional case studies indicate the validity of this approach to generating triple-embedded Web documents such as online profiles and vocabularies with little user intervention.

Although text mining shows considerable promise as a tool for supporting the curation of biomedical text, there is little concrete evidence as to its effectiveness. We report on three experiments measuring the extent to which curation can be speeded up with assistance from Natural Language Processing (NLP), together with subjective feedback from curators on the usability of a curation tool that integrates NLP hypotheses for protein-protein interactions (PPIs). In our curation scenario, we found that a maximum speed-up of 1/3 in curation time can be expected if NLP output is perfectly accurate. The preference of one curator for consistent NLP output and output with high recall needs to be confirmed in a larger study with several curators.

Background: The tasks in BioCreative II were designed to approximate some of the laborious work involved in curating biomedical research papers. The approach to these tasks taken by the University of Edinburgh team was to adapt and extend the existing natural language processing (NLP) system that we have developed as part of a commercial curation assistant. Although this paper concentrates on using NLP to assist with curation, the system can be equally employed to extract types of information from the literature that is immediately relevant to biologists in general. Results: Our system was among the highest performing on the interaction subtasks, and competitive performance on the gene mention task was achieved with minimal development effort. For the gene normalization task, a string matching technique that can be quickly applied to new domains was shown to perform close to average. Conclusion: The technologies being developed were shown to be readily adapted to the BioCreative II tasks. Although high performance may be obtained on individual tasks such as gene mention recognition and normalization, and document classification, tasks in which a number of components must be combined, such as detection and normalization of interacting protein pairs, are still challenging for NLP systems.

Over the last few years, language technology has moved rapidly from ‘applied research’ to ‘engineering’, and from small-scale to large-scale engineering. Applications such as advanced text mining systems are feasible, but very resource-intensive, while research seeking to address the underlying language processing questions faces very real practical and methodological limitations. The e-Science vision, and the creation of the e-Science Grid, promises the level of integrated large- scale technological support required to sustain this important and successful new technology area. In this paper, we discuss the foundations for the deployment of text mining and other language technology on the Grid — the protocols and tools required to build distributed large-scale language technology systems, meeting the needs of users, application builders and researchers.

The growth of online scientific literature, coupled with the growing maturity of text processing technology, has boosted the importance of text mining as a potentially crucial tool. However, there are several challenges to be addressed before sophisticated text mining services can be deployed within emerging workflow environments. Our work contributes at two levels. At the invocation level, we have developed a flexible XML-based pipeline architecture which allows non-XML pro- cessors to be readily integrated. At the description/discovery level, we have developed a broker for service composition, and an accompanying domain ontology, that leverage the OWL-S approach to service profiles.

Humans explaining a task to a robot use chunks of actions that are often complex procedures for robots. An instructable robot needs to be able to map such chunks to existing pre-programmed primitives. We investigate an architecture used in spoken dialogue systems that is able to extract executable robot procedures from user instructions. A suitable representation of route instructions is introduced, then a Procedure Specification Language (PSL) is described that allows to extract from the semantic representation of the dialogue both the robot executable procedures and their parameters.

How will naive users program domestic robots? This paper describes the design of a practical system that uses natural language to teach a vision-based robot how to navigate in a miniature town. To enable unconstrained speech the robot is provided with a set of primitive procedures derived from a corpus of route instructions. When the user refers to a route that is not known to the robot, the system will learn it by combining primitives as instructed by the user. This paper describes the components of the Instruction-Based Learning architecture and discusses issues of knowledge representation, the selection of primitives and the conversion of natural language into robot-understandable procedures.

Godot is a mobile robot platform that serves as a testbed for the interface between a sophisticated low-level robot navigation and a symbolic high-level spoken dialogue system. The interesting feature of this combined system is that information flows in two directions: (1) the navigation system. supplies landmark; information from the cognitive map used for the interpretation of the user’s utterances in the dialogue system; and (2) the semantic content of utterances analysed by the dialogue system are used to adjust probabilities about the robot’s position in the navigation system.

In an attempt to accommodate natural language phenomena involving nominalization and self-application, various researchers in formal semantics have proposed abandoning the hierarchical type system which Montague inherited from Russell, in favour of more flexible type regimes. We briefly review the main extant proposals, and then develop a new approach, based semantically on Aczel’s notion of Frege structure, which implements a version ofsubsumption polymorphism. Nominalization is achieved by virtue of the fact that the types of predicative and propositional complements are contained in the type of individuals. Russell’s paradox is avoided by placing a type-constraint on lambda-abstraction, rather than by restricting comprehension.

We present a proposal for treating default reasoning from the perspective of a dynamic approach to semantics, where meaning is a mapping between information states. Information states are identified with sets of possible worlds—the epistemic possibilities which those states admit. Generic rules, like On weekdays, Giles normally gets up at 8.00 are then taken to induce a pre-order on possible worlds, where worlds complying with the rules are less exceptional than those which go against the rules. Thus, a particular weekday on which Giles gets up at 8.00 is less exceptional than one on which he stays in bed till noon. Unlike many other approaches to nonmonotonicity, we draw a distinction at the level of the object language between defeasible and indefeasible conclusions.

This volume in the Basic Research Series consists of the proceedings of the Symposium on Natural Language and Speech held during the ESPRIT Conference of November 1991 - a conference that serves to open up ESPRIT results not only to the ESPRIT community but also to the entire European IT industry and its users. The symposium is organised by the newly launched Network of Excellence on Language and Speech (3701) which brings together the foremost European experts and institutions in these two domains. By bringing together these two communities, which have so far been working in relative isolation from each other, the network aims to augment the focusing of research onto the long-term goal of the "construction of an integrated model of the cognitive chain linking speech to reasoning via natural language". To advance towards this industrially significant goal, the network operates at different levels - a strategy for research, a coordination for the training of needed researchers and a coordination of the use of its resource and communication infrastructure for the most efficient interworking of the members of the community who are spread all over Europe. This symposium is a small but significant building block for the achievement of the goals of the network.

A Graphical and Logical Language for a Simple Design Domain. Luis A. Pineda and Ewan H. Klein.

[
.pdf |
bib
| abstract
]
In this paper a logical and graphical language for representing CAD knowledge in a simple design domain is presented. The language is useful for designing 2-dimensional wire-frame diagrams of the sort that are common in architectural and other kinds of drawings. The language allows the definition and interpretation of graphical symbols that are explicitly drawn on the screen, as well as the representation of other context-dependent space partitions that receive an interpretation in terms of the graphical context from which they emerge. For the identification of these emerging graphical objects we introduce the notion of intension of a graphical symbol. In addition, the language supports the definition and representation of construction lines. This facility is particularly useful for modelling causal relations between possible design states in the definition and production of design inferences.

]
One of the major innovations within post-SPE generative phonology has been the development of frameworks where phonological units are organized in a non-linear fashion. Taking autosegmental phonology (Goldsmith, 1976) as our main exemplar of such frameworks, we wish to address the following question: What is the appropriate interpretation of autosegmental representations? There is, of course, a further question about what we mean by INTERPRETATION: formal, phonetic or computational interpretation? Although we will concentrate on the first of these, we believe that all three aspects should be regarded as closely inter-connected and mutually constraining. The question of interpreting autosegmental representation has in fact been recently posed by Sagey (1988), and we shall take her proposal as our starting point. While it is uncontroversial to suppose that the relationship between units on a given autosegmental tier is one of temporal precedence, Sagey claims that it is more problematic to pin down what is meant by association between tiers. She argues, cogently we believe, that if association is taken to be a relationship of simultaneity between durationless units, then standard analyses of complex segments and gemination lead to logical inconsistency. Instead, association should be taken as temporal OVERLAP between units with duration.

The 6th ESPRIT Conference is being held in Brussels from the 27th November to the 1 st December 1989. Well over 1500 participants from all over Europe are expected to attend the various events during the week. The Conference will offer the opportunity to be updated on the results of ongoing Esprit projects and to develop Europe-wide contacts with colleagues, both within a specific branch of Information Technology and across different branches. The first three days of the week are devoted to presentations of Esprit I projects, structured into plenary and parallel sessions; this year there is special emphasis on panels and workshops where participants can exchange ideas and hold in-depth discussions on specific topics. The different areas of Esprit work are covered: Microelectronics, Informa\-tion Processing Systems, Office and Business Systems, Computer Integrated Manufac\-turing, Basic Research and different aspects of the Information Exchange System. During the IT Forum on Thursday 30th November, major European industrial and political decision-makers will address the audience in the morning. In the afternoon, different aspects of Technology Transfer will be discussed with the participation of outside experts, and presentations on the future plans for community R&D in IT will take place.

Unification Categorial Grammar (UCG) combines the syntactic insights of Categorial Grammar with the semantic insights of Discourse Representation Theory. The addition of unification to these two frameworks allows a simple account of interaction between different linguistic levels within a constraining, monostraial theory. The resulting, computationally efficient, system provides an explicit formal framework for linguistic description, within which large fragments of grammars for French and English have already been developed. We present the formal basis of UCG, with independent definitions of well-formedness for syntactic and semantic dimensions. We will also focus on the concept of modifier within the theory.

This paper describes an experimental interactive graphics interface, GRAFLOG, in which drawings receive linguistic interpretations. It is possible to emulate linguistic interaction in situations where graphics is thought to be necessary. The paper presents examples of such a kind of dialogue and the architecture of the implementation. The paper explains how representations of drawings can be constructed by treating graphical symbols as “objects”, and how a parallel linguistic interpretation for these symbols can be constructed. It highlights the relevance of “deictic expressions” and “spatial prepositions” in building the interface mechanisms between these two kinds of representations. Lastly, it shows how a reasoning component is constructed for making deductions from premises that are found in both the graphical and linguistic domains. Using GRAFLOG, it is possible to represent knowledge through words and pictures. GRAFLOG is implemented, using an object oriented programming style, in PROLOG and GKS.

Generalized Phrase Structure Grammar. Gerald Gazdar, Ewan Klein, Geoffrey K. Pullum and Ivan A. Sag.
1985, Harvard University Press, .
[

| abstract
]
Generalized Phrase Structure Grammar provides the definitive exposition of the theory of grammar originally proposed by Gerald Gazdar and developed during half a dozen years’ work with his colleagues Ewan Klein, Geoffrey Pullum, and Ivan Sag. This long-awaited book contains both detailed specifications of the theory and extensive illustrations of its power to describe large parts of English grammar. Experts who wish to evaluate the theory and students learning GPSP for the first time will find this book an invaluable guide.The initial chapters lay out the theoretical machinery of GPSP in a readily intelligible way. Combining informal discussion with precise formalization, the authors describe all major aspects of their grammatical system, including a complete theory of syntactic features, phrase structure rules, meta rules, and feature instantiation principles. The book then shows just what a GPSP analysis of English syntax can accomplish. Topics include the internal structure of phrases, unbounded dependency constructions of many varieties, and coordinate conjunction–a construction long considered the sticking point for phrase structure approaches to syntax.The book concludes with a well developed proposal for a model theoretic semantic system to go along with GPSP syntax. Throughout, the authors maintain the highest standards of explicitness and rigor in developing and assessing their grammatical system. Their aim is to provide the best possible test of the hypothesis that syntactic description can be accomplished in a single-level system. And more generally, it is their intention to formulate a grammatical framework in which linguistic universals follow directly from the form of the system and therefore require no explicit statement. Their book sets new methodological standards for work in generative grammar while presenting a grammatical system of extraordinary scope.

The aim of this project, due to begin in January 1982 under the auspices of Grant HR 7829/1 from the SSRC (UK), is to design, evaluate, and debug a computer realization of a generalized phrase structure grammar for a very large fragment of English. The realization will be in a form which is neutral with respect to parsing or generating sentences, and which is capable of being used with a variety of programs. Programs written in POP2 and PROLOG will be used to test the grammar.

We provide evidence that the capacity of young children to engage in social interaction exceeds that suggested by Piaget (1926). Rather than being collective monologues, the conversations between the subjects of this study (twin boys) were dialogues: the children attended to one another’s utterances and provided relevant responses. This was observed for conversations which were referentially based as well as for sound play exchanges. This is not to say that the children experienced no difficulty in sustaining cooperative discourse. It could take a speaker several turns to secure the attention of the coconversationalist and establish a discourse topic.
